Access made easy.

A simple problem. A practical solution.
Traditional gate locks can create unnecessary barriers.
High-mounted pull-up locks provide important containment, but many wheelchair and mobility-aid users cannot reach them independently. AbilityPost PUSH preserves that safety function while providing accessible entry from the appropriate side.
