D200S Dual Rail

Gradus D200 Dual Rails provide the ideal solution where both a handrail and wall guard are required as a combined system.  They have been designed to meet the specific needs of healthcare environments where pedestrian support is required in addition to protection against impact from wheeled traffic. 

All options are designed to meet the guidance in HBN 00-10 and HBN 00-04 (Department of Health Estates & Facilities), BS8300:1009+A1:2010 and Approved Documents K and M of The Building Regulations.

The D200S option of Dual Rail combines a Silver anodised aluminium handrail with a PVC-u wall guard linked together with a specialist bracket to meet guidance for handrail dimensions in relation to grip diameter, distance from the wall and bracket clearance.

The handrail element features a 40mm diameter for a smooth, comfortable grip and is supplied with PVC-u accessories available in the full 24 colour options (note: Gradus recommends the use of Flint 032, Pebble 011 or Granite 004).

The wall guard element is modular in design with an aluminium retainer, PVC-u cover and PVC-u accessories including returns and inside and outside corners. The PVC-u covers are available in 32 colour options and are through-coloured and textured to minimise the visual appearance of damage.

All PVC-u accessories are supplied with black reveals in an anti-bacterial finish to provide neat, smooth joints.

Gradus BIM objects provide up-to-date, accurate data about products. The Gradus D200S Dual Rail is available as a BIM object - click here to download.

Note: Handrails need to be easily identified and located for support and wayfinding and should be selected in a colour that has a Light Reflectance Value (LRV) that is 30 points different from the surrounding surface. All Gradus handrail colours have been measured to provide LRVs in order to provide the specifier with the information required to ensure a suitable visual contrast is achieved. Dual Rail should be specified in 2 colours with the handrail element contrasting with the surrounding wall surface and the wall guard blending with the wall finish.
