Hand rail

 ·  Posted: 13.11.2022  ·  #1

I've seen some pics of motorhomes where there's a handrail inside the door, usually on the left. Attached to the furniture side and near the step switch.

Does anyone know where I can get something suitable ? Something that doesn't protrude too far out into the entrance space.

Any good quality joinery workshop will be able to produce you something that will be of use to you.

Handle out of a mini bus may do the job, local scrap yard might have one

Have seen something like a strap which moves just enough to be gripped but then retracts. Don't want a bannister type yoke !
