Just had a StairSteady fitted. I have MS and I used to climb mountains and am keen to keep my fitness up. Brilliant product and a dream engineering project. I was the first girl to take CDT A Level and won a national prize so I'm really impressed with your achievement. I'll be at the British Science Fest and will definitely plug this product. Well done Ruth! I'm jealous as hell! :)
@juniorandtorrie this video was shot on a staircase where the wall finishes straight at the top of the stairs, on the other side of the stairs is a grab rail (but you cannot see this on the film). if we can we extend the StairSteady further so that you can get onto the last step we do, however in some situations, like this one the way the house has been built does not allow us to so we need to support the client as much as possible.
I have customers who need this now in the US. How soon will it be here? And what will I need to do to become a fitter? Any chance you could turn the top in to the wall to prevent catching sleeves and purses? Don't know if inspectors here would let it go as is.
Very clever idea. I hope she makes a fortune with it. Only question I'd have is whether it would be prone to loosening as it gets older and wears down a bit. -jcr
Do you sell a basket with hooks to hook over the bar so they can carry laundry, etc. in the basket? When coming downstairs it looks like there is the possibility of slipping off the end of the bar and going over the railings - a hinged bar that unhinges to form a locking right-angle would prevent this and make the user feel more secure.
Hi steve6375 there are baskets available that work with the product, we do not sell them. the height is very important, if you would like to try the product we would be happy to arrange this
Well, it was invented by a 16-year old schoolgirl. Maybe it is herself representing it or perhaps by a friend :) Besides, it is not only for the elderly, but also for disabled, who can be of any age.
Than you for your reply which patent do you think this falls under? there have been many designs trying to solve this problem but none do it like the StairSteady, the StairSteady is patented by Ruth Amos, and we have a patent number and it has been published. StairSteady DOES NOT buy patents from other people.

what if the elderly lose their grip. how about a back strap steady connected to the stair steady?
When are you coming to the USA market? Is it possible for you to partner with a USA company. I would purchase this for my mother if I could.

OMG It's on my grammar book!
i think you will find that patent belongs to us :-)
Yeah. This thing would sell like hotcakes in Japan! Or should that be like rice?
