Kee Access® Handrails for People with Disabilities

A safe space without architectural barriers

The Kee Access® system enables the construction of continuous handrails for ramps and access ramps for people with reduced mobility. It provides a comfortable, uninterrupted grip and helps meet accessibility requirements. The system is suitable both for new constructions and for upgrading existing railings.

What is the Kee Access® system?

Kee Access® is a modular fittings system designed for building handrails that meet requirements for eliminating architectural barriers. The fittings are designed for use with inch-sized tubes compliant with ISO 65, with a wall thickness of 3.2 mm, allowing a Kee Access-based railing to integrate seamlessly with the full range of Kee Klamp® fittings.

The system creates a smooth, uniform handrail with a size 7 (outer diameter 42.4 mm) — without sharp edges or protrusions, providing a comfortable, uninterrupted grip for the hands. The components are made of galvanized cast iron in accordance with PN-EN ISO 1461 and can, on request, be additionally powder-coated in any RAL colour, so that the handrail is neither slippery nor cold to the touch.

Kee Access® is suitable both for constructing new railings on ramps and for adapting existing structures — dedicated split fittings allow a smooth handrail to be added without the need to dismantle the existing railing. If required, the Kee Project team can prepare an individual solution based on submitted drawings or technical plans.

Galvanized cast iron compliant with PN-EN ISO 1461 ensures long service life, while optional RAL powder coating provides a finish that is neither cold nor slippery to the touch.

Easy adaptation of existing structures

Easy adaptation of existing structures

Split handrail sockets allow a smooth handrail to be added to an existing railing without the need to dismantle it.

Fitting configurations and additional components

Specialist Kee Access® fittings allow you to create smooth and continuous handrails that meet the requirements for safe and convenient access for people with reduced mobility. Individual components connect with each other to form a complete handrail system adapted to the ramp structure. The system can be supplemented with additional components tailored to the requirements of a specific project. Pre-assembled post modules, infill panels and toe boards allow the structure to be adapted in terms of safety and functionality.

Internal fitting

A fitting installed inside the tube. It allows the component to be connected to the handrail in a single, straight line. It is one of the basic components of the Kee Access® system and enables the creation of a smooth, continuous handrail.

Compatible fitting

A component designed to connect the tube with internal fittings. It enables the construction of a complete smooth handrail system and continuous routing of the handrail in the required direction.

External sleeve fitting

The fitting surrounds the tube from the outside, allowing the handrail to pass smoothly over the connection point. The component is secured with small self-tapping screws that hold the handrail firmly in place.

Modules

Pre-assembled modules make installation easier and faster and help maintain a consistent barrier height. They are available in different sizes and configurations, allowing them to be adapted to the project requirements.

Infill panels

Infill panels are available in various materials, sizes and finish options. They can be supplied as galvanized, powder-coated or raw stainless steel components. Solutions manufactured to individual requirements are also available.

Toe boards

The 102 mm high aluminium toe board provides additional protection along the edge of the structure. A special channel makes it easy to position the head of the mounting bolt. The toe board is available by the linear metre, while mounting components are sold separately.

Compliance with standards and technical details

Kee Access® fittings are designed to meet the requirements for ramps and handrails for people with disabilities, as well as standards relating to the quality and durability of fittings.

PN-EN ISO 1461 Standard for hot-dip galvanizing of cast iron fittings, ensuring long service life of the system.
ISO 65 Standard specifying the dimensions of inch-sized tubes used with Kee Access modular fittings.
Handrail height Handrails should be installed at two heights — 0.75 m and 0.9 m — measured from the walking surface.
Handrail spacing The recommended clear width between handrails on both sides of an access ramp for people with disabilities is 1.0–1.1 m.
Ramp gradient Ramps with a height exceeding 0.5 m should have a gradient in the range of 6–8%.
Minimum ramp width The width of the ramp should be at least 1.2 m along its entire length.
Landings Ramps longer than 9 m should be divided by landings with a minimum length of 1.4 m.
Kerb A protective kerb at least 7 cm high is required along the entire length of the ramp and its landings.
Handrail clearance from the wall A handrail installed next to a wall should be positioned at least 5 cm away from it, providing sufficient space for the hand.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Kee Access® handrail comply with accessibility regulations for people with disabilities?

Yes. The Kee Access range of fittings has been specifically designed to eliminate architectural barriers and meets the requirements for ramps and handrails intended for people using wheelchairs.

Can Kee Access® be installed on an existing railing?

Yes. Dedicated split fittings allow a smooth handrail to be added to an existing structure without the need to dismantle it.

What tools are required to install the system?

Installation requires only a basic hex key and a tube-cutting tool — no welding or specialist installation qualifications are required.

Can the Kee Access® system be powder-coated in any colour?

Yes. In addition to the standard galvanized finish in accordance with PN-EN ISO 1461, all fittings can be additionally powder-coated in any RAL colour, providing a finish that is not cold to the touch and offers visual contrast with the surroundings.

What is the difference between cast iron and aluminium fittings?

Cast iron fittings (sizes 7 and 8) are the basic, most versatile product line, while aluminium fittings (410-8, 418-40) are a lighter, aesthetic alternative suitable for both new and existing structures.
