The Alrick Clamp On Support Rail is a short bed rail that clamps directly onto the metal frame of a bed to provide a firm handhold for getting in and out of bed and for steadying while sitting on the edge. A quick release clamping system fits and removes the rail without tools, so it can be added when a person needs it and moved between beds as circumstances change. The handle sits 40 cm above the bed frame and the rail is around 30 cm wide with about 10 cm between the rungs, and this short open form is intended to reduce the risk of entrapment compared with full length side rails. The frame carries a powdercoated finish and is stocked in Ironstone, the clamp has been independently tested to Australian standards, a safe working load of 150 kg applies, and custom options are available from Alrick.

Most of the value here is in how little it commits the household to. One clamp adds a solid point to push or pull against at the edge of an existing bed, and the same clamp takes it away again without tools if needs change. The compact profile also keeps the bedroom looking less like a ward than a pair of full length rails would.
