Jerry had spent most of his adult life as a firefighter, rescuing people, pets and property.  He loved what he did, and he was good at it! He did not mind the long commute to work and found fulfillment in helping people in crisis.  He just never expected to become one of those people.

There is a story of a man who was certain he could find gold by digging near his home. So, he dug, and he dug with no luck at all.  He used tool after tool for years to find the hidden treasure but came up empty handed.  The day arrived when he got so frustrated that he gave up completely and sold his land. Not long afterwards the new owner started his own digging and just three feet from where the original owner had stopped was dirt brimming with gold!

Life is filled with unexpected occurrences.  We may be driving down Delightful Drive and the next minute we get broadsided and find ourselves hospitalized with injuries.  Or perhaps we take an unexpected fall or discover that we now have a debilitating disease. None of this was expected.  We certainly did not plan for this, and yet here we are perplexed and in pain.

There is an element of life that we all strive for, from early ages until the end.  It’s a natural drive that pulls us to a standing position as a toddler and generates little legs to take mighty steps.  When we fall on our face, it’s that same energy that makes us oblivious to the fall so we get up and try again.

Fatherhood can be full of adventure, fun times and tears.  It can also be a life filled with unexpected depths of love and complete chaos all in the same hour.  Dads don’t always know how to navigate these turbulent waters – no one does really, there is no manual, no college course, no “Be the Best Dad Ever” elective and yet somehow, they are expected to sail smoothly.  Here are four common facets that find fathers and will try to trip them up to discourage them:

Joe was like many of the young men his age, he was strong willed, fit and had a whole future ahead of him.  The one thing he lacked however, was clarity on what to do with his life. Some of his other senior classmates had decided to join the military and told Joe all about the opportunity for a good education, the chance to travel the world and get training in a career that could make some decent money.  These promises sounded like a good plan mostly because he didn’t have a plan for himself once he graduated high school.

We have put together an iCloud photo album of some of our outdoor stairlift jobs we have done. The photos in this album are updated regularly. All of the photos in this Album are Gamburd’s jobs

Not all stairlift are the same. When you take a closer look you will find that the rail on most stairlift is very wide and the gear rack is facing up. This is not the case with Bruno stairlifts.

Seventy-five years ago it was very common for families in America to house several generations under one roof. It was typical for Dad to be the breadwinner, Mom to be the homemaker and the children to be surrounded by an aunt, grandparent or even great grandparent.

In the home medical equipment world—roiling with Medicare’s competitive bidding project, rampant audits, expanding red tape and reimbursement that increasingly dips below cost—it isn’t unusual for providers to lose hope for the future or even close their doors.  Read the full story here.

We like to pride our company and couture on doing things different then most others. Custom color stairlift rails were not always available. So we did it in house. Since this job was completed most stairlift manufacturers now offer multiple color option at an extra charge.

Sometimes getting up and down the stairs can prove just as tedious for our four legged friends as it can for us. Man's best friend unfortunately doesn't have an option to put in a stairlift like his two legged counterpart- Until Today!!!

Our customer Doreen saw a TV commercial and bought an Acorn stairlift.  She then came to Abilities Expo and saw our Bruno stairlift display and asked if she can try it.  Here is a video of Doreen after she rides a Bruno Stairlift.

What would you prefer on your staircase? Curving stairlifts can be the ultimate stair climbing solution if your stairs turn to the left or right.

This year Gamburd Inc. broke its own record by installing the world’s longest stairlift for Mary.  To put 102 feet into perspective consider this:  On average a Bruno handmade custom stairlift has 4 rail sections and is 20 feet long. 

The City of West Hollywood’s Disabilities Advisory Board honored Gamburd Inc with a 2007 Disability Service Award. The televised event took place on Wednesday, October 24th at the West Hollywood Park Auditorium.
