Staircase handrails: product definition
Staircase handrails are bars of standard length, between 1.5 and 3 metres. Available in steel, aluminium, or wood, the handrail provides support for going up and down the treads. It can be fitted to a wall, a balustrade, or a banister.
The staircase handrail, a product that promotes safety
Providing support for going up and down the treads of a staircase, the handrail is essential. Balustrade and staircase standards impose strict conditions in public buildings (accessibility). For private use, these products are fixed at a minimum height of 80 cm from the nosing of the tread.
Staircase handrails are design products
The handrail belongs to the category of staircase accessories. It is also a design product. You have the choice to select models that harmonise with your staircase and the style of your home. Safety does not preclude seeking aesthetics in materials and shapes.
Staircase handrail models: how to choose?
Choose your model based on how your staircase is used. Determine the width at which you need to fix it relative to the wall. Select its diameter based on the users (child, adult, person with a disability). Carefully measure the required length. Match its material with that of the staircase treads.
