Installation

The balustrade system we provide is component-based, and can be fixed by anyone competent in DIY. It is fitted by fixing steel posts mounts first to joists or beams and then sliding composite sleeves over the top and securing the handrails in a similar manner. Read our full installation guide for more information.

Our installation guide gives full instructions on installing onto steps or stairs. The balustrade system is designed to be flexible to allow for stairs, with a fully adjustable bracket for fixing handrails at your required height and angle, and posts and mounts which can be cut to length, as required.

General woodworking tools will cut composite balustrades with relative ease. It is important to consider the type of blade you use to cut the material, however, we recommend carbide-tipped blades and if using circular saws, a blade with 40-50 teeth is best.
