Access BDD marks significant milestone as it continues investment in the North American market
Stairlift and home lift manufacturer Access BDD exhibited at the recent NAEC (National Association of Elevator Contractors) Conference which took place in Reno, Nevada.
It was the first attendance at the show for the Stockton-on-Tees-based firm and marked a significant milestone in its ongoing investment in the North American market.
Melissa Davies, Access BDD’s Head of Business Development for North America, commented: “This was our first NAEC conference and it certainly didn’t disappoint! Our HomeGlide and Flow X stairlifts both proved very popular with visitors to our stand, and we were delighted with the level of enquiries we received.
“Receiving such positive feedback is fantastic and only goes to reinforce our belief that Access BDD will become a significant force in the North American stairlift market over the coming years.”
The Flow X curved stairlift from Access BDD features Advanced Swivel and Levelling technology (ASL), enabling the stairlift to rotate and swivel during travel, ensuring the stairlift is always in the safest and most comfortable position.
With ASL technology, the footrest remains independent from the drive unit and swivels with the seat, ensuring better posture and reduced knee bending.
The Flow X offers four rail options, including standard drop nose, vertical ‘short-start’ drop nose, horizontal overrun, and parking curve. Unlike other models, the Flow X has no visible mechanical parts. It can support a maximum weight of 125kg and can fit on narrow staircases as small as 610mm.
The HomeGlide stairlift, which launched in the UK at The OT Show in November 2022, offers a solution for all straight staircase requirements and comes with seat padding, armrest detection and an emergency stop button as standard.
For added comfort, the extra package is available with a powered swivel seat and linked footrest. For outdoor environments, the HomeGlide Outdoor package has a weatherproof coating to protect against rain, dust, and direct sunlight and a weight capacity of 125kg.
