Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: The kit includes all mounting hardware. Use a level to ensure the rail is perfectly horizontal or angled before marking your drill holes. It is critical to anchor the brackets directly into wall studs to ensure the 400-pound load capacity is maintained.
Compatibility: This rail is designed for flat wall mounting. Ensure the wall surface is structurally sound (drywall over studs, masonry, or concrete) before beginning installation.
Care: To maintain the finish, wipe the handrail with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the wood grain. If installing outdoors or in high-moisture areas like bathrooms, consider applying a thin coat of wood sealant or furniture wax to protect the natural pine from warping or staining.
