Wall Mount Handrail Brackets

Handrail brackets are critical safety hardware used to securely mount a wood handrail to a wall, providing a stable and graspable support along a staircase. These are not merely decorative items; their primary function is to anchor the handrail firmly to the wall’s internal framing (studs), ensuring it can support significant weight. Our brackets are designed to comply with key residential building code requirements, such as providing adequate clearance—typically 1-1/2 inches—between the handrail and the wall for a secure grip. They are constructed from high-strength materials like cast zinc or steel to guarantee a durable and reliable installation.

We offer a selection of handrail brackets in various styles and popular finishes, allowing you to match the hardware to your handrail profile and home decor. For a safe installation, it is essential that the brackets are mounted directly into wall studs using the appropriate fasteners. Building codes typically require a bracket at the top and bottom of the staircase, with intermediate brackets spaced no more than 48 inches apart. We stock these essential, code-compliant brackets to ensure you can complete your wall rail installation safely and correctly. All our high-quality hardware is competitively priced and ready for fast shipping.
