Before you enquire
Questions people ask about stair railings
- Who fits it?
- Your builder, fencer or joiner, or you. Everything arrives finished, in numbered sections, with fixings and a setting-out drawing showing exactly where each anchor goes, so fitting is straightforward.
- What height do stair railings have to be?
- In a house the usual height is 900 mm, on the stair measured from the nosing of the step and on landings from the floor; balconies and terraces are 1100 mm. Gaps are kept under 100 mm. We make to those as standard, and we will say so if the height you ask for is lower than we would recommend.
- Can you make a railing for a staircase that turns?
- Yes. Send the number of steps in each flight, the size of the landing and photos from the top and bottom. Turning railings are supplied in bolted sections that join on the landing posts, so they go through the front door and up the stairs in pieces. Read the measuring guide →
- How do I measure up?
- Send us rough sizes with the enquiry and we will tell you exactly what to measure and where. For anything made to fit an opening we ask for three measurements across it, so it fits exactly. If you prefer, send photos and we will work from those to a budget price first. Read the measuring guide →
- Do you supply the glass for glass balustrades?
- We supply the steel posts, frame and clamps, made to take standard toughened laminated glass. The glass itself comes from your local glazier, who will measure once the frame is fitted. That way the glass is cut to the real opening rather than a drawing.
- How long does it take?
- Typically two to three weeks from the day you approve the drawings to the day it is delivered. Repeat orders on a design we already hold are faster. If you have a fixed site date, tell us at enquiry stage and we will confirm whether it can be met before you commit.
