Product Information
Full details
The Radway Handrail End Caps are an essential finishing component for homeowners and contractors installing the Handrails Direct 40mm metal stair handrail system. These caps provide a clean, polished look to exposed tube ends while offering protection against sharp edges, though they must be paired specifically with the Radway range for an ideal fit. Designed for easy installation, they transform a raw rail cut into a professional-grade safety feature.

FAQs
Can I use these on wooden handrails?
No, these are designed exclusively for 40mm metal handrails within the Handrails Direct Radway range.
Do I need to drill the handrail myself?
The Radway system is designed for easy assembly, but you should ensure the end of your rail is cut straight to ensure a flush fit for the cap.
Does this pack mount the rail to the wall?
No, these are decorative end caps. You must use appropriate wall brackets to mount the handrail to the wall.
Are the screws included?
Yes, every pack includes the necessary fixing screws for the two caps.
Can these be painted?
While you can technically apply paint, they are finished in a durable silver coating designed to match the Radway rail, so painting is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
The end cap feels loose after installation.
Ensure the screw is tightened fully. If the thread is stripped, verify you are using the provided hardware and that no debris is inside the cap.
Cap does not fit over the rail end.
Check that your rail is exactly 40mm in diameter and part of the Handrails Direct Radway system. Ensure there are no burrs or rough metal fragments on the cut end of the tube that might be obstructing the fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your 40mm handrail is properly secured to the wall using compatible wall brackets—remember that these caps are decorative and not structural. Once the rail is mounted, place the end cap over the opening of the rail. Using a manual screwdriver, secure the cap through the provided pre-drilled holes with the included screws. To maintain the silver finish, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth periodically. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the metallic coating.
