A step stool, also known as a footstool or small ladder, is a portable, low-height platform designed to help individuals reach elevated areas safely and comfortably. This accommodation is especially useful for people with limited mobility, balance challenges, or reduced strength who find it difficult to access high shelves, cabinets, or equipment. Step stools come in various sizes and materials, offering stability and support in both home and workplace settings. They are an essential tool for improving accessibility, reducing strain, and preventing falls. By providing a secure platform, step stools promote independence and ease in everyday tasks that require reaching or climbing.
Place the step stool on a flat, stable surface before use. Step up carefully, holding onto nearby supports if available. Avoid overreaching while on the stool to maintain balance. After use, fold or store the stool in an accessible location to prevent tripping hazards. Regularly check for any damage or loose parts to maintain safety. Cleaning the stool with mild detergent keeps it in good condition and ready for frequent use.
