Handrails for healthcare

Timber handrails for care homes, hospitals and care buildings – where anyone walking should always have something to hold on to.

Safety, function and durability

In health and care buildings the handrail is in use all day. When it is chosen, safety, function and durability are what count.

  • ✓An end curve, so the handrail never simply stops
  • ✓Can be adapted for walking practice
  • ✓Species and colour matched to the setting
  • ✓Made to measure in Herrljunga

Reference: Mölndal Hospital

At Mölndal Hospital outside Gothenburg we made the timber handrails for the stairwells. The railing is steel, and the timber handrail follows it through the whole flight – round the corners and over several floors – so that anyone walking always has something to hold on to.

Always something to hold on to

Handrails should always have an end curve. Residents and visitors alike should know that there is always something to hold on to.

Walking practice

Health and care buildings often need room for walking practice. We adapt the handrail to your requirements, or suggest a solution.

Colour and species

Material and colour are matched to the rest of the setting. The species is a matter of both appearance and durability. We make handrails in twelve species, and beech is the most hard-wearing of them.

We have also supplied handrails to Södertälje Hospital.
