FAQs
What is the HR profile?
The HR profile refers to the ungrooved shape of the handrail, which provides a smooth, comfortable, and secure grip. It is designed for wall mounting and is also suitable for attaching accessories.
Can I paint or stain the handrail?
Yes, the handrail is supplied with an unfinished timber surface, which is ready to be painted, stained, varnished, or waxed to match your desired interior style.
What is included in the kit?
Each kit includes a Pine HR handrail, a pair of HR end caps, and matching wall brackets.
What length is this specific product?
This specific product variant is 2400mm in length. Other available lengths include 3600mm and 4200mm.
Are wall fixings included?
The kit includes the handrail, end caps, and wall brackets. However, the screws or anchors required to fix the brackets to your specific wall type are not included and should be sourced separately based on your wall material.
Is this handrail suitable for outdoor use?
This product is designed for internal use only. Outdoor exposure can significantly damage the wood and compromise its structure.
How do I clean the handrail?
Clean the handrail using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning agents that could damage the finish.
Troubleshooting
Handrail feels wobbly after installation
Ensure wall brackets are securely fastened to the wall using appropriate fixings. Check that the handrail is properly seated on the brackets and that all screws are tightened.
Finish is uneven or patchy
Ensure the wood was properly prepared (sanded) before applying the finish. Apply finishes in thin, even coats, following the manufacturer's instructions for application and drying times.
End caps do not fit securely
Verify that the correct end caps are being used for the HR profile. Ensure screws are properly aligned and tightened, but do not overtighten to avoid stripping.
Wood appears warped
While engineered to resist warping, extreme humidity changes can affect wood. Ensure the wood has been properly finished and sealed on all sides to help protect it. Allow it to acclimate to room conditions before installation.
