The Folding Rail Option

The Patented Harmar Folding rail option provides a mechanical folding railing that folds the railing out of the way of the lower stairs. This is a unique system that allows the stairlift to automatically fold the railing up out of the way as the chair moves up the track. It is uniquely reliable and simple to manage.

Stairlift track extends between 9-12 inches past the bottom step, and often times may intrude into the walkway or landing at the bottom of the stairs.  The folding rail option allows the track to fold up out of the way automatically when the chair moves partway up the track.  Folding rail options are available with some of our curved stair lifts as well.

Visit our Milwaukee accessibility showroom if you’d like to see the a demo model of the Pinnacle straight stairlift folding rail system.
