Handicare 1100
Handicare 1100 – The Slimmest Straight Stairlift
The Handicare 1100 is the slimmest straight stairlift available, offering a sleek and unobtrusive design. Its super slim rail is the narrowest on the market, taking up less space and leaving more of your stairs visible than any other straight stairlift system.
With a compact, grease-free rail, the 1100 not only fits seamlessly into your home but is also incredibly easy to clean and maintain. Its minimal design ensures that it blends effortlessly with any interior, giving you enhanced mobility without compromising on style or space.
Handicare 1100 How it Works
Stylish compact design
The Handicare 1100 is ultra slim and compact and can be placed close to the wall, leaving a lot of free space on the staircase for other stair users to safely climb the stairs. It’s the slimmest straight stairlift rail on the market! To save even more space, the stairlift seat, footrest and armrests can be folded when not in use. The seat will swivel at the top landing, making sure you can get on and off the stairlift easily and safely. Also, the 1100 comes as standard with safety sensors that will stop the lift in case of obstruction.
Handicare 1100 Slide Track
Safe, strong and reliable
The robust 1100 is powered by Handicare’s patented four wheel drive technology with four quiet and reliable motors. In the unfortunate and rare event one of the motors breaks down, you can still finish your ride up or down the stairs. The lift is fully certified by the international stairlift safety standard EN 81-40 and designed for years and years of carefree daily use. Thanks to the continuous charge functionality you can park the seat anywhere you like on the rail: the batteries are always charged and ready to go.
The 1100 is suitable for users up to max. 140kg.
Easy Hinge
The track can be folded away from the doorway manually, giving clear access.
Slide track
Automatically moves the track clear of any obstacles while the stairlift moves into a parked position. This option is ideal for hallways where access is required through doorways close to the staircase, either at the top or bottom of the stairs.
Zero intrusion
A unique solution designed for home with a door at the top of the stairs. Or where the stairlift could be a possible tripping hazard at the top of the stairs.

FAQs Handicare 1100
Why is the Handicare 1100 considered the best option for narrow staircases?
The Handicare 1100 features the slimmest straight stairlift rail on the market, ensuring it takes up minimal space and leaves more of your stairs visible and accessible for other users. To maximize free space even further, the seat, armrests, and footrest can all be folded away when the lift is not in use.
Is the rail difficult to maintain or keep clean?
No, the Handicare 1100 is designed with a grease-free rail, making it a breeze to keep clean compared to traditional stairlift systems. This compact, clean design allows the lift to blend seamlessly into your home interior without any mess.
What happens if a motor fails while I am using the lift?
This model is built for ultimate reliability using patented four-wheel drive technology powered by four quiet motors. In the rare event that one motor fails, the remaining motors ensure you can still safely finish your journey up or down the stairs. Additionally, the continuous charge functionality means the batteries are always charging regardless of where you park the seat on the rail.
What options are available for doorways or obstructions near the stairs?
We offer three specialist solutions to keep your walkways clear: an Easy Hinge that can be folded away manually, a Slide Track that automatically moves the rail clear of doorways while the lift is in motion, and a Zero Intrusion kit designed specifically for homes with a door or trip hazard at the top of the stairs.
