ADA Railing FAQs

Do I need a handrail on both sides of my stairs?

Yes, to be ADA-compliant, you must have railings on both sides of your stairs, and those handrails must adhere to all ADA handrail requirements.

Is there a maximum distance between handrails on stairs for ADA compliance?

No, there is no requirement for a maximum distance between handrails.

Are ADA handrails required on staircases with only a few steps?

Yes, if a staircase has more than one riser, handrails are required on both sides of the stairs.

Are stairs required if a building has an ADA ramp?

No, but stairs are often provided alongside ramps for those who prefer to use them.

Can handrails be interrupted at landings on stairs?

No, handrails must be smooth and continuous along the full length of the stairs and must not be interrupted at landings except at doorways.

Can both handrails be mounted directly on the wall?

Yes, so long as they provide 1.5 inches of clearance from the wall for easy gripping.

How much weight must a ramp railing be able to support?

According to International Building Code 1607.8.1.1, which correlates with ADA guidelines, handrails must be able to withstand a concentrated load of 200 lbs. in the outward and downward direction.

Calculating Railing Length

This simple way to do this is to have someone stand at the bottom of the steps holding the end of the measuring tape. Walk to the top fo the stairs while each of you hold the measuring tape 3 feet off the ground. Record the length when you have positioned the ends where you want the railing to begin and end. In most cases, estimating to the nearest foot works great.

Tip: Longer is better. Your hand rail can be cut shorter if needed before install.

The mathematical way of calculating would be to measure the rise and run of the steps and then calculate the length of the railing by the following formula:

Railing Length = √ height2 + length2

The square root of the height squared plus the length squared will give you the proper length of your railing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tools do I need?

You will receive an allen key with your railing kit that can be used to connect the pipe and fittings. We recommend using a hammer or rubber mallet to secure the malleable plug to the ends of the handrail and a standard drill or a hammer drill if you will be attaching your railing to concrete or brick.

How do I assemble the railing?

This couldn't be easier. You'll receive a basic set of instructions with the railing kit or you can download them now by clicking on the download link at the bottom of this page.

Can I paint the railing?

You sure can! All of our kits can be painted. Many of our customers have used spray paint to add a splash of color to their railing. Depending on the frequency of use and weather, the paint may need to be touched up on occasion.

Can I cut the tubing myself on an abrasive-wheel chop saw?

Yes, you can. Simply make sure you have the correct blade for cutting galvanized metal.

Can these be mounted to wooden stairways?

Yes, they can. Our railing kits come with mounting hardware for both wood and concrete included. You should have no problem mounting this railing to wood.

Do these rails or any of the parts rust?

Our railings are comprised of galvanized cast-iron fittings and triple-galvanized steel rails. They are designed to withstand the elements and, in most cases, will not show rust for decades to come.

How many posts do I need?

We recommend no more than a 7 foot spacing between posts. All kits up to 7 feet will come with 2 posts. Kits longer than 7 feet will come with 3 posts.
