Iron X HandrailArch #2 (Concrete Steps)

Made in the USA, very nice quality. I ordered a total of 8 of these to place on the steps around our home. Easy to install as long as you have the a hammer drill to drill the holes in the concrete. You will also need a grinder to cut them to the proper length you need. Once installed one and figured out the process, the rest were easy.

We had a few steps out the backdoor that needed a handrail. This one was a perfect fit. Well constructed and sturdy. I had it installed by a contractor to make sure it would be firm. While you can install it yourself, unless you are very very handy with tools, I would suggest professional installation. Our handrail was set into concrete and needed some tailoring. Very happy with end result. Adds a high level of safety.

I bought two of these (#1 and #2) for my 93 year old mother and these are not only attractive but very sturdy. I would recommend these very highly. These are made of thick, heavy steel and are very sturdy. Do not waste your money on cheap, thin, flimsy handrails. Buy these & you won't regret it!

Teriffic DIY rail. Fairly easy and straight forward to install. Very sturdy and well made. You will need to use a hammer drill to sink the anchor bolts in concrete. The length bolts you need depends on the foundation you are installing to. Go to the manufacturer website for correct information, not what Amazon listed. I used Tapcon anchors that are available from Lowes and Home Depot. 5/16" x 2 1/4" anchorsare the proper size for a poured concrete step. Besides the drill, all you need is a level, hard rubber mallet and a wrench or ratchet for the anchors-maybe a hacksaw if you have to trim a leg for non standard stair heights. I installed mine alone. but a second set of hands would be helpful.

Excellent product. Very good workmanship and sturdiness, and installation was quite easy. The only part of the process where I needed help was when my wife held the railing level so I could measure what to trim off. The toughest part of the whole deal was drilling eight anchor holes in concrete. For anchoring, I opted to use sleeve anchors over screws, as I have no intention of ever removing the anchors, and sleeves take less effort to install than screws do. (I also didn't like that Tapcon says only use screws about an inch longer than the material. That seemed insufficient for the support I was seeking.)

I like the railing, but am frustrated because my contractor has been unable to install it. I have flagstone steps an his drills, even the diamond tipped ones, don't seem to be able to drill through so the brackets can be installed. This is not the railing's problem though.

This is awesome. I have bad knees and climbing steps is agony. Now I have this handrail that I can hang on to on one side and then my cane on the other. Very sturdy.Just ordered another one for the other side of the steps to help me when I go down the outside stairs. Looks great!

This handrail is well constructed, wasn't difficult to mount. The finish is nice. I do think that maybe it is a bit pricey for what it is, but overall, I am satisfied with this purchase.
