CHR Fence & Rail Hand Rails for Outdoor Steps, 5 Step Handrail & Indoor Stair Railing Kit, Railings for Outdoor Steps and Hand Rails for Seniors for Porch Railing & Deck Hand Rail, 4 to 5 Steps

My brother has Parkinsons and had no hand rail to go 6 steps downstairs in his house. Also, it had to be bolted to the wood steps as we could not mount a wall rail. PERFECT!!! 10 stars. Simple clear directions for assembly. A few notes on the install to pass on. The large hex head bolts going into the floor are best installed with pre-drilled holes, so a drill is a must. Then I recommend a socket set to screw the bolts into the wood floor or concrete if mounted outside. They do give you the parts for outside concrete mounting as well but I did not need them. I did have another person helping as I assembled it and then started screwing it together. Can be done alone, but a second set of hands was helpful. There are some self taping screws the assembly that work great but again a drill is a must. Very sturdy, well made and highly recommend if this style had rail is what you are after.

I skeptical how it would look in our yard, but am so happy with it. Looks nice and is sturdy.

The quality of this is amazing. They give you everything you need to install correctly. I also like the rail cover, the handrail isn't hot or cold to touch.

We were in a pickle the we were only in the House a year when one of the old railing broke due to rust. With a wedding on the way we needed a quick fix because custom was more than we wanted to spen and likely2 months to get. I ordered these and they arrived on time and the boxes were in good shape. the internal packaging was also in good shape and the railings were perfect. The box of parts was great and the tools (Small level, ruler, Hex driver, driver extension, drill bits (one wood one concrete), and pencil/depth gauge was a very nice addition (This really came in handy). I tried the included concrete drill bit but that would have take a long time so I opted to rent a small Hammer Drill (Suggestion #1)and that was a good call on my part. The pencil depth gauge worked well because although I set the depth of the hole with the drill depth gauge, The hole got a lot of dust in it so I had to make sure the dust was gone before driving in the anchor bolts. (Suggestion #2 Air compressor or a Can of compressed air (Air Duster)). As my wife and daughter were Wedding Shoe shopping I was left to do the job alone (Suggestion #3 have a helper) After the first one went in the other 3 went in much quicker Oh Yea (Suggestion #4 use a wire tie to hold up the base cover it tends to get in the way and can scratch the finish on the upright. Do not use tape it can leave a residue) All in all it was a good experience and they look great! VERY sturdy (I am 6'2'' 260lbs and it did not move when I needed to use it to stand up) The only thing That they could include is a touch up kit (Paint)for small scratches that happened during one man installation. PS My wife loves them so...Happy Wife, Happy life!

This outdoor railing proves the tenet “ You get what you pay for”! Though it was significantly more expensive, it was obvious to me from the photos and product description online that this was a quality piece. It was made in the US, and was solid, well-designed, and easy to assemble, with thorough and accurate instructions. It was easy to anchor to the bottom step of four composite deck steps and the deck surface. It is very secure and will be a secure aid for visitors to our deck/patio! (I suspect anchoring to concrete might be a more difficult install, but the instructions are clear and well-illustrated. I couldn’t be happier after installing the railing!

Everything was included - even the steel and masonry bits. Well packaged and well protected for shipping. Enough parts were included to do full wood or a full cement/concrete installation - ours ended up with concrete on the bottom and wood/resin on the top. If you do a concrete or cement installation, be sure to use a hammer drill - a regular drill just will not do for the depth that is needed. Other than a drill, the only other tools recommended are a hammer and a good rachet set (1/2" socket). The included pencil was cool as it has a "depth" indicator you can use for making sure your concrete holes are deep engouth - but not too deep. While I can't yet speak about long term weathering, it did install very well. The instructions were well written. Pay attention to the which post is bottom and top - and which way to install the brackets. And don't forget to put on the base protectors BEFORE any other mounting, including the brackets. I'd probably recommend a periodic follow-up coat of black paint / rust preventative wherever drilling or other damage to the powder coating might have occurred. Another tip is to use the directions "pamphlet" (it's about the size of a book of coupons) to slip against the rails as you tighten the bolts to avoid scratching the paint. Overall - very satisfied.

I have mobility issues and needed some extra support on the front porch. We did not want something that looked awkward or out of place and this is what we chose. The installation was very easy just make sure you measure before you purchase to make sure you get the right size. I need the rail to be able to get up the stairs and this rail is very sturdy and durable. For me it is game changer and allows me to be able to get into my home with ease. I would highly recommend it for anyone whatever reason they need it. It looks really nice on the porch and would buy again in a heartbeat.

I wish I could give these railings a 6 rating! I read several negative reviews about this railing but it looked like what I could use on an unusual porch entry step. At almost 84 years old, I still tackle home projects and this one looked being possible for me so I ordered a pair and they arrived the second day via Amazon. Upon opening the boxes, everything seemed to be in great shape so I got what I needed and in about 3 houes, my son in law and I had them both installed. Very sturdy- you can't shake them. I will say you cannot do drilling in concete, like I had to do, without a hammer drill- forget it with a regular drill! Also, you have to have compressed air to blow the holes after you drill so the wedge anchors will have room to fit in the holes. The provided pencil depth gauge was handy. I bought a 3/8" carbide hammer drill bit. and while I was at it, I bought 3/8 X 3 inch sleee anchors, although I am sure the ones in the kit would have worked so I saved them for later use. To those who gave bad reviews about the top railing being blue colored, they obviously didn't realize that is the coloe of the shrik-wrapped plastic covering---it's black when you remove the plastic. The ones who complained about the middle railing being too short--they had the top post in the bottom position. The instruction booklet provided strp-by step instructions and I don't see how anyone with minimal mechanical ability couldn't do this installation.

I don't have much experience with construction or renovations, but you will need an angle grinder, cut off tool or die grinder to cut the metal bars. They are thin though, so it's not too difficult and most tools should succeed. They offer you screws for wood and plastic and anchors for cement/masonry. You will need a hammer drill to drill into cement. To note, is that the anchors are permenant so if you want, you can buy tapcons and washers to make the railing installation not permanent. We had an issue during the installation where it looked like one of the legs were cut short, but after we called customer service they assisted us very quickly. Super impressed! The wrought iron is good quality and well packaged, but there was some rust inside. I tried to file it down and spray paint it but time will tell how long it will last. I figure at least 5-7years. Overall a very good railing system for the price. Looks fantastic and is solid! and easy to accomplish if you don't have alot of experience. I recommend this product!

A very comprehensive kit supplied with easy to follow instructions

Our insurance provided decided we had to install a railing on our 4 step deck we’ve had for years. This was perfect, really simple to install, it’s sturdy, really happy with it. They include all the extras you would require for any installation as well.

The installation instructions, guides and fixings which are all included are the best I have ever experienced. The product itself now it's fitted, feels good quality and sturdy. Therefore from an average DIYer I'd have no hesitation in recommending this product.

Very sturdy , good looking, nice quality, incredible supply of every imaginable tool to do it yourself. Instructions and videos are great. Only flimsy parts are the plastic caps at bottom of posts, but not a big deal. Thank you, would highly recommend. John
