Stair Climbing Solutions Within Design & Architecture

A glimpse into the future of sustainable wheelchair accessibility

Designing Mobility Solutions Around Stair Space Accessibility

At The Stair Climbing Company we strive to offer pro-active mobility solutions to architects and designers on all stair accessibility scenarios. As a prerequisite of design wheelchair and less able access is essential to ensure equality to access.

We offer a solution within the design process to ensure building regulations are not only met but exceeded to allow all aspects of wheelchair access.

Offering a sustainable access solution to listed buildings

It’s often difficult to visualise exactly how a stair climber could transform your design until you see these incredible innovations in action. This is why we offer free assessments to all architects and designers for any projects. We currently have transformed the design process for numerous properties including Mappin & Webb (Chester) and Wagamama (Battersea Power Station). The process will look at how access can be provided without altering the existing build framework.

Thinking outside of the box and onto the stairs..

Even with innovative modern designs challenges will raise their heads. You can now deploy a stair climber to provide full access to all areas where only a lift would have been the option previously.

Architects wheelchair accessible CPD sessions

We offer free CPD sessions for all architects including a free lunch. This allows us to practically demonstrate and answer questions on how we can support yourself.

Get in touch today for further information, or to arrange a free CPD session on how we can offer an alternative mobility solution making your designs meet stairway accessibility.

Current Solutions Achieved

Stuart Kern

Executive Director – Quadrant Design
“We contacted The Stair Climbing Company to provide a sustainable solution for a refit we had within Mappin & Webb, Chester. The biggest hurdle we had was providing wheelchair access to a listed building with steps going down into the store. Chris provided a solution and trained the team at M & W to deliver on a daily basis. TSCCL revisit every 6 months to provide ongoing support to the team at Mappin & Webb.”
James Chapman

BDM – Tait
“We have had a partnership with F1 Global for several years. We were asked to produce a touring stage for them and we consulted with The Stair Climber Company with regards to access. They custom built a Skyline to offer mobile access to the stand. Easy and informative company to work with who use innovative ideas to solve stairway access issues.”
