Stair & Railing Contractors

Stair railings are handrails that line a staircase or run up a stairwell. They are used for a walkers stability when moving from floor to floor but are as much about home aesthetics and home decoration as anything else. Their design can include materials like wood, brass, bronze, or iron. Stair railings sit on the open sides of exposed stairways and stair platforms. Handrails, balustrade, and newel posts are terms commonly used when talking about railings. When designing your rails, you must consider the laws and provisions, because there are many safety concerns when installing stair railings.
