Description
A 304 stainless wall bracket with a flat saddle, made to carry a timber or other flat-bottomed handrail indoors. A 60mm round plate screws to the wall, a 12mm round bar arm comes out 80mm and turns up, and the rail sits on a flat 63 x 25mm saddle and is screwed to it from below. It is the classic way to fix an oak, ash, walnut or other hardwood handrail to a wall on stairs and landings in homes, offices, schools and shops. Satin 304 is the grade for indoor and sheltered rails. The price shown is for one bracket, minimum order 5.
What you get
| Sold as | One bracket, minimum order 5 |
|---|---|
| Bracket | Round wall plate, bent 12mm round bar arm and flat saddle in one rigid piece, 304 stainless, satin |
| Not included | The handrail, wall fixings and the screws into the rail |
Why choose this bracket
Made for timber rails. The saddle is flat, so a wooden rail with a flat underside sits on it fully and screws down tight. A curved saddle made for round tube would only touch a timber rail along a line.
Room for your hand. The arm brings the rail 80mm off the wall to the saddle centre, so fingers can wrap round the rail without catching the wall, and the arm comes up from below so a hand slides the full length.
The right grade for indoors. 304 stainless keeps its satin finish on indoor stairs and costs less than 316. For outdoor steps, coastal homes and pool areas choose the 316 flat saddle bracket, which resists salt, chlorine and damp far better.

Fitting
Mark a line on the wall for the top of the rail. The top of the saddle is 65mm above the centre of the plate, so set the plate centres 65mm plus the depth of the rail below that line. Fix the end brackets first, then the rest at even spacing, usually no more than about 1 metre apart, with three screws and plugs or anchors suited to the wall. Lay the rail on the saddles and fix it from below with two wood screws per bracket through the saddle holes. On a stair the rail sits at the pitch of the stair on each flat saddle.
Safety. Handrail height, bracket spacing and fixings must suit the stair and the wall, to Approved Document K and BS 6180 where they apply.
Care
Wipe with warm soapy water and a soft cloth along the grain, then dry. Avoid chlorine bleach, wire wool and scouring pads, and use stainless screws so they do not leave rust marks on the bracket.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one bracket?
Yes, one bracket. The minimum order is 5, enough for a typical flight of stairs.
How many brackets do I need?
Allow one about every metre plus one near each end. A 3 metre rail usually takes 4.
Can I use it with a round stainless tube?
It will hold one, but a round tube only touches the flat saddle along a line. For round tube use a bracket with a curved saddle for 42.4mm or 48.3mm rail.
Are screws included?
No. Use three wall screws and plugs or anchors to suit your wall, and two wood screws into the rail.
Can I use it outside?
304 is fine under cover and away from salt and chlorine. For open outdoor steps, coastal sites and pools, the 316 flat saddle bracket keeps its finish far better.
