How can you make your stairs a lot safer?

Over the past 5 years I have written various articles with tips, tricks and links with references on how to make your stairs a lot safer in a simple and affordable way. Stairs in the Netherlands are generally quite steep, so the steps are usually not deep enough. Walking up is usually still possible, but when walking down it is often difficult to place your entire foot on the step, because of this you easily slip and often fall with sometimes serious consequences. This usually has considerable consequences, especially for the elderly.

Hereby I share again the links to these tips such as closing your stair gate, or a walking aid for the elderly, or perhaps a non-slip tape on your steps? Take advantage of it and get the info you need.
