No doubt you imagine growing old in your dream home, enjoying a comfortable retirement in the place you’ve always imagined and finally built… Which is why it’s never too early to think about how you’ll use your house in the years to come, especially considering that almost half of UK adults develop mobility issues in later life. That’s why more and more people are choosing to future-proof their homes now, giving them the peace of mind that they can continue living in their dream homes as they age.
One of the most popular future-proofing adaptations is installing a home lift. By upgrading your home with a stylish lift now, or by adding one into the design when building your house, you can ensure that there will be no need to move going forward. In fact, installing a well-chosen home lift early on means that you and your family will benefit straight away.
Whether you have elderly family members or young children, a home lift ensures that every floor of your house is easily reachable, making daily activities smoother and more inclusive for everyone. Forget the struggle of carrying heavy groceries, furniture, or laundry up and downstairs; a home lift makes these tasks effortless.
Unlike mobility aids like stair lifts, grab handles, and ramps, which can look unattractive and out of place, especially when they’re not yet required, home lifts have come a long way. The latest home lifts complement and enhance the overall look of your home, fitting seamlessly into any property and significantly increasing its value.
At Terry Lifts, we offer a wide range of lifts with a variety of features, meaning you can select the perfect one for you now, and in the future. Perhaps you’re looking for a compact lift with a minimal footprint or a larger lift that can carry a wheelchair or up to three people. All our models can be customised to suit your taste. And with over 50 years of experience designing and manufacturing public access and domestic home lifts here in the UK, you can trust they both meet the highest quality and safety standards and exceed regulatory compliance.
We know space is one of the main challenges in choosing a home lift. So, for more than ten years, we have offered our best-selling product, the Lifestyle Home Lift, which fits discreetly into a corner. However, our newest design, the Affinity Home Lift, has an even smaller footprint especially designed to fit in spaces previously thought impossible, such as alcoves or stairwells. This means it can be installed where others can’t, solving a significant dilemma and making this contemporary, two-person, two-stop standing home lift an exciting development for architects, house builders, and self-builders, not to mention homeowners.
As with all Terry through-floor lifts, it’s attractive, good value, and feature-rich and designed to be discrete, stylish and modern, complementing contemporary interior designs. With laminated safety glass as standard, pressure-sensitive surfaces, safe edges, and easy-to-use manual lowering, every feature has been carefully designed to blend style and comfort with unmatched flexibility. Our products are engineered to safely and comfortably transport you between floors, allowing you to maintain independence and fully enjoy your home.
By planning to install a home lift now – whether in the design of your new home or as part of a major refurbishment or makeover – you’ll be putting into place something that will serve you both now, and for years to come. Doesn’t that sound like a good move?
