Hi there,
Might sound a funny question but I can't seem to find much online about it...
I am mounting a new basic, round handrail onto a solid concrete wall on my stairs in my new house. The "diagonal" length of the walls between the bottom landing and the mid landing is 3.2m. I will not be putting anything for the 2 steps between the mid landing and the top landing.
So the questions are.
1) How much shorter than the "diagonal" should I make the handrail to avoid hitting it every time I come round the corner from my living room?
2) Will 4 of the brackets holding the rail onto the wall be enough?
3) How far should I put the first brackets from the end of the rail?
4) And finally, what height off the stairs should the rail be positioned?
Cheers for any advice
