How StairSteady Works
The simple mechanical handrail system that locks under load and unlocks in a lift – keeping you steady on every step.
Step-by-Step Support
StairSteady moves when you move and secures when you need it. Here’s what happens:
Slide
Gently push the handle forward, and the low-friction pads will let it glide along the rail.
Lock
Apply downward weight and rubber brake pads grip the rail instantly, giving firm support.
Move
Lift slightly, slide to the next comfortable position, and repeat until you reach the top/bottom of the stairs.

Quick, No-Fuss Installation
