NIGP 55764: Stanchions and Grab Rails

NIGP 55764 Stanchions and Grab Rails, an Item code, covers physical safety and accessibility fixtures that state and local governments install in public facilities, transit vehicles, and infrastructure to provide handholds, fall prevention, and crowd control. State and local buyers procure these products for transit authorities (bus and rail systems), municipal buildings, schools, courthouses, parking structures, and public restrooms where slip-and-fall risk or accessible design requirements drive demand. The code captures both stainless steel and powder-coated grab rails for bathrooms and corridors, fixed and retractable stanchions for queue management and barrier applications, and mounting hardware. Issuing bodies span municipal departments, county facilities management, independent school districts, regional transit authorities, and state transportation agencies.

The source contains no recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code, leaving the geographic distribution and current market activity unclear from available records.
