Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone lives in a house where there is the possibility of falling down steps in their wheelchair….? (e.g. wheelchair being at the top of a staircase ).
I have a hallway that runs past a staircase going down to a lower level… I’m a power chair and sometimes I worry I’ll drive poorly and potentially fall down… if I'm drunk :-)
Does anyone have a good solution for this…? But not some ugly stair gate… (other able bodied people use the stairs as well)….
I’m currently in the process of having to put in a new stair case so it would be the perfect time to adapt it….
Any automated type solution maybe … or maybe more practically....an extended first top step maybe…?
Idea...below ?

Problem...!
