Galaxy Lifts acquires Majic Stairs to expand home access offerings

Galaxy Lifts has acquired Majic Stairs, a Florida maker of patented motorized attic access and storage systems, adding walkable stair and attic lift products to its home access portfolio. The deal is aimed at expanding product development, contractor support and digital marketing as Canopy Brands continues its buy-and-build strategy.

Why it matters: - The acquisition expands Galaxy Lifts beyond outdoor cargo and passenger lifts into attic access and storage systems. - Majic Stairs adds products designed to make attic entry and material handling safer and easier for homeowners, contractors and builders. - The move supports Canopy Brands’ strategy of backing differentiated companies with long-term investment and shared resources.

What happened: - Galaxy Lifts acquired Majic Stairs, an Ocala, Florida-based designer and manufacturer of patented motorized attic access and storage systems. - Galaxy Lifts is a division of Canopy Brands. - Majic Stairs was founded in 2016. - The company’s product line includes a fully automated, retractable staircase that replaces a traditional pull-down attic ladder with a walkable stair system. - Majic Stairs also makes the Majic Attic Lift, which raises and lowers heavy items between the attic and the space below.

The details: - Majic Stairs’ staircase includes dual handrails and an attic safety railing. - The Majic Attic Lift is designed to reduce the need to carry bulky objects up and down a ladder. - The products are made in the United States. - Majic Stairs serves customers in the U.S., Canada and the Caribbean. - Galaxy Lifts called Majic Stairs a natural fit with its expertise in motorized access. - As part of Galaxy Lifts, Majic Stairs will increase investment in product development and digital marketing. - The company will also strengthen contractor and builder support and expand operating capabilities. - Majic Stairs has grown largely through customer referrals, word of mouth and a reputation for product quality and service.

Between the lines: - The acquisition gives Galaxy Lifts a new consumer and contractor-facing product category with clear overlap in safety and mobility. - Canopy Brands appears to be using its platform to scale niche manufacturers that already have product-market fit and strong brand credibility. - The deal could help Majic Stairs move beyond organic growth and into a broader national expansion effort.

What’s next: - Galaxy Lifts said it will use additional resources to speed up product development and digital marketing. - Majic Stairs is expected to broaden its reach with more contractor and builder support. - Canopy Brands said the acquisition fits its plan to support continued growth through strategic planning and collaboration across brands.

The bottom line: - Galaxy Lifts is betting that attic access can be a bigger home-improvement category, not just a niche ladder replacement.
