Professional half landing rail fitting for Devon homes - support rail on the turn of stairs where you need it for safe transitions.
Support On The Turn
Half landings are tricky. The stair rail ends, you're turning, nothing to hold. A landing rail keeps you steady. Support through the whole journey.
💡 Pro tip: The turn often involves changing direction and grip. A landing rail means you're never without something to hold during the most awkward part.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the landing need a rail?
The turn is where many people feel unsteady. Main handrails often end, leaving nothing to hold on the landing. A rail bridges that gap.
What type of rail?
Usually a short grab rail or handrail section matching your existing rails. Positioned where you naturally reach when turning.
How is it fixed?
Into solid wall at the correct height. Proper fixings that take full weight. Positioned for the turn movement.
Can you extend existing handrails?
Yes - if your current rails stop before the landing, we can extend them or add a separate landing rail to fill the gap.
