FAQs
Can this handrail be used outdoors?
No, this handrail kit is specifically designed and recommended for internal use only. Exposure to outdoor elements can damage the pine and compromise its integrity.
What type of wood is the handrail made from?
The handrail is constructed from quality pine, offering a balance of durability and affordability.
Does the kit come with wall anchors?
The kit includes screws for installation. Depending on your wall type, you may need to purchase appropriate wall anchors separately to ensure a secure fit.
How do I choose the right length?
Measure the area where the handrail will be installed, adding a few extra inches at each end if needed for comfortable grip extension. The available lengths are 1200mm, 1800mm, 2400mm, 3600mm, and 4200mm.
Can I paint or stain the handrail?
Yes, the handrail is supplied unfinished, making it ideal for painting, staining, varnishing, or waxing to match your home's decor.
What are the dimensions of the handrail?
The handrail has a dimension of 54mm x 54mm with a 25mm flat underside.
What bracket finishes are available?
The matching wall brackets are available in Chrome, Black, Brushed Nickel, and Antique Brass finishes.
Troubleshooting
Handrail feels loose or unstable
Ensure all wall brackets are securely fastened to wall studs or using appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors. Check that the handrail is firmly attached to the brackets with the provided screws.
Screws will not tighten into the wall
The wall material may not be dense enough. Use stronger wall anchors suitable for your wall type (e.g., toggle bolts for drywall) or locate wall studs for a more secure fixing.
Surface finish is uneven after application
Ensure the pine surface was adequately sanded before finishing. Apply thin, even coats of paint, stain, or varnish, allowing each coat to dry thoroughly according to the product manufacturer's instructions.

Care:
- Clean the handrail with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, especially if unfinished.
