The Process of Installing a Railing
Installing railings along your stairs is an important project. You need them to be code-compliant, sturdy, and attractive, so make sure you know the entire process of installation. Start this project by measuring your stairs. Measurements should be taken from the top to bottom plus two feet. You can then find appropriate lengths of material at your local lumberyard of home center. Next, you’ll need to find and mark studs. These studs need to be at appropriate heights, meaning 34-38 inches above the front edge.
