Handrails
Wood handrails are a popular choice for staircases due to their timeless aesthetic, versatility, and ability to add warmth and character to both traditional and contemporary designs. Here’s a deep dive into everything you should know about them.
Handrails come in many different styles, designs to suit various architectural tastes and requirements. Normally, they are either straight or curved for a curved staircase.
Most handrail designs have to meet certain safety considerations like height, grip size, baluster spacing under the handrail and ADA compliance for homes with accessibility needs or for public spaces. Please check your city building departments for proper code compliance for the handrail sizes.
