When a Global Mobility Brand Needs a Local Accessibility Fix, They Call Tyrex
Acorn Stairlifts have been operating since 1992, supplying their cutting-edge stairlift technology to over 80 countries around the world. As a company committed to improving accessibility and mobility, they share a kindred mission with us at Tyrex Solutions.
So when the team at Acorn needed help with a tricky access issue at their Belrose, NSW, store, we were more than ready to lend a hand.
Not Far From the Tree: Tyrex Steps In
Late last year, Acorn Stairlifts reached out about a small but significant trip hazard at the front entrance of their store — a raised door lip that made access difficult for visitors. It may sound simple, but the issue had a unique complication: the lip was uneven in height across the entryway. That ruled out a standard ramp.
What they needed was a custom-designed solution — lightweight, durable, and precisely fitted. That’s where our team came in.

Working closely with the store manager, we gathered detailed measurements and photos of the site. These were passed on to our in-house design team, who used CAD technology to craft a custom ramp tailored to the millimetre.
The result? A perfectly flush, easy-to-handle custom threshold ramp that the Acorn team can place each morning and store away in the evening. A seamless solution for a potentially hazardous problem.
Once delivered, the response from Acorn Stairlifts was overwhelmingly positive. Their customers now have safe, smooth access to the store — no trip hazards, no worries.
