ABSTRACT:
An improved retractable hand rail for mounting on a platform of a vehicle lift. The hand rail is folded on top of the platform when the platform is raised into a substantially vertical position in an opening in the vehicle. The hand rail is unfolded and extended upwardly on the platform when the platform is lowered into a horizontal position adjacent the opening of the vehicle. The hand rail provides the safety feature of allowing the user of the vehicle lift to grip the rail to maintain his balance during the use of the lift as it is raised and lowered adjacent the vehicle.
