Injuries from Support Railing Failures

Injuries from Support Railing Failures

Many people, especially those with motor disabilities, depend on the railings provided with stairs to safely climb and descend these steps. However, if support railings are somehow unfit or unfinished to handle the stress of everyday use, the individuals who use these railings may be put in danger due to the threat of railing failures. Without a sturdy, safe railing, a person using the stairs may suffer devastating injuries, such as brain trauma, spinal cord damage, and neck injuries.

If you or someone you love has been injured because of dangerous support railing, there may be legal options available to help you pursue compensation from the property owner or manager responsible for maintaining that stairwell. For more information regarding your legal options after an injury, contact a Denver accident attorney from Hull & Zimmerman, P.C., today by calling (303) 423-1770.

Dangerous Support Railing Problems

Property owners and managers have a responsibility to their clients, guests, and other visitors to adequately maintain and inspect all parts of their property, including their stairs and support railings. In particular, the following issues with support rails can contribute to catastrophic injuries:

  • Railing that wasn’t properly installed
  • Railing that needs to be repaired
  • Railing that isn’t properly connected to the wall or to supports in the ground
  • Unfinished railing, which may be sharp

A person injured because of unsafe stairs or other property features may be eligible to pursue compensation from the negligent or irresponsible property owner at fault.
