How to choose the right bed rail?
If the user is looking for a lightweight option, they can consider the Bedside Econrail or Bed Cane. Both of these options do not have legs that extend to the floor, so the mattress must be thick and heavy enough. They come with safety straps to secure the bed rail to the bed frame. The Bedside Econrail is the most lightweight option, while the Bed Cane has wider rails than the Econrail.
If additional stability is needed, the user can consider the Mobility Bed Rail or Independence Bed Table. These options have legs that extend to the floor, providing extra stability. However, it's important to note that the bed must have a minimum height of 13.5 inches from the floor, and the bed edge should be at a right angle, not curved. The Mobility Bed Rail features a movable rotating arm that offers extra support when the user is getting out of bed or transferring to a wheelchair. The Independence Bed Table, apart from the bed rail, also has a movable tabletop.
For a bed rail that is adjustable and prevents the user from falling out of bed at night, the EZ Adjust BedRail is a suitable choice. It doesn't have legs that extend to the floor, so the mattress must be thick and heavy enough. It comes with safety straps to secure the bed rail to the bed frame. When not in use, the bed rail can be folded down, and there should be an 18-inch clearance from the bed to the floor.
