The Prima Outdoor Grab Bar is the ideal rail for outside, especially at the front or back door. The subtle colour allows the bar to blend into its surroundings and be more discreet when positioned on brickwork, compared to white metal rails. The Prima Outdoor Grab Bar is fully weather resistant, with horizontally over-moulded rubber grips, which help to prevent the users hand slipping down the rail, even when wet. It is always warm to the touch, and has an oval cross-section which ergonomically matches the human grip. It features a high 160 kg (25 stone) [350 lbs] load limit, made possible by a strong concealed aluminium core, which runs through the middle of the rail. The grab bar was designed because a well-situated rail can make all the difference to the safety and confidence of the user outside the home. The rails are made of robust materials and have strong fixing points because it is recognized that they are subject to some hefty pulls and sudden tugs, therefore it is essential that they are fitted competently, according to the instructions, or seek professional advice from a qualified tradesman.
