Default Speeding up a stairlift

Every old person I know with a stairlift is ****ed off at how slow they
go.* Does anyone have experience of making these things go a bit
faster?* I mean picture an old person trying to get downstairs to answer
the doorbell, shouting "just a minute!" or more precisely "just an hour!"

I know they don't want to be going so fast as they'd fall off, but the
things have ****ing seatbelts on them anyway!* There'd be no harm in
making them go walking speed, with a gradual start.

They speeded one up in the film Gremlins. It didn't end well.
