What is a "handrail"?
A handrail is a long, horizontal support structure designed to provide stability and assistance for individuals using stairs, ramps, or walkways. Typically installed along the edge of a staircase or the sides of a ramp, handrails are meant to be grasped for support, helping to prevent falls and improve safety. They can be made from various materials, such as wood, metal, or plastic, and can come in different designs and heights to accommodate users. In addition to their functional purpose, handrails can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of a space, contributing to the overall design of the building.
