How AmeriGlide works

AmeriGlide offers mobility aids such as stair lifts, scooters, wheelchairs, walk-in tubs and more. It will ship anywhere in the U.S. and has physical locations in Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.

New stair lifts ship within five business days and are typically delivered to the first floor of your home. Delivery to upper floors may require additional white-glove service. Local third-party installers perform AmeriGlide’s installations.

Instructions are provided if you want to install the stair lift yourself. You can also add on professional installation services.

AmeriGlide products

AmeriGlide provides three kinds of stair lifts:

  • Straight
  • Curved
  • Outdoor

All chairs have swivel seats and a sensor that stops them if an obstacle is in the way. Each chair also has a battery that allows it to remain in use during a power outage.

Straight stair lifts

AmeriGlide offers three models of straight stair lifts:

  • Cardinal Indoor: The Cardinal Indoor is designed for straight staircases. The seat and footrest fold neatly against the wall when not in use. It features a backlit control panel and a removable chair cover. It can lock either at the top or bottom of the stairs. The chair can carry up to 275 pounds. Installation isn’t included with the Cardinal Indoor, and it can’t be self-installed.
  • Rave 2: The AmeriGlide Rave 2 takes up less space on the stairs than the Cardinal Indoor. It only takes up 11 inches when the seat and footrest are folded against the wall. The tracks attach directly to the stairs, not the wall, for increased durability, and the stair lift can carry up to 350 pounds. Installation isn’t included, but the AmeriGlide Rave 2 can be self-installed.
  • Liberty: The rail of the Liberty is only 3 inches, taking up the least amount of space on the stairs, but the chair itself takes up 14 inches, even when folded against the wall. Installation is included.

Curved stair lifts

AmeriGlide offers two models of curved stair lifts:

  • Infinity: The Infinity chair can navigate curved staircases, can carry up to 275 pounds and is 16 inches wide when folded. Installation is included.
  • Rave Curved HD: The path for this chair is customized to your home and can do full 180-degree turns. It can carry up to 350 pounds. Installation is included.

Outdoor stair lifts

AmeriGlide’s outdoor stair lifts come with weatherproof materials and coverings.

  • Cardinal Outdoor: This is the outdoor version of the Cardinal Indoor lift. It can carry up to 275 pounds and can be locked at either the top or the bottom of the stairs. Installation isn’t included, and the lift can’t be self-installed.
  • Deluxe Outdoor: This model comes with three covers to protect it from the weather. It can carry up to 350 pounds if the track is less than 16 feet. If the track is over 16 feet, the weight capacity is 275 pounds. Installation isn’t included, but it can be self-installed.

Additional accessibility products

Along with stair lifts, AmeriGlide offers a wide range of other accessibility and aging-in-place products:

  • Lift chairs: AmeriGlide offers several recliner-style lift chairs, which help you sit down and stand up more easily.
  • Ramps and platform lifts: AmeriGlide offers ramps and platform lifts for indoor and outdoor accessibility. Platform lifts use a motorized platform to raise or lower a wheelchair user or standing passenger between levels.
  • Elevators: AmeriGlide offers elevators that can be installed inside or outside.
  • Dumbwaiters: Dumbwaiters to help you move smaller items up and down floors.
  • Vehicles and vehicle lifts: AmeriGlide offers vehicle lifts for wheelchairs and scooters, along with accessible vehicle conversion kits for trucks and SUVs.
  • Scooters: AmeriGlide offers four different types of mobility scooters and accessories.
  • Pool lifts: A variety of pool lifts designed to lift you in and out of the pool.
  • Power wheelchairs: AmeriGlide has 22 power wheelchairs in its lineup, including lightweight and foldable options.
  • Walk-in tubs: Walk-in tubs from AmeriGlide have ADA-compliant seats and anti-slip surfaces.

All prices are accurate at the time of publishing.

Financing is available for all stair lifts, with 12-, 24- or 36-month terms. Annual percentage rates start at 6.99%.

AmeriGlide offers a best-price guarantee. If you find the same item at a lower price within 10 days of your purchase, it’ll match the lower price and give you a 10% discount.

AmeriGlide warranties and guarantees

New stair lifts come with a two-year warranty on parts and the drivetrain. Factory-reconditioned or used stair lifts come with a one-year warranty. Batteries have a 30-day warranty.

    I recently purchased a new Rave 2 stairlift from AmeriGlide. I was assisted by Abbie B., who did a great job explaining the features of the lift, as well as others, and what the requirements may be for installation. Abbie was patient in her approach with me because I didn’t have an urgent and immediate need. The price point of the unit is attractive when compared to other lifts. I’m glad to have made this purchase and am looking forward to many years of use.

      Jessica from the parts department was very efficient and polite. She ordered my part right away and even got me a small discount which was good since the markup on the part seemed very high. The website for AmeriGlide is pretty useless. I tried to order the part (charging cord) from there and it wasn't listed with any specifications that I could use to verify if the part was correct. It did provide the number to call Jessica who took my order once I was able to reach her.

      Very impressed with the new products. We have been ordering and installing the Ameriglide products for several years. We were using another manufacturer, but have started the path of switching to Ameriglide exclusively. We can highly recommend their dumbwaiters, VPL's and Hercules Hybrid VPL. After both Milton and Helene we had several elevators to replace. We worked with Cameron ** and the engineers and came up with an electronics shelf that was above flood plane which will now save clients replacing their entire unit. It is rare a large manufacturer can turn on a dime to solve a serious problem. We are now switching to their stairlifts from another manufacturer and are looking forward to working with Cameron ** and Ameriglide even more closely.

      I recently purchased a stairlift for my mom and couldn’t be happier with the experience. I chose to install it myself over the weekend, and the process was straightforward with clear instructions and solid support available if needed. By going this route instead of purchasing through a local dealer, we were able to save a significant amount while still getting a high-quality product. The lift works smoothly and has already made a big difference in my mom’s daily life. I would absolutely recommend AmeriGlide to anyone looking for a reliable and cost-effective mobility solution.
