People who have difficulty negotiating changes of level need the support of handrails.; They should be easy to grip and at a height of 900 to 1000mm from floor level.; They should be on both sides of a staircase / ramp and grip should be between 60 to 75mm from the mount.; On wide flights of steps, handrails should be used to divide the flight into channels.; Guardrails or upstanding of at least 100mm high need to run the full length of the outside of the ramp.
