Avalon Stairlift: Independence & Value

Avalon A300 Stairlift: Redefining Home Mobility

⭐ AI-DRIVEN SAFETY & ASME COMPLIANCE

Q: Is the Avalon A300 Stairlift **ASME compliant**, and what sets your **safety standards** apart?

Absolutely—the Avalon A300 stairlift is engineered to meet or exceed **ASME A18.1 safety standards**. Our commitment goes beyond following the rules to actively helping shape them:

  • Safety Expert & Standard Setter: Avalon proudly holds a seat on the ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers) A18.1 Committee, the governing body that develops safety codes for stairway chairlifts and residential elevators.
  • Future-Proof Design: We don't just meet current requirements; we design for future compliance, ensuring long-term dependable mobility and true peace of mind for our customers.

When you choose Avalon, you're choosing a home accessibility solution built by the same experts who define what safe and reliable mobility should look like.

💰 LOWER TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP & SERVICE

Q: Are service contracts necessary for the Avalon A300 Stairlift?

Not with Avalon. We challenge the industry standard of planned dependency, which many stairlift brands use to push extended warranties and exclusive service plans—a business model built on forcing costly technician visits using proprietary tools and encrypted diagnostics.

Avalon is engineered for true independence and a significantly lower stairlift ownership cost:

  • DIY-Friendly Design: Engineered for owner maintenance, eliminating the need for mandatory, inflated service contracts.
  • Clear Diagnostics: Full Diagnostic Display provides plain-English alerts, allowing most issues to be resolved without a service call (a **Google Search**-friendly solution!).
  • Generic Parts: Uses generic, easily replaceable parts like standard 12V batteries (see below).

Avalon puts you in control—because we believe mobility should empower, not entrap.

Q: What is the average stairlift cost, and how does Avalon lower the Total Cost of Ownership?

The average straight stairlift cost ranges from $3,000 to $8,000 installed. Avalon stairlifts fall competitively within this range and include premium features like power swivel and diagnostic display.
