Will a stairlift work without a seatbelt?

Most stairlifts will still operate even if the seatbelt is not fastened. However, using the seatbelt is strongly recommended for safety.

Some models include a seatbelt isolation switch, which prevents the stairlift from moving unless the belt is fastened. This ensures the user is always secure during travel.
