Troubleshooting

Handrail feels unstable after installation.

Double-check all screws and fixings to ensure they are securely fastened. Tighten any loose connections and ensure the handrail is properly aligned with the base rail.

Gaps are visible between the glass panels and the rails.

Make sure that the infill strips are correctly installed. If gaps persist, ensure the glass panels are properly sized and seated within the grooves.

The finish is uneven after staining or painting.

Sand the surface lightly and apply additional coats of finish. Ensure even distribution of the finish and proper drying time between coats.
