  2. It is important to follow the regulations. Whether you are a homeowner or builder, you need to read the local building codes. From the height of the railing to handrails Canberra, there are written norms about everything. You have to see what kind of material is allowed, what should be the sturdiness, what is the minimum length needed, and so on. Before you finalize the design plan, it is essential to read the rule book. It avoids duplication of work and loss of resources. Do not hesitate in calling an expert or another relevant authority. List out your needs first, and then see what best can be done. https://www.abfabrications.com.au

  3. If you see the specifications, then there is no mention of the number of steps. The rule says that the total rise of the steps more than three feet requires rails or handrails Canberra. For calculating the height, they consider the difference between the bottom of the stairs and the top edge. Or in other words, the height difference from the ground to the area you want to reach. https://www.abfabrications.com.au

  4. What if there are only three steps? Again, you will have to see the local rules. In the majority of the cases, the rise is considered and not the actual number of roofs. It means, height is important and not the number of stairs. The provision of handrails is mandatory for all stairways that have a rise of at least three feet. Does it apply to all properties? No, as for the building code, it doesn’t apply. If you think that stairs are subject to inspection, then there is no need to abide by codes. However, it is a good idea to check and confirm local rules. https://www.abfabrications.com.au

  5. The benefit of the handrail is that it provides safety. Does a stairway of six steps need handrails? Again, you have to calculate the height. Normally, a stair with six steps will have a height of more than six feet. Hence, you will require rails. Do some people have a doubt that whether they have to install handrails Canberra on both sides? The answer is that on the unprotected side of the steps you need handrails. So, in most cases, the handrails will be on both sides. If there is a wall on one side, then the rails will be needed on one side. When the wall is on the right side, then the rails should be on the left side. It is necessary to ensure the safety of the people by installing rails. https://www.abfabrications.com.au
