Positioning the 2in1 Bed Rail
The position of the device (which should ideally be
based on a clinical assessment) should be such that
when placed under the mattress with the handle
fitted, the client (from a lying position) should be able
to reach the handle without stretching.
Important safety note: There must be a gap of less
than 60 or greater than 318mm from the headboard
to the Bed Rail, and the mattress should rest against
the handle of the grab rail when fitted to reduce the
risk of head/limb entrapment.
Installation Instructions – Divan Bed
1. Remove the mattress and place the plastic base
onto the divan base in the desired position.
Ensure that the handle bracket is positioned
downwards (see Diag.1)
2. Take first strap. Place the female buckle through
one of the triangular outer strapping points (A)
pull through and tie a secure knot. The buckle
should drop down the side of the bed around 2-
3". (Diag.1)
3. Feed the strap under the plastic base and up
through the rear triangular slot and secure with a
knot at point (B). The strap should be tight under
the plastic base, and the base should not slide on
the strap, return strap underneath the divan base.
4. Clip the two ends of the strap together and then
pull down the strap to tighten, as appropriate, to
securely fasten. Tuck loose ends of the strapping
under the bed to prevent tripping.
5. Repeat for second strap, fitting to the other side
of the base as shown in Diag. 2

handrail angled away from the user and clip the
