What is a grab rail?

A grab rail is a specially designed railing that fits on the wall or the floor for easy access to support when you need it.

It's best not to rely on the wall, countertop, or towel rails you have around the house for balance and support because they can be unreliable and slippery and could lead to preventable falls.

There is now a massive range of grab rails on the market. You can choose the perfect rail for your decor so that it blends with the rest of your home.

A grab rail is useful if you have difficulty balancing, suffer lower limb weakness, or are prone to falls.
