A stairlift chair 5 comprising a seat base 10, a seat back 14 and two arm rests 15 that are pivotably supported on uprights 16 which can be removed from the chair. The chair 5 also contains a seat back bracket 17 that extends between the uprights 16. The seat back bracket may be removable from the uprights. The uprights 16 may extend vertically and laterally with respect to the seat base 10. The seat back bracket 17 and uprights 16 may be spaced further apart than the opposed side edges 13 (fig 3) of the seat base 10. Both the uprights 16 and seat back bracket 17 may be made from sheet metal. The method of configuring the stairlift chair 5 consists of choosing a pair of uprights 16 from a selection of standard parts, pivotably attaching these to the arm rests 15, selecting a seat back bracket 17 from a range of standard parts, attaching this between the uprights 16 and fixing the seat back 14 to the seat back bracket 17. |
