  • 6 Tips To Pick The Right Stair Rail For Your Dream Home

6 Tips To Pick The Right Stair Rail For Your Dream Home

Building your dream home is something you should never take lightly. Why? Well, apart from the fact that you’re going to live in it, building a home is expensive and incredibly time-consuming. You want everything to be as perfect as possible, and this means focusing on the essential details. One of these details is your stair rails, given you have stairs, of course.

So, how do you ensure you pick the right stair railing design that will fit your dream home? Here are a few tips to follow:

Always Prioritise Safety

Safety is a top priority when it comes to stair railings. It’s not just because you want your family to be as safe as possible during their time in your home, but it’s also because your home has to pass building standards. So, when choosing your railing, no matter the design you pick or like, always make sure it’s safe enough to pass building standards.

Consider the Staircase Size

There are many different types of staircases. Two of the most common are straight and curved. They can also be open, semi-open and enclosed staircases. If you’re not sure which one you have, take a look at your staircase before you try to find a railing design. This will help you find a railing that fits your staircase, no matter the size and shape.

Consider Your Budget

Stair railings can be very expensive, depending on what style you choose. The most common stair railings are those made of metal, while the most expensive are likely to be the wooden ones. If you do have a strict budget, consider this when you are shopping around for your railing design.

Choose The Right Materials

When it comes to materials, you could choose anything from metal to brass or wooden and even glass. Always consider the type of materials your overall home is made from before you start shopping for your stair railing. Also, don’t forget to factor in the cost of the materials.

Keep Your Style In Mind

Every home will have a particular design or style. This isn’t just about the type of colour or the decorations used, but about the materials and the overall look of the home. If you want your home to be traditional, for example, you’ll need to choose a stair railing design that fits that style, from a marble or glass baluster rail.

Select a Durable Design

Once you’ve found a design you like that fits your home, make sure it’s durable. This means it must be able to withstand the elements and last as long as possible. This means it’s important to choose a design that, above all, is made from strong materials. Although you might pay a little more for a durable railing design, it’s likely to be worth it.

Conclusion

Of course, there’s a lot more to stair railings than what’s been covered here. When you’re decorating your home and trying to find the best design for your staircase, always make sure you’re keeping in mind the safety of your family and the building code.

Once you’ve taken the above into consideration, you’ll be able to find a design you love that will work best with the overall feel of your home!
