Battery Replacement

Handicare batteries typically last two to three years. We supply and fit high-quality replacements that keep your stairlift running smoothly.

Rail and Roller Repairs

Grinding noises, slow runs, or stiff movement on a Handicare usually mean worn rollers or a rail issue. We diagnose and fix both.

Reliable Handicare repairs

Handicare stairlifts, including the ex-Minivator range, are solid, well-built machines. Like any mechanical device, they can develop faults over time. That's where we come in.

🛡 Parts and warranty

We fit genuine Handicare parts where available, and compatible components where they're not. Every job comes with a warranty.

Common Handicare faults we fix

If your Handicare is doing any of these, give us a call. We can help.

  • ✅ Stairlift won't move, or is stuck
  • ✅ Beeping or flashing error codes
  • ✅ Battery not charging, or losing charge quickly
  • ✅ Remote control not responding
  • ✅ Chair not swivelling at the top or bottom
  • ✅ Grinding, squeaking or unusual noises
  • ✅ Footrest stuck, or not folding
  • ✅ Stairlift stops and starts unexpectedly

🔈 Grinding noise means worn rollers

If your Handicare makes a grinding noise on the straight run or around a bend, that usually means the rollers are worn. Another sign is the stairlift suddenly running much slower than usual. Worth getting it looked at quickly, before the rail and carriage suffer further damage.
