DETERMINE OVERALL RAIL
LENGTH
NOTE: Use this only if the rail did
NOT
come pre-cut to
length)
1. Determine any obstructions that will affect
the position and length of the rail. These may
include walls, doors, hallway orientation, etc.
2. Measure the overall length of the stairs from
the nose at the top landing of the stairs to the
floor at the bottom (nose to floor
measurement).
See Figure 4-1.
Figure 4-1
3. For a normal stairway with adequate space
for a landing, add 7" to the nose to floor
measurement. This will provide enough rail
length to allow the stairlift to be adjusted so
that the floor-to-seat height will be the same
at both the top and bottom.
4. If the top landing has restrictions (i.e. a wall or
doorway), use the chart to determine the
length of extension that should be used.
See Figures 4-2 and 4-3.
