Construction: Wood handrail will contain some joints and is constructed in layers. This type of construction puts the grain going against each other in order to prevent potential future warping. All wood bends has the potential to bend and when it does it typically bends one single direction which is why virtually all handrail produced will have the construction method similar to ours and aims to prevent wood warping. Also many wood species simply do not come in these extreme lengths. Our handrail gets installed daily in custom and production homes with zero issues and stains beautifully.
