        "text": "For older homes, common stair safety upgrades include installing sturdy handrails on both sides of the staircase, improving lighting in stairwells, and ensuring treads have adequate grip to prevent slips. Repairing loose or damaged steps, adding visual contrast strips to the edges of steps, and addressing uneven risers are also important. These improvements enhance stability and visibility, reducing the risk of falls in aged structures.",
