• Safe access: the double height and non-slip surfaces reduce the risk of slips and falls during ascent and descent.
• Structural stability: the chrome-plated steel and rubber feet guarantee a fixed base even on regular and irregular floors.
• Patient autonomy: allows elderly patients, those with reduced mobility, or pregnant women to climb independently, improving the perception of dignity.
• Durability: the materials (chrome-plated steel, plastic, rubber) resist the humidity typical of medical environments and the frequency of daily use.
• Ease of movement: the compact size and low weight allow it to be moved between different clinic environments without effort.
• Reliable capacity: the 150 kg load capacity covers the vast majority of adult patients safely.

The step stool is used in general medical offices, specialist clinics (gynecology, pediatrics, cardiology), dental clinics and diagnostic centers. It is particularly indicated in contexts where the examination couch or diagnostic equipment is positioned at a height not directly accessible from the ground, such as gynecological couches, raised dental chairs and ultrasound tables.

It proves essential in clinics with high attendance of elderly patients, pregnant women or patients with reduced joint mobility, where facilitating access is a critical aspect of service quality.

Choose this step stool when patient safety and accident prevention are priorities, and the clinical space allows the installation of a stable aid. It is the correct choice if your clinic records a significant percentage of patients with reduced mobility or if the regulations for correct clinical risk management require suitable aids.

It is particularly appropriate in accredited private facilities where the perceived quality of the service also includes the ability to facilitate the dignified access of patients. It constitutes a minimal investment in terms of space and cost, but with a high impact on reducing the risk of falls in the clinic.

It is not recommended, however, in clinics where the space is less than 280 mm of free width, or where the patients followed all have preserved mobility.

What is the difference between a 2-step stool and a 1-step stool?

A 2-step stool allows covering height differences up to 440 mm, while a single-step one only reaches 220 mm. The presence of two intermediate steps reduces the angle of inclination of the climb, making the ascent less tiring for elderly patients or those with reduced joint mobility. In your choice, evaluate the height of your examination couch or equipment.

Is this step stool compliant with hospital and clinic regulations?

The product meets the functional and safety requirements provided by standard clinic protocols (non-slip, stability, certified load capacity). However, specific compliance with national or international standards (UNI, EN, ISO) must be verified with the supplier through technical documentation and available certifications. It is recommended to check compatibility with your facility’s regulations before purchase.

Is the chrome-plated steel structure resistant to corrosion in humid environments?

Yes, chrome-plated steel was chosen precisely for its resistance to corrosion in humid environments such as clinics and medical bathrooms. However, regular cleaning with appropriate detergents and post-disinfection drying will prolong the life of the finish.

What is the weight of the step stool and how much space does it occupy?

The overall dimensions are 280×520×220/440 mm (width × depth × height). The weight is not explicitly stated, but the structure is designed to be movable manually by a single person. We recommend contacting the supplier for the exact weight data.

Are the non-slip properties guaranteed over time?

The non-slip surfaces (step plastics and feet rubber) maintain their properties if subjected to regular cleaning and disinfection according to the supplier’s instructions. An accumulation of dirt or residual disinfectant can compromise grip, so periodic maintenance is important.

Can I use it for patients with a capacity greater than 150 kg?

No. The step stool is certified for a maximum load capacity of 150 kg. Using it beyond this limit compromises structural stability and increases the risk of failure or accident. In the case of patients with higher weight, contact the supplier for alternative models with greater capacity.
