Importance of Handrails

A well-designed and fabricated handrail offers support, guidance, and safety. It may also impact how users interact with their surroundings. 

Handrail applications include: 

• Stairs
• Around platforms
• Along ramps
• Stair towers
• Crossovers
• Mezzanines
• Around large tanks
• Water reclamation equipment
• Catwalks
• Ramps

A railing system determines how safe an environment will be. Investing in custom-manufactured railings from an experienced fab shop often pays for itself.

In addition, a handrail can alter the aesthetics of a commercial staircase. With a fabricated handrail specifically made for your project, you can create a staircase that is not only functional but also nice to look at.

Quality Counts

The entire purpose of handrails is safety. This means the quality of the handrail fabrication is important. To achieve the highest quality, Swanton Welding's skilled team of professionals use a wide array of metalworking processes and equipment to build handrails according to exact project specifications. 

Fabrication processes used may include:

• Bending
• Drilling
• Grinding
• Welding
• Pipe forming
• Laser and plasma cutting

The most popular metals used for railings are carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum. However, a wide array of metals can be used.

Benefits of Structural Steel Handrails

While a wide variety of metals can be used for custom fabricated handrails, the majority are made of structural steel. This is largely due to the many benefits structural steel handrails offer.

• Durability

You need a strong, durable material for making handrails to ensure complete safety. This makes using structural steel a no-brainer. Structural steel is much stronger than other materials and is rust-proof so it weathers well.

• Easy to Maintain

Structural steel handrails are extremely low-maintenance. All you have to do is wipe them down with a brush or damp cloth to keep them clean and shiny.
