Midrail FAQ
- What does a midrail do?
A midrail, as part of a handrail built over a ramp or stairs, serves several purposes:
- Additional Support: Provides an extra surface for people of shorter heights, such as children, to grab.
- Safety Barrier: Prevents people from falling through gaps beneath the main handrail, especially on ramps or stairs high off the ground.
- Compliance: Meets certain building codes and accessibility guidelines that mandate midrails as part of handrail systems.
- Why is a midrail used with a balustrade?
Midrails are not always used with balustrades, but in some cases, they are combined for aesthetic purposes. Together, they form an effective safety barrier.
- What are midrails made out of?
Midrails, like all handrails, can be made from various materials. The most common are aluminum and wood.
- Can midrails be installed on existing rails?
Technically, midrails can be installed or retrofitted onto existing handrails, but this is not common practice.
- What are the dimensions of a midrail in real life?
Midrails typically have a diameter of 30 to 65 millimeters and are installed approximately 550 millimeters above the ground surface, ramp, or step.
