More than just a lift, the Duo will enhance your life.

A two-person through-floor lift

The Stiltz Duo Home Lift range features practical and efficient two-person lifts that increase mobility and ease everyday tasks.

Our through-floor lifts provide effortless travel between floors and don’t need to be fixed to a wall to operate. It simply plugs into a standard 13-amp power socket and has a self-supporting structure, so no extra weight is placed on the home. This makes it a safe, neat, and discreet alternative to stair lifts and other home lift models.

We’ve installed our Duo Home Lifts in hundreds of homes across the UK, creating a long-term accessible living solution so our customers can make the most of every corner of their space.

The Duo Home Lift simply plugs straight into any normal 13 amp power socket like any other household appliance. Using dual rail technology, the lift is a self-supporting structure so that no extra weight burden is put on the home.

This means the lift can be installed in places where other home lifts will not fit. The clever design also means that installation can be completed in a fraction of the time and at a much lower cost.

Assembled in the UK, the Duo offers unrivalled flexibility in terms of placement in the home and is a safe, neat and discreet alternative to a stairlift. It can be installed in as little as one day* with minimal building work and disruption. From lounge to bedroom or hallway to study, the lift requires a remarkably small space, so the choice is yours.

About Duo Home Lifts

The Duo through-floor lift range is designed to make your life easier, whether you’re starting to struggle with the stairs or want to begin future-proofing your home.

With a commitment to accessible living at the heart of everything we do, our two-person lifts make travel between floors effortless.

Thoughtful features like remote control operation, an obstruction sensor, and an interior telephone help to put your mind at ease as you travel. Internal downlighting illuminates your experience, and each lift comes with a series of safety features to help you stay secure while the lift is in use.

Select from three different models within our Duo range:

  • The Duo Classic
  • The Duo+
  • The Duo ThruCar

Each model is unlike any other conventional lift available as they don’t use hydraulics. Instead, they’re powered by our Stiltz dual-rail technology, which has a self-supporting structure and a maximum weight limit of 170kg. This means the lift can be installed in places where other home lifts may not fit.

Assembled in the UK, the Duo range offers unrivalled flexibility in terms of placement in the home. It requires minimal building work and disruption to install and comes in neutral colours to match any existing home décor scheme. From lounge to bedroom or hallway to study, the Duo range makes home mobility easy.

Features:

  • Whisper Quiet: Without any noisy hydraulics, the Duo+ lift uses a quiet electric drive motor that’s fully hidden in the lift roofspace
  • Small footprint: Covers just 0.55m² in surface area. It’s one of the smallest footprints of any home lift on the market
  • Fast Installation: Lifts are made up of modular sections – standard installs take just one day*.
  • Economical to Use: Plugs into normal 13 amp power socket – like any other household appliance.
  • Unique Dual Rail System: Self-supporting structure – two parallel and vertical guides bear load of the lift.
  • Compact Drive System: Housed at the top of the lift, out of sight – no need for external power pack
  • Standard Finishes: The Duo+ is finished in grey, while the Classic lifts have a neutral cream exterior with a matching beige interior lining colour.
  • Half Height Door: The door is interlocked and is made to match the finish of the lift.
  • 2 x Remote Controls: Call and send the lift remotely and also use it to move heavy or awkward items between floors.
  • One Year Warranty: All Stiltz Lifts carry a comprehensive 12 months parts and labour warranty.
  • Internal LED Downlights: These are programmed to turn on once the user has entered the lift and remain on for the entire journey.
  • Half Height Light Curtain: Comes as standard on all Stiltz home lifts.
  • Power cable: Depending on the nature of each individual installation, the power cable may remain visible while the lift is downstairs.
  • Interior Telephone: In the very unlikely event that the lift stops while you are travelling in it, help is just a phone call away with a phone fitted as standard in all Stiltz home lifts.

Safety Features:

  • Half Height Light Curtain: An obstruction sensor is situated at the entrance of our lifts. If this barrier is crossed the lift will immediately stop.
  • Safety Lid Plug: This crucial feature plugs the aperture in the floor when the lift is in the downstairs position. It is strong enough to stand on and you can place your original flooring on top to blend in.
  • Key Switch Operation: This feature allows the owner to isolate the lift if the need arises. This is commonly used when going away on holiday or when the grandchildren are around.
  • Top & Bottom Safety Pans: Using our obstruction-sensing covers, a Stiltz Lift can detect objects above or below the lift. Switch activation causes the car to stop immediately the lift lid or base meets an obstruction.
  • Hold-To-Run Controls: Operating a Stiltz Lift requires constant pressure to the controls. This allows the user to ‘drive’ the lift and feel in total control.
  • Weight Limit Sensors: Our Duo Lifts are limited to 170Kg, 27 stone/ 375lbs. The lift detects anything exceeding this limit and will not travel.
  • Out Of Balance Sensors: Sensors will detect if the lift is ever out of balance and prevent the unit from travelling.
  • Fall Arrest Mechanism: This patented system prevents the car from falling in the unlikely event of the steel ropes going slack.
  • Emergency Stop Button: This button is front and centre for the user in the event of an emergency.

The Duo+

  • The Stiltz Duo+ is the newest addition to the Duo Home Lift range. It’s a stylish, compact home lift upgraded with a curved exterior and designed to complement any style of décor, contemporary or traditional.
  • The Duo+ model carries all of the same features as the original Duo Classic, but its redesigned silhouette makes it an elegant addition to any home.
  • Move between floors with comfort and convenience with the Duo+ through-floor lift.

The Duo Classic:

  • The Stiltz Duo Classic is the original Stiltz Lift and was the first of its kind in the UK. It can carry two people between one floor in less than 30 seconds.
  • The Duo Classic has solid opaque sides and is available in a neutral white exterior for a contemporary and versatile look.
  • Our original Duo Classic Home Lift is built with various safety and accessibility features as standard, like a battery back-up system, a half-height light curtain sensor, and an interior telephone. Extra add-on options are also available.

The Duo ThruCar:

  • The Stiltz Duo ThruCar is an enhanced version of the Duo Classic lift, but it allows passengers to enter and exit from opposite sides of the lift.
  • The ThruCar uses Stiltz’s unique dual-rail technology, where two doors are configured on either side of the lift car, making access easier than ever.
  • There is no other domestic lift on the market that is capable of having a double entry or ThruCar configuration.
  • Along with maximum usability, it offers all the same features as the Duo Classic lift.

Optional Extras:

  • In-Car Seat: This is a popular option selected by customers. The Plus range accommodates a stylish, moulded fold-down seat.
  • Interior Grab Rail: Offers increased security for the occupants of the lift.
  • Bespoke Colours & Finishes: Customise your Stiltz lift by choosing different colour lift car, rails and interior lining.
