Handrail Types

Paragon offers a number of handrail materials from solid wood of varying shapes to polished brass. Our more standard materials include vinyl and aluminum, each with their own advantages and applications.

Vinyl

– is no charge and comes included in the basic spiral stair kit. Nothing complicated or fancy, vinyl handrails are industry standard and install very easy! It’s simply a black, PVC tubing that is 1.5” diameter. Vinyl handrails are great for two reasons: they are very sturdy as they have a nice thick wall and it’s still easy enough to get a curve out of vinyl to meet the shape of your spiral stair with ease.

Aluminum

– our aluminum handrail comes with a mill finish (not polished) and is pre formed here at the factory to your helix shape for ease of installation. Unless you need to meet building code, you can stick with the vinyl handrails if you want to save money. Despite an additional cost, aluminum handrails look great and is a great choice for a sleek and attractive look.

Brass

– is a sharp option great for indoors on our Configurable Steel and Configurable Forged Iron options. The highly polished surface provides a great focal point for the actual spiral aspect of the stair. For only a small up-charge, this option is the perfect route to that added element of sophistication.

Solid Wood

– is a great way to add an element of natural beauty to either our Configurable Steel, Forged Iron, or Solid wood lines. You can select from any of 13 species, domestic and exotic options, to create just the right tone of refinement to suit your decor. All wood components come in their natural, unfinished state so you can custom stain them to match your space exactly.

Unlike all of our other materials which only come in standard round/tube shape with caps for the handrail, our solid wood handrail handrails come in three options for shapes.

1) Solid Wood 2″ Round, which is similar to the tube shape of the other materials.
2) Solid Wood 3″ Round, which has more of an oval shape to it.
3) Solid Wood 3″ Bead & Finger Groove, which has an almost hourglass type shape the tapers toward the middle on both ends.
