External grab handles fitted securely by steps, doors, and tricky access points. Weatherproof rails that give you something solid to hold when surfaces are slippery or steps are awkward.
### Make Outdoor Access Safer
Icy steps in winter, slippery when wet, awkward heights - outdoor access can be dodgy. **A properly fitted grab rail gives you something solid to hold** when you need it.
> 💡 **Winter safety:** Steps that are fine in summer become skating rinks in winter. Grab rails fitted before you need them prevent falls.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Height guide:** Grab rails work best at about 900-1000mm from ground level - roughly waist to lower chest height for most people. Adjust based on who's using it. **Building regs:** External grab rails near doorways should be different colour from the wall (contrasting) so partially sighted people can see them. Good practice even if not strictly required. **Multiple rails:** Steps wider than about 1m benefit from rails both sides - people have different preferences for which hand to use, and you want support whichever way you're going.
Frequently Asked Questions about Grab handle external in Teignmouth
Where do people need external grab handles?
Garden steps, front door steps, back door access, path slopes, getting in and out of sheds - anywhere outside that's awkward or slippery. Especially useful near steps that get icy in winter.
What's different about outdoor grab rails?
They're weatherproof - stainless steel or powder-coated to resist rust. Fixings are more substantial too since they need to hold in outdoor conditions. Indoor grab rails aren't suitable for outside use.
Will you fix them to any wall?
Need solid fixing - brick, block, stone, or solid timber. Won't work on thin cladding or rotten render. I'll check your wall and use appropriate fixings. Some walls need resin anchors for extra strength.
How long does fitting take?
About 30-45 minutes per rail usually. Mark position at right height, drill and fix to wall structure, test it's solid. Brick and stone take longer to drill than timber.
