Description

You have answered that the rail you currently have is a decorative/picture rail. We recommend that you have an additional banister/stair rail fitted to help you climb your stairs. This rail will provide a better surface to grip as there will be space between the wall and the rail to place your fingers allowing a firm hold. You may wish to have the additional rail fitted above or below your current decorative rail, depending on what is most comfortable and provide the best support. We would recommend contacting a local handyman/fitting service to complete this work for you. Please go to the Tradesmen section in your solutions list, and view "Help from a Qualified Fitter"for more information on arranging the fitting of this solution.

Help with fitting

If the products you are ordering are fixed to the wall or floor, we recommend that you contact a local fitter/handyman to complete this work. It is always a good idea to use someone who has been recommended to you.

We recommend that you ask a qualified joiner and/or plumber to fit grab rails in your home, depending on where you are fitting this. Discuss what position will help you most with your fitter. The fitters will know whether you have a solid or stud wall and fit the rail appropriately. Please ensure that any grab rail you use is fitted according to the manufacturer’s instructions as there are safety standards that need to be taken in to account.
