FAQs

• Can the black and satin systems be mixed together?

  It is possible, but for a consistent appearance we recommend choosing one finish. Customers usually select black for a striking, modern statement and satin for a classic stainless look.

• Is glass returnable if the size is wrong?

  No. Glass is custom cut and non-returnable once manufactured. CAD drawings are always provided for approval before cutting.

• What is the difference between this system and the Semi Frameless system?

  Both systems use the same 978mm posts and 900mm glass panels from our Semi Frameless range, but they’re finished differently. The Post Handrail System use saddle fittings on top of the posts to support a stainless-steel tube, creating a continuous, easy-to-grip handrail (ideal for stairs and high-traffic areas). TheSemi Frameless option is topped with post caps for a glass-led look without a tube. For materials, satin components are 316 stainless steel, while black components are 304 stainless steel. Both configurations are designed to meetUK Building Regulations.

• Is the Post Handrail System compliant with UK Building Regulations?

  Absolutely. The combination of 978 mm posts, 900 mm high glass panels, and the saddle-mounted handrail tube ensures the system meets the height (1100mm) and load requirements of UK Building Regulations for domestic and most commercial applications.

• Can the post system be used on stairs?

  Yes, the Post Handrail System is ideal for stair installations. We recommend using the Handrail Saddle Bracket with Adjustable Spigot, which allows the tube to be aligned at the correct angle to follow the slope of your stairs. This ensures a safe, smooth, and continuous handrail run.

• How does the saddle bracket secure the tube?

  Each saddle bracket is engineered to hold the 42.4 mm stainless steel tube firmly in place. Once the tube is cut to size and positioned on the saddles, it is fixed with screws for a secure installation. The result is a robust handrail that looks seamless and provides reliable support.

• How do I clean and maintain the satin finish?

  The satin stainless steel finish is low maintenance. We recommend periodic cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft cloth to remove dirt and contaminants. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.

• How easy is the system to install?

  Installation is straightforward. Pre-drilled posts ensure accurate clamp positioning, and the system is designed for ease of assembly by competent DIYers or professional installers.

• Can the system be used in coastal or exposed areas?

  Yes. The Satin system is manufactured from 316 marine grade stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and ideal for use in exposed or coastal environments.

• Can laminated glass be used in this system?

  Yes. Laminated glass can be supplied if required, and in some installations (such as certain balconies or commercial projects) laminated glass is essential to meet regulations.

• Is the glass returnable if the size is incorrect?

  No. As each panel is cut to order, glass is non-returnable once manufactured. To avoid errors, CAD drawings are provided for your approval before cutting.
