ENTRAPMENT PREVENTION GUIDELINES
Stander Inc. is committed to inform users of ways to help prevent entrapment.

prevention 
Zone
1: Within the Rail – Any open space between the perimeters of the rail can
present a risk of head entrapment. The FDA recommended space is less than
4.75in (12cm).
Zone 2: Under the Rail – The gap under the rail between the mattress, may
allow for dangerous head entrapment. The FDA recommended space is less than
4.75in (12cm).
Zone 3: Between the Rail and the Mattress – This area is the space
between the inside surface of the bed rail and the mattress, and if too big it
can cause a risk of head entrapment. The FDA recommended space is less than
4.75in (12cm).
Zone 4: Under the Rail at the Ends of the Rail – A gap between the
mattress and the lowermost portion of the rail poses a risk of neck
entrapment. The FDA recommended space is less than 2.375in (6cm). Also,
install the bed rail such that the angle at the end of the bed rail relative
to the top of a mattress is greater than 60 degrees.
Zone 5: Between Split Bed Rails – When partial length head and split
rails are used on the same side of the bed, the space between the rails may
present a risk of head, neck, or chest entrapment.
Zone 6: Between the End of the Rail and the Side Edge of the Head or Foot
Board – A gap of less than 12.5in (32cm) between the end of the bed rail and
the side edge of the headboard or footboard can present the risk of entrapment
of the head, neck, or chest.
Zone 7: Between the Head or Foot Board and the End of the Mattress – When
there is too large of a space between the inside surface of the headboard or
footboard and the end of the mattress, the risk of head entrapment increases.
MATTRESS CONDITIONS & SAFETY COMPONENTS
THERE
IS A MUCH GREATER RISK OF ENTRAPMENT AND INJURY/DEATH WHEN USING BED RAILS
WITH A SOFT MATTRESS! A soft mattress increases the risk that a person’s head,
arm, or leg could become entrapped between the mattress and a rail. Entrapment
can cause injury or death.
To ensure it is safe to use this product, test your mattress by taking your
fist and applying about 12lbs (5.4kg) of weight on the edge of the mattress.
If the mattress is soft enough that you can compress the mattress by about 2in
(51cm) when applying 12lbs (5.4kg) of weight, YOU MUST install the Bed Rail
Safety Guard (item #2400/ #2450 sold separately) that is designed to minimize
the risk of entrapment. If you are unsure, either install the safety guard to
ensure safety, or visit stander.com/extra-soft-mattress
for more information. If you have any questions about installation, please
call 800-506-9901.

and foot end plane of the bed to help prevent entrapment issues as shown in
FIGURE A. Top of Bed Rail must be a minimum of 4in (102cm) above top surface
of mattress. Base of Crossbar must be at least 4in (10.2cm) below Top Surface

Sewn Fabric Cover: Some Bed Rails come with a sewn fabric cover that must
always be installed to helps prevent entrapment. DO NOT alter the sewn fabric
cover in any way.
