I am looking for a wal mounted heavy duty bar to help me to get in to and out of bed
I previously had a bed lever that is not suitable for my new electrc adjustable bed - because a gap forms when the bed lifts
Also - it can;t be a ceiling mounted rod type
There must be a "distorted" D shaped bar available somewhere - but I can;t find one
It needs tto project further out into the room than a simple grab rail


This sort of design only obviously heavier

Yes it is a possible answer0 -
Local OTs may advise?
Some councils may even supply.
I'd be worried about getting suitably strong fixings into a wall for a long cantilever arm and that may need some thought.
Some bed rail aids claim to be usable with 'electric adjustable beds' but maybe your bed supplier can advise what might work? https://www.activemobility.co.uk/parnell-premier-bed-rail-electric-beds-1963
Or use google to find a bunch of 'possibles' to investigate further.
https://www.nrshealthcare.co.uk/bedroom-seating-aids/bed-aids/bed-safety-support-rails has a selection to peruse and https://www.nrshealthcare.co.uk/bedroom-seating-aids/bed-aids/bed-safety-support-rails/rise-easy-double might work (depending on the bed you have)??
