"Not really it can affect the tension on carpet also very difficult and time consuming"

"Depending on which type of carpet it is, most carpets can be fitted with the stair lift fixed. Fitters will charge more though"

"It is doable, i have done quite a few over the years. Easier still is to just unbolt each leg one at a time and fit underneath"
