RCS260 reconditioned curved stairlift
A twin-track curved stairlift, prepared for your home
The Freedom RCS260 is our reconditioned twin-track curved stairlift. Its two tubular rails follow the staircase route, carrying the chair around bends and between suitable landings.
This is a seated option for indoor curved staircases. Freedom Stairlifts checks the user’s needs, available space and reconditioned equipment before confirming whether the RCS260 is the right choice.

Key features
A familiar seated design for curved staircases
A carefully planned route and a suitable chair specification help make the RCS260 practical to use around the home.
Seated travel
A supportive chair provides a seated travelling position. The seat style and fit are checked against the user’s needs.
Swivel seat
The seat swivels at the landing to assist getting on and off. Manual or powered operation depends on the lift and agreed specification.
Folds between journeys
Folding the seat, arms and footrest helps reduce the space occupied when the stairlift is parked.
Remote call controls
Calling controls let you bring the unoccupied lift to the landing or send it to another agreed parking position.
Reconditioned equipment
The system is checked and prepared for further use. Suitability, stock and rail preparation determine which installation can be offered.
Twin-track design
Two rails following your staircase route
The RCS260 uses a twin-track layout, giving it a different appearance and space requirement from the single-track RCSA and RCSX. The survey considers the full installation rather than the rail alone.
Bends, landing space, nearby doors and parking positions all affect the plan. Where a rail start would interfere with access, a powered hinge may be considered if a suitable configuration is available.

Safety and comfort
Seating and controls that suit the user
The specification should reflect how the stairlift will be used each day. We check essential features before recommending a particular reconditioned RCS260.
Seatbelt
A restraint helps maintain the travelling position. Its operation is checked against the user’s ability to fasten and release it.
Obstruction protection
Safety edges on the carriage and footrest stop the lift if they detect an obstruction.
Simple chair controls
The controls are assessed with the user and explained during the installation handover.
Landing swivel
A manual or powered swivel arrangement is agreed according to the available lift and the user’s requirements.
Footrest operation
The folding arrangement is confirmed for the supplied chair. We check whether the user can manage it comfortably.
Battery-driven travel
The lift can run during a power cut while its batteries remain sufficiently charged. Normal charging needs to remain switched on.
Survey and installation
Reconditioned equipment, carefully prepared for a new home
We begin by assessing the staircase and discussing the user’s needs. This establishes whether a suitable option is available and gives us the information needed for a quotation.
For a reconditioned curved system, a separate technical survey records the route for track preparation. The chair, drive system and rail are reconditioned; reused rail sections are prepared for the surveyed staircase, and the completed rail is freshly painted.
Installation includes alignment, operating and safety checks, and a demonstration of the controls, charging and parking. The quotation confirms the equipment, options and expected timescale.

RCS260 FAQs
Questions about the reconditioned RCS260
Helpful answers about suitability, specification, rail preparation and support.
What is the Freedom RCS260?
RCS260 is Freedom Stairlifts’ reference for its reconditioned twin-track curved stairlift. The seat style, finish and options are confirmed for the particular lift offered.
How does it differ from the RCSA and RCSX?
The RCS260 uses two tubular rails. The RCSA and RCSX use a single tubular rail and a seat that can turn during travel. The most suitable option depends on the staircase, user, required features and available equipment.
Can the RCS260 fit any curved staircase?
No. The staircase route, clearances, landing space and user’s measurements all need to be assessed. A different new or reconditioned curved stairlift may be more suitable.
Does the RCS260 include a powered swivel or hinge?
Suitable powered swivel and hinge options may be available, depending on the equipment and staircase. They are not assumed to be included: any essential features are confirmed in the quotation.
Which seat style will be supplied?
Seat styles can vary between reconditioned lifts. Freedom Stairlifts confirms the actual chair, upholstery and folding arrangement before you order.
Can the existing rail be used in another home?
Reused rail sections need a fresh technical survey and track-preparation process for the new staircase. The completed rail is freshly painted. An old rail cannot simply be assumed to fit another property.
How much does an RCS260 cost?
The staircase route, rail preparation, chair specification, powered options and availability affect the cost. We prepare a quotation after assessing the home and the user’s needs.
What guarantee is included?
Freedom Stairlifts includes a minimum 12-month guarantee and the applicable 12-month service arrangement with its reconditioned curved stairlifts. Your quotation explains the terms and support for the supplied equipment.
