Important Product and Safety Information
Each parapet handrail is individually welded at our own facility with precision craftsmanship. Due to the manufacturing process, minor, superficial marks or slight scratches may occur, which do not affect the product's function or stability in any way. If you ever notice a cosmetic flaw within your direct field of view, simply send us an email with a photo taken from a normal viewing distance of approximately 80 cm. Please understand that close-up photos taken from a shorter distance cannot be accepted as grounds for a complaint.
Safety First: Since stainless steel can have sharp edges during processing, please wear appropriate protective gloves when unpacking and installing it. We assume no liability for damage or injury resulting from improper handling or errors made during self-assembly.

Information on product safety:
Warning notices:
- Use suitable mounting material! Please ensure that you use suitable mounting material for your surface. If you are unsure which dowel or screw you need for your wall, please seek advice from a specialist dealer. If the handrail is not fixed correctly, it may fail in an emergency!
- Follow the care instructions! Please note that stainless steel must be cleaned regularly and generally cared for. Otherwise the material may lose its rustproof properties.
- Risk of rust! The handrail is only slightly resistant to chemicals and acids in particular. For this reason, we must advise against using it in aggressive environments, as it damages the corrosion protection and could lead to material failure. For example, it is not recommended for use near pools, in cities with high levels of air pollution or in places in the immediate vicinity of the sea!
Installation instructions:
In the following instructions, we assume that you are installing the handrail on a wall in order to subsequently raise this parapet with the handrail.
Tool list:
In addition to suitable screws and plugs, you will need the following tools to attach the handrail:
- Rule (folding rule) or tape measure
- Pencil
- Drill
- Twist drill (suitable for the substrate and the selected dowel)
- Socket wrench (ratchet - suitable for the selected screw)
Step by step explanation:
As soon as you have the above-mentioned tools and enough screws and dowels to hand, you can start installing the handrail. Simply follow the steps below and the job will be done in no time.
- Place the handrail on the wall to which it is to be attached.
- Align the handrail as desired. The best way to do this is to measure the distance between the handrail brackets and the outer edges of the balustrade.
- Next, carefully lift the cover rosettes of the handrail supports and transfer the holes of all anchor plates to the wall. To do this, simply run your pencil along the inside of the holes so that you draw corresponding circles on your wall.
- Put the handrail to one side.
- Now drill holes in the wall in the middle of all the markings. Make sure that the drill bit is always aligned at right angles to the surface and follow any instructions provided by the wall plug manufacturer. It is quite common for the manufacturer of the fixing material to specify certain diameters and drill hole depths. These specifications must be adhered to!
- If required by the plug manufacturer, clean the drill holes according to the specifications.
- Then insert the dowels into all the drill holes and again ensure that all the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
- Now return the handrail to its position and make sure that the hole pattern of the brackets matches the dowels inserted.
- Now screw the screws through the holes in the handrail brackets into the dowels. Do not tighten the screws yet, however, as this will give you a bit of leeway for the subsequent screws.
- Once you have screwed in all the screws, you can tighten them according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Care instructions:
Please note that the handrail must be cleaned and maintained at regular intervals. If this maintenance is not carried out, or only insufficiently, the material may lose its rust-proof properties. You can use commercially available, non-acidic cleaning agents for cleaning. Please also note that the occurrence of occasional flash rust, especially in outdoor areas, cannot be ruled out. Flash rust should be removed as quickly as possible to avoid any damage to the material.
