Installation Guide
SECONDARY HANDRAIL INSTALL DIAGRAM
Secondary Handrail Installation Instructions – Page 1
• The height of the secondary handrail must be installed between
34" and 38" above the surface, regardless of the height of the rail.
• We recommend that handrails be dry-fit prior to final installation to
eliminate cutting and fastening errors.
• IMPORTANT: The secondary handrail must be attached to a structural
support. When installing mounting brackets on post sleeves, ensure
the hardware is securely attached to the structural support.
• For maximum strength, brackets should be used at every post and
as close as possible to every joint.
• An adhesive may be applied to further reinforce construction.
• Handrails must be supported every 6' on-center by a mounting bracket.
Prior to construction, check with your local regulatory agency for
special code requirements in your area.
Start with an inside corner piece when applicable.
