Stainless Balustrade Fittings

A: In high-traffic areas or where support is paramount, heavy-duty handrail brackets are the workhorses. Made from durable materials like wrought iron or stainless steel, these brackets are designed to withstand significant weight and frequent use.

A: Using this method, it's easy to figure out how many handrail brackets you'll need by dividing the length of the railing into the required spacing for handrail brackets. If you have a railing that is 12 feet long, and handrail brackets are required to be spaced every 3 feet, you will need 4 hand brackets total.

A: There are no specific regulations on handrail brackets spacing in most countries. However, according to the experience of the construction industry, we recommend that handrail brackets spacing should be between 36 and 48 inches, or about 3 to 4 feet (7.62-10.16 cm).

A: The overall width of your handrail will also determine which handrail bracket you should use (as minimum 50mm clearance is required between the wall and start of the rail). This would mean, for instance, a 50mm handrail would require at least a 75mm bracket.

A: Fit one bracket 30cm from the bottom end of the handrail (this should roughly align with the edge of second stair tread up from the bottom of the stairs) Fit the second bracket 100cm along from the first one. Fit the third bracket 100cm along from the second one.
