Composition of Hospital Handrails, Wall Guards, and Corner Guards

Hospital handrails, wall guards, and corner guards form a complete wall protection system widely used in healthcare facilities, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, schools, and public buildings. These components are engineered to provide impact resistance, patient support, and long-term durability while improving the safety and hygiene of interior environments.

This system typically consists of PVC/Vinyl covers, high-strength aluminum alloy retainers, ABS end caps, brackets, elbows, and fastening accessories. Together, they deliver excellent performance in anti-collision protection, antibacterial safety, fire resistance, and ease of maintenance.

1. Aluminum Alloy Retainer (Keel)

The internal retainer is made from high-strength aluminum alloy (tempered aluminum profile) manufactured to meet the precision requirements of GB/T5237-2000.
Compared with standard aluminum profiles, it provides:

Over 5× higher rigidity

Superior resistance to acid, alkali, and corrosion

Higher transverse impact strength

Enhanced stability for long-term installation

This aluminum structure ensures that the handrail or wall guard remains firm even under heavy impact from wheelchairs, medical beds, or trolleys.

2. PVC/Vinyl Outer Panel

The panel is extruded from high-purity imported vinyl acrylate (PVC) with strong flexibility and an ultra-smooth finish.
Its performance advantages include:

Withstands 5× stronger impact force without cracking

Buffers collision without damaging objects such as hospital beds

Moisture-proof, non-warping, and non-deforming

Resistant to alkali, mold, discoloration, and extreme climates

Long service life with minimal maintenance

The material is widely used in hospital wall protection systems due to its antibacterial and flame-retardant properties.

3. ABS Elbow (End Cap & Corner Fitting)

The elbow is injection-molded using high-strength ABS resin.
Features include:

High structural strength and durability

One end connects securely to the aluminum retainer

The other end mounts tightly against the wall for seamless installation

Prevents gaps and enhances the visual appearance

ABS elbow fittings provide a smooth finish and ensure safety at corners and ends.

4. ABS Support Bracket / Mounting Base

Made from thickened ABS material, the bracket connects the aluminum retainer to the wall.

Advantages:

Strong hardness and high load-bearing capacity

Does not crack under heavy impact

Ideal for high-traffic medical corridors

Reinforces the mounting structure for long-term stability

ABS brackets are essential for ensuring the whole handrail system can withstand frequent use in hospital environments.

5. Color Customization Options

Handrails and wall guards are available in multiple solid colors and wood-grain finishes.
Users can select colors that match their interior design, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of hospital corridors, nursing homes, and public buildings.

6. Example: HR140 Anti-Collision Handrail Composition

The HR140 series is composed of four main parts:

PVC panel (5 m length, 2.0 mm thickness, customizable colors)

ABS base and closure trims (extruded)

Aluminum alloy core (5 m length, various thickness options)

Matching ABS elbow and end caps

This model combines handrail support and wall protection in one wide-profile design, suitable for healthcare corridors requiring both safety and durability.
