Interior handrails are typically made from metal, stainless steel, or wood. Common examples listed are wrought iron and aluminum alloy (metal), high‑grade 304 stainless steel, and premium pine wood.
Kits generally support wall‑mount and surface‑mount installations and often include pre‑drilled posts or brackets. Typical hardware supplied for different surfaces includes lag screws, concrete anchors, and self‑drilling or machine screws for wood, metal, or concrete mounting.
Many kits allow both height and angle adjustment to fit uneven steps; a common adjustable range given is 0°–75°, so the rail can be positioned without cutting to match stair geometry.
Handrails often feature textured or non‑slip surfaces, ergonomic or oval grip profiles, and smooth rounded edges—combinations designed to improve comfort and reduce slipping.
They’re typically used on interior staircases, hallways, basements, lofts, and in apartments. Listings also often note suitability for porches, garages, or decks where extra support is needed.
