Each pack contains five handrail brackets.
The brackets are crafted from durable metal with a polished silver finish.
Yes, a screw pack is included for fitting.
These brackets are designed for indoor use. The polished silver finish may tarnish or corrode if exposed to outdoor elements.
While possible, it is not recommended as it may void any warranty and could affect the durability of the finish. The polished silver is intended as the final aesthetic.
Yes, they conform to building regulations part K, which relates to stairs and guarding.
Specific weight capacity is not detailed, but they are designed to support standard handrails in compliance with building regulations Part K for domestic use.
Check that all screws are fully tightened into the wall and the handrail. If installed on plasterboard, ensure appropriate wall plugs or anchors are used for sufficient grip. Consider using stronger fixings if the wall material is soft.
Adjust the position of the bracket on the wall or ensure the handrail itself is straight. Minor adjustments may be possible by slightly loosening the bracket screws, repositioning, and retightening.
Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with a metal polish suitable for silver-toned finishes, but proceed with caution. For significant damage, replacement of the bracket might be necessary.
Setup: Installation is designed to be straightforward. Ensure you have the included screws. Mark the desired position on the wall and the underside of the handrail. Drill pilot holes if necessary, especially in harder wall materials. Secure the bracket to the wall first, then attach the handrail to the bracket. Always ensure the bracket is firmly fixed before applying full weight.
Compatibility: These brackets are designed to support most standard handrails made of wood, metal, or composite materials. They are suitable for installation on various wall types, including plasterboard (with appropriate fixings), brick, or masonry. Always check that the wall material can safely support the bracket and the intended load.
Care: To maintain the polished silver finish, wipe the brackets periodically with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or dull the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse and drying with a clean cloth.
