Core offering

Lifton Lifts UK designs, manufactures, and installs premium domestic home lifts — the LiftonDUO (compact two-person lift) and the LiftonTRIO (wheelchair-accessible three-person lift). The lifts use a self-supporting dual rail system that requires no load-bearing walls and plug into a standard 13amp power socket, with installation typically completed in one day.

Product overview

Lifton is a UK-based premium home lift brand owned by the Stiltz Group. The product portfolio consists of two main home lift models: the LiftonDUO (compact two-person home lift with less than a square metre footprint, ideal for future-proofing properties) and the LiftonTRIO (larger wheelchair-accessible home lift that accommodates full-sized wheelchairs and carries up to three people). Both products feature self-supporting rail systems, plug-and-play 13amp power socket connection, battery backup, obstruction detection, and a one-year warranty. The lifts are designed for minimal installation disruption, typically completing within one day.

• Acorn Stairlifts: Largest UK direct-to-consumer stairlift company with established field sales and installation operations. Targets the same mobility-challenged homeowner demographic as Lifton and competes indirectly via the through-floor lift category.
• Handicare: International accessibility and stairlift manufacturer with a UK presence, offering straight and curved stairlifts plus homelifts. Overlaps with Lifton on home mobility solutions and aging-in-place buyers.
