Why choose our Stairlifts
Will one fit narrow or steep stairs?
Narrow stairs
The measurement that decides it is the clear width at the tightest point of the flight, not the width where you are standing at the bottom.
Steep stairs
Steepness is rarely what stops a lift going in. The rail follows the pitch of your staircase while the seat stays level the whole way, so you travel upright however sharp the climb is.
Tight at the top or bottom
The usual sticking point is not the stairs themselves but what sits at either end — a door that opens across the foot of the flight, a radiator, or a narrow landing.
Straight stairs
Brooks 130 Slimline
For a staircase that runs in one unbroken flight. At just 190mm wide it is one of the slimmest lifts made, which is what makes it the answer on narrow period stairs.
- Swivel seat locking at 45° or 90°
- Arms, seat and footrest all fold away
- Five sensors — three on the footrest, two on the carriage
- Charge points top and bottom — runs in a power cut
Curved stairs
Brooks 180 Curved
For anything that turns — a quarter turn, a half-landing, a dog-leg or a full sweep. A single low-profile rail is built to match your staircase, so you ride it in one go.
- Self-levelling — adjusts speed and position on corners
- Footrest sits close to floor level with no step up
- Rocker switch on either arm, plus two remote controls
- Inside parking, seatbelt and emergency stop
Outdoor steps
Brooks 130 Outdoor
The same lift, weatherproofed for outside. For front and back steps, side returns and flights down into a garden — where the barrier is the path rather than the staircase.
- Built for permanent outdoor use
- Front steps, side returns, garden flights
- Battery backup — works in a power cut
- Surveyed and quoted free, like everything else
Reconditioned
Reconditioned Brooks 130
Where most reconditioned stock sits, because a straight rail cuts down to fit the next staircase. The cheapest honest route to a quality lift.
- Batteries and charging contacts replaced
- Safety sensors replaced and tested
- Upholstery and trim renewed
- Rail cut to your staircase, then fitted
Rarely available
Reconditioned Brooks 180
Hard to come by, and worth knowing why. A curved rail was bent to one particular staircase and cannot be re-formed for another, so there is very little curved stock anywhere.
- Only where the rail genuinely suits your stairs
- We will tell you when new is the honest answer
- Ask — stock changes week to week
Trade-in
Your old Brooks taken away
Replacing rather than fitting for the first time? Removal of the old lift is inside the quoted price rather than added at the end.
- Removal included in the written quote
- Sound straight lifts go on to be reconditioned
- Tread holes made good on removal
Common fault
Beeping or flashing
Brooks lifts report faults through a code or a beep pattern. Count the beeps or read the display and tell us what it says — it usually tells us what we are coming to.
Common fault
Dying partway up
Brooks lifts charge at points top and bottom. If yours only runs when parked, or fades partway, that is the battery system or the contacts rather than the motor — usually a quick fix.
Common fault
Noise or rough running
Grinding, juddering or uneven travel is the lift telling you something. Better looked at before it stops altogether, particularly on a curved rail where there is no short flight to walk.

The cost of a Brooks stairlift depends on your staircase layout, the model selected and any additional features required. Straight stairlifts are generally less expensive than curved systems. Zengo Mobility can provide a personalised quotation following an assessment.
Reconditioned Brooks stairlifts may be available depending on the model and current stock. A professionally refurbished stairlift can provide a more affordable alternative to buying new. Contact Zengo Mobility to discuss available options.

A Brooks straight stairlift can often be installed within a few hours, depending on your staircase and property layout. Curved Brooks stairlifts may require additional installation time due to their customised rail systems. At Zengo Mobility, we aim to complete every installation efficiently with minimal disruption to your home.
Yes, Brooks stairlifts are designed with compact, space-saving features, making them suitable for many narrower staircases. Folding seats, armrests and footrests help maximise available space when the stairlift isn’t in use. Our team can assess your staircase to determine whether a Brooks stairlift is suitable.
We generally recommend having your Brooks stairlift professionally serviced at least once a year, although servicing requirements may vary depending on usage and manufacturer guidance. Regular maintenance helps identify potential problems, check safety features and keep your stairlift operating smoothly.
In some cases, a Brooks straight stairlift can be removed and reinstalled in another property, provided the staircase dimensions and installation requirements are compatible. Curved stairlifts are more complicated because their rails are manufactured for a specific staircase layout. Zengo Mobility can assess whether relocation is practical and cost-effective.
