Raised thresholds cause many stumbles and falls, but th< danger is minimized when they aie painted with a contrasting cob i This is especially helpful to chil dren and older people Por:h steps, fences, posts and stoney along drive or walks are among items that should be kep* painted with an eye to safety Usually white is the preferre I color because of better night visibility. Ordinarily, painting is not recommended for wooden laddeiu because this may cover up defects However, stripes painted on rungs in the center part wiil assist the user in watching his step. Light switches and fuse boxes will be much easier to locate in the dark if marked by luminous paint Tn general .it pays to keep all wooden portions of the home well painted, as paint protects the wood and checks decay. But remember that paint is not a substitute for adequate lighting: it help s to make lighting moi - effective, by increasing visibility Rend the cnassTf.ed ads.
