Can this be cut down to any height and width?

Yes it can, Generally we would advise you keep the system at its designed height as this ensures it meets UK building regulations. You can cut the rail to a smaller size width/length wise, buy using a circular saw or angle grinder with a fresh metal cutting blade. This will allow for a clean cut/finish. You can cut the rail down to any length you require. This would require you to cut the top and bottom rail, ensuring an even distribution of the spindle holes remain across the bottom rail.

Can you cut this with a hacksaw?

Yes you can. You will get a better finish and it will be quicker if you use a circular saw or angle grinder, with a fresh metal cutting blade.
