Let’s get one thing straight:

Installing or reinstalling an **Acorn 180 stairlift** is not a job for your cousin’s roommate who once fixed a toaster.

It’s more like rocket science — if rockets had seats, rails, and a disturbing tendency to hurl people down stairs when installed wrong.

And yet, across Metro Vancouver and beyond, it’s the friendly neighborhood handyman — bless their well-meaning hearts — who’s responsible for at least **95% of the disasters Rob's Worldwide Stairlift Repairs sees every year**. These folks don’t just mess up. They **wreck**, they **cover up**, and then they vanish like a magician with no return policy.

Which brings us to a radical idea:

Maybe, just maybe, installing an **Acorn 180** should require something like a **MENSA entrance exam**.

We’re not kidding.

Before you hand over your life savings — and your grandmother’s mobility — ask your “installer” these three questions:

1. **What is the IEEE AC RIPPLE threshold for a 33VDC transformer?**
(If they blink slowly like you asked them about astrology — RUN.)

2. **How do you remove and re-insert the carriage?**
Correct answer: Only via the **Transfer Rail**. Anything else is stairlift suicide.

3. **What’s the maximum drill speed to use when moving the carriage motor manually?**
Spoiler: It’s **0 RPM**. Not 300. Not 1,000. Zero. Because drilling your way through this problem isn't innovation — it's destruction.

YouTube might tell you otherwise. But YouTube doesn’t have a factory manual. Or liability insurance. Or a conscience.

Rob does.

And he charges **$75/hour** to fix what your DIY dream team broke while trying to save money. Irony? It costs.

So here’s our humble plea to seniors, disabled folks, and financially desperate families:

Don’t fall for the “cheap install” trap. That $800 stairlift turns into an $18,000 nightmare faster than a misaligned rail can say “lawsuit.”

Instead, call someone who actually knows the difference between a drill and a data sheet.

👉 Text **(604) 512-9567** for same-day consultations.

Because dignity shouldn’t cost extra.

But ignorance sure does.
