Marina House Boat Handrail
The challenge was to install a strong, salt water resistant, bespoke handrail that allowed the man to safety board his house boat, while conforming to the marina restrictions.
The solution
Measurements were taken to ensure the frame would fit existing steps, and the GRP composite system chosen.
Bethan and Melanie and the team at Engineered composites were more than happy to help and provided some parts free of charge.
The benefit
The solution has been really well received by the man, and it has extended his ability to safely live on the house boat, he has nothing but compliments for the process provided by the charity Remap . The frame is modular should any future amendments be needed and modifications were approved by the marina office.
