How do you attach a handrail to the wall?
To attach a handrail to the wall securely, follow these steps:
- Determine Placement: Mark the height of the handrail on the wall, typically 900mm to 1000mm above the tread. Use a level to ensure the marks are straight and consistent.
- Install Brackets: Securely install the handrail brackets at regular intervals (no more than 900mm apart) according to the measurements. Ensure each bracket is fastened into the studs or masonry for optimal stability.
- Attach the Handrail: Place the handrail onto the installed brackets and align it correctly. Use screws or bolts to secure the handrail to the brackets, ensuring a tight fit. If the handrail is long, you may need to join multiple sections.
- Finish and Test: Double-check the handrail for level and make sure all fasteners are tightened properly. Test the handrail for stability by applying light pressure.
