FAQ

How high should the handrail on a stair railing be?

The handrail on a stair railing should be between 80cm and 115cm in height. However, please check the specifications in your region in advance in order to comply with the safety standards of the applicable building regulations.

What is the cost of a stainless steel stair railing?

The cost of a stainless steel stair railing depends on various factors, such as size, material, design and the effort required for installation. 

Of course, our experienced professionals will be happy to advise you on choosing the right stainless steel stair railing for your requirements. Our experts can also help you determine the size, material and design and provide you with a transparent quotation taking into account your individual needs and budget specifications. Simply contact us to receive a non-binding offer.

Which craftsmen make stair railings?

The manufacture of stair railings can be carried out by different craftsmen, depending on the specific requirements and materials. A metalworker or carpenter can usually make and install a custom-made stair railing. A specialist glazier can also install all-glass railings.

If welding is required to install a stainless steel stair railing, we recommend having the work done by certified welders or metalworkers with welding certification. However, a significant advantage of our stainless steel systems is that many installation situations can be managed without welding. For this purpose, we offer the option of using Q-glue and Easy Hit, thus enabling a welding-free assembly.

What glass thickness is required for a stair railing?

The ideal glass thickness for stair railings depends on various factors, such as the height and type of railing, the type of load and the size of the glass surface. Glass thicknesses between 6.76mm and 10.76mm are common for glass infills, and between 12.76mm and 21.52mm for all-glass balustrades.

When is a stair railing required?

How stair railings are used and installed depends on the required building regulations. Please check your local regulations and requirements before starting any work.

Usage in stairwells and building entrances

Our stair railings are suited to use both in stairwells and building entrances. Whether you require a baluster railing system or a glass railing system, we have the perfect solution for your requirements. Our product range also contains handrails.

Design as post railing, glass railing or handrail

Our stair railings offer different options to suit your needs. The post railing is a robust choice that provides safety and stability through vertical posts and horizontal elements. It represents a timeless design and is available in both stainless steel and aluminium. The all-glass railing, on the other hand, gives your staircase a modern and elegant feel. With tempered safety glass and special mounting options, it offers transparency and unobstructed looks. In addition to our railings, we also offer handrails that serve as additional support when climbing stairs. Our products can be adapted to your specific requirements. Feel free to contact us for more information and individual advice.

Materials

Stainless steel is a particularly popular material for stair railings due to its durability and modern look. Stainless steel stair railings can be equipped with glass infills, bars, cables, webs or metal plates. In the case of glass infills, the glass is secured to the railing using glass clamps or glass holders, providing a modern, transparent appearance. A bar infill, on the other hand, consists of slim stainless steel tubes or stainless steel bars that are arranged either horizontally or vertically. This results in an airy design that is both modern and appealing. For a more unique industrial look, cables, webs or metal plates can be mounted to the stair railings.

Glass railings provide another option for achieving a transparent look. These are stair railings where the majority of the railing is made from glass. This results in a particularly modern and elegant look. Handrails made from stainless steel or other materials can also be fitted to glass railings.

When it comes to materials, we make sure that the stair railings comply with the requirements of the building code and thus also guarantee the aspect of safety. We will be happy to advise you on the selection of the right material and design for your stair railing.

Safety is our priority: Childproof stair railings

With regard to child safety for stair railings, certain aspects should be considered to prevent children from using the railing as a climbing aid and endangering themselves. Here are some tips:

  1. Distance between the bars: The distance between the bars should be small enough to prevent children from climbing through the railing. 
  2. Enclosures: It is important that the stair railing is closed off at both ends to prevent children from climbing through the sides of the railing.
  3. Choice of materials: It is recommended that infill materials such as horizontal bars or wire mesh are not used, as they could act as a climbing aid for children. Instead, stair railings should have smooth surfaces, vertical bars or transparent materials such as glass to provide less temptation to climb
  4. Supervision: A supervisor can help to prevent children from using the stair railing as a climbing aid.

It is important that stair railings are carefully planned and constructed with child safety in mind in order to minimise the risks for children.

Vi prioriterar säkerhet: Barnsäkra trappräcken

När det gäller barnsäkerhet hos trappräckena bör vissa aspekter övervägas för att förhindra att barn klättrar på räcket och utsätter sig själva för fara. Här är några tips:

  1. Avstånd mellan stängerna: Avståndet mellan stängerna bör vara tillräckligt litet för att förhindra att barn klättrar genom räcket. 
  2. Kapslingar: Det är viktigt att trappräcket är avskärmat i båda ändarna så att barnen inte kan klättra genom räckets sidor.
  3. Val av material: Vi rekommenderar att du inte använder fyllnadsmaterial såsom horisontella stänger eller trådnät eftersom de kan fungera som klätterhjälpmedel för barn. Istället bör trappräckena ha släta ytor, vertikala stänger eller genomskinliga material, såsom glas. Dessa ger mindre frestelse att klättras upp på.
  4. Övervakning: En handledare kan hjälpa till att förhindra att barn använder trappräcket som klätterhjälpmedel.

Det är viktigt att trappräckena är noggrant planerade och konstruerade med barnsäkerhet i åtanke för att minimera riskerna för barn.
