This House of Forgings 6010 bendable handrail is 18 feet long for curved staircase or balcony installations. It follows industry-standard profiles and ships via heavy freight.

Key specs:

  • Material: Wood construction with 7-10 vertical slices for flexibility; available in multiple species.
  • Dimensions: 18 FT length; standard 6010-B profile (2-1/4″ wide by 2-3/8″ high for graspability when bent).
  • Code compliance: Meets International Residential Code (IRC) standards for graspable handrail profiles in residential stairs.
  • Design: Bendable profile for curves; unfinished and ready to stain, free of knots and defects.

Usage Tips: Although ready to stain, inspect for handling marks or smudges and lightly sand with 220-grit or finer paper, then wipe clean with a tack cloth before applying stain to ensure even absorption.

Construction: Handrail construction includes joints and layered sections with grains oriented against each other to counteract natural bending tendencies. Wood typically warps in one direction, so this method, common across the industry, minimizes potential issues. In addition, many species aren’t available in long single pieces and the only method to construct the handrail is with multiple layers. Also note that wood is an organic product with natural variances in shade or texture, which are inherent features rather than defects. We install and stain these same products daily with no issues.

Availability and lead times:

  • Red oak: Stocked and ready for immediate shipping.
  • All other species (custom options): Made to order in an Amish woodmill with 2-3 weeks production time plus shipping; no returns or exchanges on customs.

Shipping: This can only ship heavy freight due to the length. Anything over 8 ft can not ship ground. Contact us for more info.

3 reviews for 6010 Bendable Wooden Handrail – 18 FT Long

  1. Sheldon Pruitt –

    Our stair builder specifically recommended getting this 18-foot length to ensure the main curve of our handrail was a single, flawless piece.

  2. Myra Hawkins –

    Bending and installing an 18-foot handrail is a serious undertaking! It definitely took a team effort to manage the long plies on our bending form and get it clamped up.

  3. Irving Gentry –

    For our new build, we designed a feature staircase with a very long, flowing curve. This 18-foot Red Oak bending rail was essential to achieve that uninterrupted architectural statement.

Wood is a natural material and can exhibit slight dimensional variances due to fluctuations in moisture content and weather exposure. Additionally, the cutting tools used to manufacture the handrails may experience minor wear over time. These factors can occasionally lead to slight inconsistencies when fitting the handrail and fittings together. This is an industry-standard characteristic of wood. Typically, wood glue and mounting hardware are used to join the handrail and fitting, and this seam is sanded smooth. In cases where minor fitting adjustments are needed, the sanding process blends the pieces seamlessly, usually without adding significant time or complexity.
