Stair Handrails
What is a handrail?
Stair handrails form the top part of your banister as part of your internal stails and/or landing, and as the name suggests, is the part that yourself and your guests may hold on to whilst ascending or descending from the staircase. Stair handrails essentially offer support to the user and are particularly useful for young children and the elderly, as they are designed to be incredibly sturdy and robust.
At Howarth, we offer a wide range of timber handrail options. For wooden handrails, we recommend the pine or oak, which can be purchased to fit your choice of either 32mm or 41mm spindles. Wooden stair handrails are incredibly supportive and safe, and can be wall-mounted depending on where your staircase is placed. They are suitable for both indoors and outdoors.
According to the approved document K, if your staircase is less than one metre wide, then you will need to fit a handrail on one side. However, if your stairs are more than one metre wide, a handrail will be required on both sides. A handrail is not required for the bottom two steps of the staircase.
At Howarth, we have a wide range of colours and designs available that will perfectly complete your staircase.
