FlexStep has many configuration and installation options, making it easy to integrate your new stairlift into the existing surroundings.
FlexStep is the perfect solution for both wheelchair users and pedestrians, giving easy access between levels and is particularly useful where space is tight and there would not be room to install both a lift and a flight of stairs.
Configure your own FlexStep via our Liftup product configurator.
“We needed both a staircase and a lift but did not have room for both. We found a solution working as both – a FlexStep where the staircase is converted into a lift, whenever the user activates the function.”
- Jesper Wegener
H+ Arkitekter, conversion of the City Court of Copenhagen
H+ Arkitekter focuses on creating accessibility solutions which appear as a natural part of the building’s interior design. In this way, they create humane accessibility solutions for users with physical disabilities as they will not be “exhibited” on a hideous platform or have to gain access by secondary routes around the building.

The FlexStep stairlift is designed to function both as an ordinary staircase and as a wheelchair lift. Developed and manufactured by Liftup, the FlexStep is flexible and equally useful for pedestrians and wheelchair users alike. FlexStep is an innovative 2-in-1 solution and saves space compared to installing both a flight of stairs and a separate lift.

Recommended for lifting heights between 9.4'' and 14.6 mm
The 2-step FlexStep model is intended for travels from 9.4'' up to 14.6''.
The 2-step model is built with a short lower step and extra long upper step, so the platform length is 47.6'' when transformed into wheelchair lift.
Recommended for domestic use only.
Recommended for lifting heights between 14.2'' and 29.1''
The 3-step FlexStep model is intended for travels up to 2.9''. With one stop the lifting height is 14.2''-21.9'', but with an extra stop (2 top stop software) it is 18.9''-29.1''.
Model 3-SHORT is fitted with only 36'' platform length allowing it to be installed in areas with virtually no room for a lift! Recommended for domestic use only.

Recommended for lifting heights between 18.9'' and 36.4''
The 4-step FlexStep model is intended for travels up to 36.4''. Travels higher than 29.1'' requires the space saving "2-stop point" feature where the upper step on the FlexStep staircase is lower than the upper threshold and the threshold is actually step no. 5 on the staircase.
