Handrail suggestions, please

Good evening everyone,

We are looking to buy a handrail for our stairs.

Looking at Google they seem to range from £100 onwards.

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for the best retailers to go to, please? Has anyone found any good bargains recently?

Thank you

    If it is for someone that has mobility issues then your local council should be able to install one free of charge.
    You will need to phone the social services and ask for an assessment, they will arrange someone to come and assess what they can do to help you stay in home and make it as accessible as possible. It includes ramps or rails for outside your front door, hand rails to make it safer to get up and down stairs plus other things.

    Toolstation £70 for silver one inc rail and brackets.

    Think the last wooden one I got from local wood supplier for £27 for 3.6m but that needed staining or painting. Bought brackets from Screwfix.


    I'd go look in B@Q , as they sell everything. They have a stair building materials section in store. Go look as they have some prefinished rails which is easier. Just cut to length and fit rail end caps. (edited)

    Does this help diy.com/sea…ail quite a few at B & Q and if you sign up to their club you will get a voucher to give you some more money off.
