Additional hand rail
On our way home I fell while going up the stairs to the bedroom, bad enough where I was hospitalized for 3 days. I have a balance problem and have fallen going up and down the stairs.
We want to add a rail or a hand hold to help but do not want to put anything on the walls going along side the stairs. The reason being, that I need all the room possible in case I need to be transported from the bedroom down. The chair the para medics used just fit going down from the bedroom.
We are looking at using a wooden handle similar to what is next to the entry door on the inside. It would be mounted on the wall next to the pantry as you go up the stairs because that seems to be solid. At the top of the stairs, just past the pocket door is another area that is sold enough for a handle. I will check with my dealer for handles matching what we already have,
Has anyone added any additional handles? If so where?
