Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use this handrail outdoors?
No, this product is designed specifically for internal use. Exposure to outdoor elements will cause the pine to rot or warp.
Does the kit come with screws for wall mounting?
The kit includes high-quality metal fittings for the rail, but you should source wall-appropriate fasteners based on whether you are mounting into wood, masonry, or drywall.
Is the pine pre-treated?
No, the timber is supplied unfinished, giving you the flexibility to paint, stain, or varnish it to your preference.
Can I cut the rail to a shorter length?
Yes, solid pine is easy to cut using standard woodworking saws to fit the exact dimensions of your hallway or staircase.
What is an HR profile?
An HR profile is a standard, rounded handrail shape designed to fit comfortably in the palm of the hand, providing a secure grip.
Can I attach this to glass?
The ungrooved rail can be used with compatible glass clamps, provided they are rated for the weight and dimensions of the handrail.
Troubleshooting
Handrail feels loose after installation
Check the wall bracket screws to ensure they are anchored into a structural stud rather than just the plasterboard.
End caps are misaligned
Ensure the rail ends are cut perfectly square before attaching the caps; if already attached, slightly loosen the screws to adjust the alignment before tightening.
Wood showing signs of dryness or splintering
Lightly sand the affected area and apply a nourishing wood oil or varnish to seal the timber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Sand the timber lightly before applying your chosen finish to ensure a smooth, professional result.
Installation: Use a spirit level to align the brackets horizontally before drilling. The kit includes metal fittings which provide a sturdy connection between the wall and the rail.
Hardware: Ensure the end caps are secured firmly using the provided screws. Periodically check that these screws have not loosened due to vibration or expansion.
Care: Keep the handrail away from direct heat sources to prevent the wood from drying out prematurely. If the rail is installed in a high-humidity area, apply a high-quality sealant or varnish to protect the natural grain from moisture infiltration.
