Handrail | Black & Oak
Our Black & Oak Handrail is the best of both worlds and offers a sleek alternative to standard handrails, yet keeping hold of its vintage look. The handrail itself is from solid Oak, machined into a perfect 45mm diameter handrail. The Oak is then finished off with black powder brackets & matching flat ends.
We leave our handrails unfinished so the customer can add a finish of their choice, however they can be fitted as delivered. It is highly recommended that these timber rails are not fitted externally. The photos on our website have been applied with one coat of Danish oil.
Including suitable screws and wall plugs.
- Lengths below and including 2m have 2no brackets.
- Lengths below and including 3m have 3no brackets.
- Lengths below and including 4m have 4no brackets.
All handrails will be delivered in one complete length for all our black & oak handrails, so please ensure you can get the larger sections through doors and around corners etc.
Our wall brackets and end caps are also in a 320 grit finish and really set the handrail off and give it that impressive look, our fittings are imported from Italy and are of the highest quality on the market.
All countersunk brass wood screws are supplied with our items so there are no extra costs when it comes to you fitting the item.

Installation
Prior to fitting, please store your rails on a flat surface, do not leave them overhanging or propped up as this can cause the wood to warp.
- Safely get your handrail into your building/ installation area.
- Unpack rail.
- Offer the plastic end cap retainer to the rail and fix it centrally using the woodscrew provided, push on the stainless steel end cap. The same process should be used to attach the joiner, if one is required.
- Decide on a location for your brackets and offer them to the rail. Mark them with a pencil and screw into position.
- Offer your rail with the brackets on against the wall, use a pencil and carefully mark out the position of the holes. Repeat this until all holes are marked.
- Double check all positions prior to drilling.
- Once you’re satisfied, drill all the holes to suit a No.12 woodscrew. Pilot holes must be drilled on the rail to prevent damage or fitting problems.
- Offer wall rail back up and fix using No.12 woodscrews and plugs if required.
- Admire your new rail.
Please note: Due to the nature of the product, we strongly advise against using self-tapping screws and electric screwdrivers when fitting this product. It is important that pilot holes are drilled first, and only handheld screwdrivers are used in order to prevent damage to fittings and rails.
Cleaning Instructions/ Maintenance
As the handrail comes unfinished, it is recommended that a lacquer or stain is regularly applied to prolong the life of the rail.
