Product Information

Full details

This modular bath step by The Ramp People is designed for individuals with limited mobility, the elderly, or those recovering from surgery, offering a safer and easier way to enter and exit the bath. Its key benefit is enhancing bathroom safety by reducing the step height into the bath, thereby minimizing trip hazards. A potential caveat is that while one step provides an 11cm height, achieving greater heights requires purchasing additional units.

FAQs

What is the maximum height I can achieve?

Each step provides 11cm height. You can stack additional steps at 5.5cm increments. The maximum achievable height depends on the number of steps you stack, but ensure stability is maintained.

Can I use this step outside the bathroom?

While the step is water-resistant and designed for safety, its primary function and design are for bath entry/exit. It is recommended for use in the bathroom environment only.

Is the step difficult to move for cleaning?

No, the step is lightweight (1.03kg) and portable, making it easy to move for cleaning underneath or wiping down.

What materials is the step made from?

The step is made from durable plastic, designed to be water-resistant and easy to clean.

How do I know if I am eligible for VAT relief?

VAT relief is available to individuals in the UK who have a 'relevant disability' (a physical or mental impairment which has a long term and substantial adverse effect on their ability to carry out everyday activities) or to qualifying charities. You will typically need to provide a declaration at the time of purchase.

What are the dimensions of the step?

The dimensions are 380mm (Length) x 480mm (Width) x 110mm (Height).

Does the non-slip surface wear down over time?

The non-slip surface is designed for durability in a bathroom environment. Regular cleaning will help maintain its effectiveness. If the surface shows signs of significant wear, inspect the step for damage.

Troubleshooting

Step feels unstable

Ensure the step is on a level surface. Check that the rubber feet are intact and clean. If stacking steps, verify that they are properly aligned and secure.

Non-slip surface is less effective

Clean the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any soap scum or residue that might be reducing grip. Ensure the step is completely dry before use.

Step moves during use

Confirm that the rubber feet are in direct contact with the floor and are not worn. Make sure the floor surface itself is not excessively slippery. The step is designed to stay put, so excessive movement may indicate an issue with the floor or the step's feet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves bathroom safety for users with mobility issues.
  • Modular design allows for customizable height adjustments.
  • Non-slip surface and stable rubber feet provide excellent grip.
  • High-visibility color scheme aids users with visual impairments.
  • Easy to clean and maintain.
  • Lightweight and portable.

Cons

  • Requires purchasing multiple units to achieve higher step configurations.
  • Limited to bath entry/exit use; not suitable for other household steps.
  • The white colour may show marks more readily than darker options.
  • Maximum height achievable with stacking might not suit all user needs.
  • Relies on user strength to move for cleaning underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The bath step requires no assembly. Simply place it on the floor in front of the bath you intend to use. If stacking steps, ensure the lower step is stable and dry before placing the next step directly on top. For maximum stability, align the rubber feet of the top step within the designated areas or on the flat surface of the lower step.

Compatibility: This step is designed for use with standard bathtubs. It is intended to be placed directly in front of the bath to bridge the gap between the floor and the bath's edge. Ensure there is sufficient space in front of your bath to accommodate the step's dimensions (380mm L x 480mm W).

Care: The step is easy to clean. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the non-slip surface. To clean underneath the step, simply lift and move it to a dry area. Ensure the step is dry before returning it to its position in front of the bath.
