FAQs
Does this handrail come pre-finished?
No, the Flair Stairs Deep Traditional Handrail is supplied unfinished, allowing you to customize the color and protection to match your existing décor.
Can this rail be used for outdoor staircases?
This product is designed for interior use. Using it outdoors may expose it to moisture levels that exceed its manufactured specifications.
Is the bamboo as strong as oak?
Yes, high-quality bamboo construction often provides greater density and strength than traditional oak, while offering superior resistance to warping.
What is the specific groove width?
The groove is precisely 41mm, designed to fit standard modern spindles and balustrade components.
Can I trim the 1.8m length?
Yes, you can easily trim the rail to your required length using a standard fine-toothed hand saw or a powered miter saw.
Troubleshooting
Spindles feel loose in the 41mm groove
Check if your spindles are exactly 41mm. If they are slightly smaller, use a compatible wood spacer or high-strength wood glue during assembly to ensure a secure fit.
Surface feels rough or porous
As the product is unfinished, it requires sanding with fine-grit sandpaper (240-grit or higher) before applying your final finish or varnish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Flair Stairs Deep Traditional Handrail involves standard joinery techniques. Ensure the 41mm groove aligns correctly with your existing spindle width before securing. Because the rail is supplied unfinished, you must sand the surface lightly before applying your chosen stain or lacquer to ensure a professional, smooth finish. For care, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners; instead, wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the finish becomes worn after years of use, the rail can be lightly sanded and refinished to restore its original luster.
