The StairSteady Story
|
The StairSteady is the ideal solution if you have some difficulty getting up and down the stairs but do not require a stairlift.
The innovative device is made up of a handrail attached to the wall and a handle that provides support while you climb the stairs. The handle locks in position when weight is applied allowing you to pull yourself up the stairs and then slide it forwards so that you can climb the next step or two. The handle is used in the same way when coming down the stairs and provides additional security and support. The StairSteady can be installed with two steadying handles for cases where two people need to use the StairSteady. |
The StairSteady was invented by Ruth Amos when she was just 16, as part of her GCSE resistant materials project.
The design was created in response to her teachers challenge to design an aid for people with limited mobility to use the stairs. This led to her being named “Young Engineer for Britain 2006”, launching her own business and exhibiting at Naidex for the first time in 2008. Ruth has now partnered with Patterson Medical to exclusively distribute the product to the wider market. |
