Additional handrail
Slowly but surely, old age is creeping up on me! I find it is getting harder to climb into the motorhome, and would really love to have a hand rail or something on the right inner side of the entrance...

Our previous coach had a hinged panel that covered the stairwell while underway. When raised and latched, it created a short wall on the right side of the stairs. I found a wooden handrail online that was a close match to the factory on on the left and installed it on the panel on the right. With the panel down it was out of sight, and when it was up the handrail was quite stable.
How was the panel fastened (held up securely) when in the upright position?
Sorry for the delay in getting back to this... The panel latched upright with brass barrel latch. A smaller version of the kind often used on gates or shed doors.
Was the hinge side made of some kind of piano hinge?
