Safety Rails

In the home environment, if you are elderly or have mobility difficulties, safety rails can really enhance how you use and enjoy your home. Installing high-quality rails can allow you access to your home, garden, or any outside space with more ease, providing safer movement and increased freedom to enjoy all your property.

We all have different needs, and at ilift, we are dedicated to working with you to create functional railing designs that meet all requirements.

No one knows your home as well as you, so we always work with you. We do this by getting to know exactly what your needs are and discussing with you what would be most effective, offering our knowledge and expertise on the design, manufacture, and installation of safety rails.

We can manufacture a wide range of rails which can be customised to suit your taste. Our team of in-house blacksmiths and fabricators will create something entirely bespoke, or, you may have seen a style you particularly like elsewhere, either way we will work to your specification.

You can choose the colour, material and finish of your rail, allowing your product to stand out or blend into your outdoor space as much or as little as you like.

We also install wheelchair ramps with handrails and handicap ramp railings for commercial, public or community buildings. Contact our team today to find out more.

For buildings in the public sector, there are specific access regulations which you are required to meet. At ilift, we help you stay in line with the government guidelines by installing appropriate rails to your ramps.

On certain access ramp gradients, handrails must be positioned on both sides (or on the centre if the ramp is wide). If possible, they should extend 300mm beyond the top and bottom of the ramp or staircase.

The Equality Act recommends that these rails be visible and not ‘cold-to-the-touch’. To combat this, we use railings coated with materials with low thermal conductivity.
