Always choose the best LED handrail
For public spaces, hospitals, retirement homes, kindergartens or wherever accessibility is important. You'll have bright joy and customised safety on site for a long time.
It is a great wish of many people to be able to grow old in their own home or to master life independently, even if they have a handicap or visual impairment. In the meantime, there are wonderful aids for domestic facilities to make one's own living space barrier-free.
Public facilities must also be safe and functional for all people, regardless of their individual conditions, in accordance with the building regulations on accessibility. Our contribution to safe footing and good visibility of paths and rooms is the LED handrail, which, in addition to the great functional added value, also enhances the rooms aesthetically.
Specialisation and complete focus on the product LED handrail lighting entails seeing problems, developing the best solutions and gradually implementing them.
These are the requirements for the best LED handrail for the accessible rooms
- Hygiene: Especially in public areas, but also in your own home, it is important that the LED handrails are easy to clean. To prevent germs, the surface should be detergent-friendly (which is why we rely on high-quality stainless steel. It can be cleaned with various cleaning agents without corroding or destroying the surface). Secondly, the LED cover should be as flush as possible with the handrail so that dirt has no chance of getting into the gaps. A hygienic LED handrail must be simple, which is why we have eliminated all unnecessary components in the BASIC system. It consists of two components and the LED technology.
- Statics: A handrail is of no use if you cannot lean on it. For this, it is essential to check the statics and the correct spacing of handrail brackets.
- Hand guidance: The hand must pass unhindered on the handrail. Therefore, the brackets should start from the bottom and demonstrate a distance of 5cm from the wall to avoid rubbing the knuckles.
- Size and arrangement: The handrail should be on both sides and must have a maximum diameter of 45mm. It must be possible to hold on securely even with small hands. At the same time, the LED cover in the lower area must not be disturbing or even pose a risk of injury. Our Lilly handrail with 42.4mm is ideally suited for barrier-free construction.
- Position: The height of the handrail is between 80 and 95cm. Fitting a second handrail at a height of 65cm could be helpful for wheelchair users or people with walking difficulties to move along corridors.
- Handrails: The handrail ends should protrude at least 30cm before and after the stairs so that the hand in front can run with it....
- Orientation aid: In addition to providing brightness, the handrail lighting also serves as an orientation aid. Linear path guidance is therefore very important, especially for people with impaired vision.
- Light spot height: The light spot height below the eyes does not irritate or dazzle the eyes but relieves them. This delicate and pleasant type of lighting is appreciated by people even without impaired vision.
- If the handrail is designed in accordance with accessibility regulations, it is possible to apply for a grant of 4,000 euros to improve the living environment. The prerequisite for this is at least care level 1. You can get more information from your health insurance fund.
