Stairs, lifts, and access points need some additional security features installed to maximise their functionality. Handrails, for instance, help to avoid falling in case of any slips, accidents, or other instability issues while using lifts or staircases.
Handrail brackets are a tiny handrail accessory that keeps the bars and grab rails securely fastened to walls or balustrades. Despite the small size, they can make an impact on the overall decor scheme and bring the space together. Staircase railing brackets are available in a range of materials and finishes, from antique brass to contemporary chrome designs.
This type of handrail fittings is designed for railings and balustrades entirely or partially made of glass. The brackets can be installed in the pre-drilled holes and fastened through the glass panel, or fixed between two panels. A cap rail can be added to the top after that.
Handrail brackets for balusters can be glued to the top or screwed on the side of the panel. Different models are available on the market, suitable for a range of square and round profiles.
For handrails fitted to provide additional safety in places such as bathrooms and lifts, brackets designed specifically for walls are the best solution. This type of railing supports is available for various distances and tube diameters, with and without rosettes.
The antique appearance and warm hue of brass make an excellent match with genuine wood such as oak or pine. It also blends well with other warm-hued metals such as copper or gold. Brass is an ideal material of choice for a traditional staircase railing or classic luxury decor.
Another good choice for wooden rails is the muted shade of brushed nickel. It’s slightly colder than brass but warmer than chrome, making it a very versatile option suitable for different styles. It works well with all warm-hued wood species and finishes, especially oak. In addition, the brushed effect on the surface also bears the advantage of concealing fingerprints and dirt spots.
A modern surface finish with a thin layer of chromium provides a cold, highly reflective surface ideal for contemporary schemes. Its sleek and refined look is a perfect way to discreetly accentuate modern minimal staircase railing designs, and it works well with most wood species.
The matte black finish is a fashionable choice for fixtures in modern interiors. It also works great on handrail brackets, adding a refined, sleek accent to staircases, walls, and balustrades.
White brackets are ideal for discrete schemes, such as fixing a white primed handrail to a white wall to create a seamless look. They also work well with light wood hues.
Handrail brackets can greatly differ in fashion. Their styles range from the simplest units - ideal for minimalist environments - to intricate decorative elements designed to make a statement in classic schemes.
Simple designs are typically more affordable, but that also depends on the material and finish used. Accent pieces feature elaborated details such as petal rosettes suited for traditional decor, or versatile geometric patterns - and come with a price to match.
Depending on the material, finish, and application, handrail brackets care and maintenance instruction may vary. On average, occasional cleaning is sufficient.
The best way to clean metal balustrade accessories is to wipe them with a gentle cloth. It’s also possible to use a mild cleaning solution when necessary. Harsh abrasives and strong chemical cleaners should be avoided, particularly for cleaning matte black, white, or brass brackets.
As with all kinds of fittings, heavy use might cause the handrail brackets to loosen over time, particularly if handled as support around wall and ceiling hatches. In such a case, it’s advised first to inspect the connections and make sure everything is properly fitted into its place. All fasteners can then be retightened gently. In case of resistance, it’s good to recheck the holes for any obstacles rather than forcing pressure that might damage the components.
Some bracket models can be easily de-mounted, which is convenient for transporting furniture pieces and other large objects. Then it’s possible to attach them back or relocate entirely.
Just like all other metal accessories, handrail brackets can be used outdoors if a protective clear coat is applied, or the material is resistant to rust and corrosion. Black and white brackets typically feature a coat of paint that is protective by itself. Most models are safe for use in dry or mild climates; however, it’s best to follow specific manufacturer’s instructions regarding applications in areas with a lot of humidity.
In any case, exposure to sunlight and elements will probably lead to a certain degree of fading over time.
