Why This Installation Shows What CoreMount Does Well

Half-turn staircases can look difficult to plan, especially when the handrail needs to continue around a landing. CoreMount is designed to make this type of installation more straightforward by using manageable rail sections, precision-machined brackets and concealed mechanical connections.

Rather than needing a handrail fabricated on site, the system can be planned in advance and supplied in sections ready for installation.

Designed for Confident DIY Installation

Many CoreMount customers fit their own handrails using normal DIY tools. The system is designed to be practical to install at home, while still giving the appearance and strength of a professionally made handrail.

For more complex staircases, customers can send us photos and measurements before ordering so we can help advise on the best handrail route.
