How it works
Just 3 steps away from your perfect handrail solution.
Measuring up is straight forward to do, if you're able to do it yourself you can view our handy guide for tips or contact us to book a free of charge site visit (location dependent).

Step 1.
Choose your perfect design
Start by choosing the right solution for you, whether it's for steps, a path or for a balcony you can filter by material to find your perfect design. Once you’ve found the style you like take note of the design’s name & code (#) as we'll ask for this when quoting.
Step 2.
Measure up
As our handrails are made to measure, we need measurements to be able to provide you with a quote. We ask our customers for the overall length of the handrail required, if you require assistance when measuring up contact us on 01903 204867. Alternatively, we offer free site visits to those that are within our area of installation, there is currently a 1-2 week waiting time for this service.
Step 3.
Contact us
Provide us with the name and code of your preferred design along with your measurements and a photo of where you’d like the handrail fitted, we can then provide you with a quote. Simply email us at info@thehandrailpeople.co.uk or fill out a Get a Quote form.

Adding handrails or other adaptations to a Leasehold or Rented home
If you need a handrail or other mobility aids in your home due to disability, illness or age the best first step is to get a needs assessment.
