Questions and Answers for EZ Handrail 6 ft. Charcoal Bronze Aluminum Round Straight Handrail Kit

A:  Hi Derek. The mounting brackets can be installed (predrilled into handrail and fastened) anywhere within 2 inches of the ends of the handrail. Thank you for your question. Dan H. (EZ Handrail Dev. Team)

A:  the mounting brackets are stationary

A:  we supply 5/16X2.5'' LAG SCREW with the appropriate color bolt cap with the Kit. You can use any 5/16 fastener you prefer that is appropriate for Masonry application.

A:  yes DebbieR

A:  Yes, this handrail is paintable. We recommend scuffing the surface and using a solvent paint over the powder coat surface.

A:  Yes and the whole system is superb. BTW you can shorten the hand rail with a metal cutting saw - but remove the end cap first.- and then smooth the cut off end inside and outside with a file to allow you to replace the end cap.

A:  Hi Mark. Confirming an excellent and much-appreciated Community Answer, yes, the end caps, wood mounting fasteners, and brackets are included. If you are mounting onto a concrete wall please search for our masonry fastener pack (Tapcons), Model #EZAT225-W. Thank you for a great question and thanks Community for the quick response. Dan H.

A:  yes, very nice unit. when all decks are done I will be purchasing 3 more.

A:  Hi Rick. If you are attaching the handrail to our 3" x 3" EZ posts, then I recommend the 1/4" x 4" through bolts going through both post walls then a washer and nut. If you cut of the excess bolt the black caps will then hide both the head and nut. If you are going into a thick-wall metal (steel or aluminum) a #14 x 1.5" or 2" self-drilling fastener will work well. I always recommend piloting the hole. Thank you for your question. Dan H.

A:  Hi Raye. As you've indicated the best (and only) way to install Copper Vein handrails greater than 8ft is to spice lengths together using the 5" splice, model# EZA650-M. Thank you for your question. Dan H. (EZ Handrail Dev. Team)

A:  There is a 4' section available. But the cost is more.

A:  You need to cut it

A:  I have the black metal one in 8 foot.  Love it.  Good quality but I don’t know if it comes in 4 foot.  I bought a four footer in wood which works but not as impressive as the metal.
