A ligature-resistant grab bar provides ligature-proof self-support of persons at toilets, showers, baths or other locations where persons require self-support assistance. The ligature-resistant grab bar includes an elongate body that may be an extruded member, which has a flange disposed at a planar rear surface extending from the elongate body on a first side and a second side of the elongate body. The sides of the elongate body have curved side channels for drainage of water that extend from an inner edge of the flange toward a central axis of the elongate body to a gripping profile forming a front of the elongate body, which may be circular or elliptical in cross-section, of a front half of the gripping profile. The ligature-resistant grab bar also includes a bottom end cap and a top end cap attached to the ends of the elongate body.

A platform system comprising a platform structure having at least one modular platform unit with platform connection features on a side surface thereof to which other components can be connected, the other components including at least two of the following: another modular platform unit, a stair unit, a tower unit, a handrail unit, and a ladder unit. A stair assembly is connected to the platform structure via said connection features, the stair assembly comprising a plurality of stair units connected together to provide a number of steps equal to the sum of steps of the stair units.

In a railing system comprising a railing panel frontage which extends continuously along the course of the railing and consists of a plurality of mutually adjacent railing panels, in order to increase an additional resistance and security against destruction, an additional securing element, which, given a properly erected railing, extends between a handrail profile, resting on the railing panels, and a structural body or a holding profile disposed on the structural body and connects the handrail profile to the structural body or the holding profile, is provided.

A handrail mount for filet tables and other accessories that relies on two opposing sleeves that slide over the already-in-place ladder handrails. Each sleeve comprises a pair of long, narrow, open conduits that face each other, separated by spacers. The conduits define open troughs that slidably receive the tubular handrails. Each sleeve includes a clamp for clamping the ladder handrail in place. A filet table or other object may be secured atop the two opposing sleeves by locking handle latches, and a knife storage box can be hung on the sleeves.

A cable railing assembly having a plurality of posts, an expandable cable guide assembly, and a tensioning apparatus, and a method of assembling the cable railing assembly. The expandable cable guide assembly includes a pair of cable braces with a cable extending in a serpentine fashion between the cable braces. The tensioning apparatus includes a tensioner base, a tensioner body, a compression spring positioned between the tensioner base and the tensioner body, a movable carriage slidably mounted adjacent the tensioner body and comprising a cable clamp for gripping the cable, and a threaded adjuster secured to the body and operative for moving the movable carriage along the body.

A mounting fixture for interconnecting at least two tubular members, the mounting fixture including: at least one first connection section including a first connection aperture for receipt of a connector configured to secure a receiving element to the mounting fixture via a second connection aperture of the receiving element; a mounting sleeve configured to be secured around a section of a tubular member, the mounting sleeve comprises at least two interconnectable fixture sections, each fixture section comprising a portion of the mounting fixture which includes a section of the mounting sleeve and a portion of the first connection section; and at least one connecting arrangement for interconnecting adjacent fixture sections to form the mounting sleeve, each connecting arrangement being located on or within an inner side of each fixture section of the mounting sleeve to interconnect each fixture section to an adjoining fixture section at a location on or within an inner side of the mounting sleeve.

The present invention relates to an integrated folding safety handrail and outdoor escape stairs for high-rise buildings and an emergency escape device which are applied to high-rise buildings such as safety handrails for preventing falling from a movable passage exposed to apartment houses such as apartments or office buildings, and the outside and is applied as a substitute for safety handrails in high-rise buildings or outdoor ground clearance 3 m or more which is usually used as a safety handrail for falling prevention and so that an escaping person in the high-rise building escapes outside or safely escapes to a lower floor in case of emergency such as fire, terror, and disaster. Particularly, the present invention relates to an integrated folding safety handrail and outdoor escape stairs for high-rise buildings and an emergency escape device, including a fence unit 1 in which an entrance unit 10 and a safety fence unit 20 are integrated; and a sliding stair unit 30 formed at a lower end of the fence unit 1.

An improved handrail for a staircase or ramp. In one embodiment, the handrail includes an elongated member such as a cylinder or bar that spans the length of the staircase or ramp and a riser barrier. The riser barrier has an extender portion and a riser portion. The extender portion of the riser barrier keeps the elongated member a sufficient distance horizontally from the riser portion that a person can slide his or her hand on the rail without interference. The riser portion projects vertically a sufficient distance above the elongated member to deter sliding down the elongated member. Thus, sliding on the member is deterred, while the function of the cylinder as a handrail is preserved.

A passage control device having a corridor (1) and at least one pedestrian barrier (3), which, by the use of at least one blocking element (5) which is arranged in the region of the corridor (1) and can be moved between a blocking position and a passage position, releases or blocks the corridor (1) for a passage. Lateral boundaries (2) are arranged right and left of the corridor (1). The lateral boundaries (2) have a module rail (6) that is close to the ground and is provided with receptacles for functional elements and/or functional modules of the access control device, more particularly with specifically adapted receptacles for functional elements and/or functional modules of the access control device, preferably in a predefined grid.
