- Our railings are weather-resistant
- Very simple to install
- Our handrail kits contain all the parts you need
- Expert Advice : Talk to real people
- Simply hold your measuring tape at a similar angle to the steps
- Decide the length by choosing where you want the rail to end and begin
- The uprights can then be placed wherever the best fixing can be achieved
- We would usually advise to let the rail run approximately 300mm by the end of the steps, if possible
- Confirm that you have all the required parts.
- When installing plugs, place rag or cardboard over plug and gently hammer into place.
- If installing into concrete or brick, vacuum out debris from drilled out holes before inserting sleeve anchors.
- If you plan on painting your rail, do so before assembling.
- Align flange and mark holes - Set the base flanges where they need to go and mark the holes with a marker.
- Dimple holes with a nail set - Before drilling, make a dent in the surface to prevent the drill bit from drifting.
- Drill holes for the anchor - Use a hammer drill and the appropriate masonry bit to make a hole for the anchor. Follow the instructions for drilling the hole from the anchor manufacturer.
- Remove dust from holes - Use a air hose or vaccum cleaner to get the debris out of the holes.
- Attach flanges with anchors - How you will do this depends on anchor style. But if you use hammer-in anchors, then put a nut on the end of the threads to protect the threads while you hammer the anchor into place.
- Cut off excess bolt - If you have excess bolt that is exposed after tightening the anchors, use a hack saw to remove the excess.
- Align flange - Set the base flanges where they need to go and mark the holes with a marker.
- Drill pilot holes - Drill a pilot hole appropriate for the size lag screw that you are using.
- Attach flange with screws - Use a socket set to screw the lag screw into place.
- Align bracket and mark holes - Begin by placing the bracket against the wall and marking the holes.
- Drill pilot holes - Drill a Pilot hole for the screws that will be used to attach the brackets. A hammer drill will be required if you are drilling into concrete or masonry.
- Attach brackets to wall - Attach the brackets with the appropriate kind of screw for the material that you are anchoring into.
- Attaching directly to the fitting - The majority of our kits contain fittings which allow the tube to slide through a hole. If this is case, then the job is easy! Simply slip the tube through the hole in the fitting and tighten down the grub screw.
- Drilling into tube - Some railing brackets are designed to connect to the tube with screws. If this is the case, then make pilot holes with a drill before attempting to screw into the tube. Even if your screws are "self-drilling" we recommend making a pilot hole. Pilot holes can be made by aligning the grab rail on the brackets and using a marker to mark each hole. Once the hole is marked, take the railing off the brackets and pre-drill the holes in a stable location. After you have made the pilot holes, set the railing on the brackets and attach with the appropriate screws.

Frequently Asked Questions
What height should a handrail be?
We usually keep handrails at a height of 1000mm approximately, as this is the size that best suits most people. Please contact us and let us know if an alternative size is required.
Where should a handrail finish on a steps?
A handrail should finish 300mm beyond the end of a steps on either end where possible. However, circumstances can sometimes dictate that this is not possible. For example, there is no point in running a handrail out where it is protruding into a driveway, pathway or causing an obstruction.
How do I measure correctly?
Remember what your Dad told you? 'Measure Twice, Cut Once' You know the phrase!
For kits with a post top and bottom, simply measure from one point to the other, where you want to position each post.
Allow a little
bit extra to suit if the rail overhangs the posts.
For wall to post handrails, measure from the point on the wall where you want to place your wall flange, to the top of the post(usually 1m from the ground). Again allow for whatever overhang you are looking to leave, as well as the angle which you want to run your rail at.
What sort of prepping do I need to do?
Whether you are mounting to the wall or to ground, be sure that the area is cleaned so that it can receive the base flange or railing bracket without obstruction.
How do I fix the base flanges to the ground?
*Please note that we don't supply bolts for the wall or ground, as fixing surfaces can vary.
Anchoring to concrete or masonry
Anchoring to wood
How do I fix wall railing brackets?
How do I attach the railing to brackets?
When it comes to the differences in the handrail kits, attaching the rail to the handrail brackets is where there is the most diversity. Some railings will be much easier to attach than others.
How will the finished handrail look?
Many of our kits are similar in appearance, but with minor differences depending on the rail pitch and nature of the fittings included. Our handrails are galvanised steel (silver/grey) in appearance and have a natural industrial look. Please note that we do not supply stainless steel or chrome.
