Handrails for Staircases


When it comes to staircases, handrails are often overlooked or taken for granted. However, these seemingly small components play a crucial role in both the safety and aesthetics of staircases. Whether you are building a new staircase or renovating an existing one, it is important to understand the importance of staircase handrails and how to choose the right ones for your needs.

The primary purpose of staircase handrails is to provide a support system and enhance safety while climbing up or down the stairs. They offer stability and balance, especially for those with mobility challenges or in situations where the staircase is steep or has multiple levels. Handrails should provide a secure grip, preventing slips, trips, and falls, which can be disastrous and lead to serious injuries.

Moreover, handrails also serve as a visual guide, helping individuals navigate the stairs and maintain their balance. This is particularly useful in low-light conditions or when visibility is limited.

When it comes to handrails, there are various materials and styles to choose from. Each material has its own advantages and it's important to consider both functionality and aesthetics when making your decision.

Stainless Steel Handrail

Stainless steel, chrome or aluminium handrails for outdoor steps are excellent low-maintenance options. They offer a sleek and modern look, making them suitable for contemporary and industrial-style exteriors. Stainless steel handrails are known for their strength and longevity, and as a result, they are often used in conjunction with glass when leading up to a balustrade. Combined with glass provides a modern and elegant appearance. They are perfect for those who want an unobstructed view without compromising safety. This may necessitate regular cleaning to maintain transparency and clarity.

For chrome, aluminum and stainless steel, TIG welding is the preferred method providing very neat and tidy welds that maintain a minimalistic clean look of the handrails

Indoor Staircase Rail Nottingham

An indoor staircase rail is essential to any home or building with multiple levels. Not only does it provide safety and support while navigating the stairs, but it also adds a decorative touch to the interior design. 

We can provide a variety of indoor metal staircase rails purely made from metal but can also combine metal with other materials. 

In residential homes, this is often wood, whether the wood is the main handrail, but the support of this rail is provided by a number of metal vertical railings.

These vertical rails can include bespoke aspects within the rails themselves, such as basket weaves of additional decorative designs that can be welded onto the rails to provide a design that can complement the style of your home of the wallpaper going up the staircase for a complete co-ordinate design feature.
