Handrail FÅLHAGEN – Stainless steel – Tactile handrails and stop markers

Tactile routes are an important part of the accessibility of public buildings and premises. The routes are both visual and tactile and lead to important destinations such as elevators, toilets, reception and stairwells.

Stainless steel tactile pathways.

Safestep FÅLHAGEN is our all stainless steel product range. The range includes tactile handrails, stop markings and contrast markings with different surfaces and fixings.

Stainless steel is a durable, weather-resistant and maintenance-free option that is well suited to high traffic areas – both outdoors and indoors. Stainless steel is a timeless and durable material with very high resistance to corrosion. It also has a modern, neutral finish that suits most environments.

Stainless steel handrails and stop markings.

Stainless steel rods are light in color and therefore best suited to darker floors to ensure good contrast and visibility. The rods are available in three different designs and can be mounted with 3M tape, pins/screws or mounting glue.

Important to remember: According to the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning’s recommendations and general advice, public premises should be provided with logical pathways that lead between selected target points. In open areas such as station buildings, receptions and foyers, there should be coherent tactile and visual pathways. The paths should provide directional orientation and safely guide us in the right direction – past obstacles and to the destination points.

The tactile beacons should also be installed with different materials and a brightness contrast of at least 0.4 NCS – either lighter or darker than the surroundings. Read more about all the rules and recommendations for tactile beacons here – or download our guide below under Documents.
