stairlifts
Seated incline transporters
Stairlifts is the plural of stairlift—a motorized chair or platform that travels along a rail mounted to a staircase, carrying a person up or down.
Stairlifts allow people with limited mobility to navigate stairs safely: My grandmother finally agreed to have stairlifts installed after her hip surgery.
