Handrail Installers Masterclass from Haldane UK

Haldane UK has shown why it is the marketing leader for luxury timber handrails with a masterclass in handrail installation by installing and polishing over 400 linear metres in just four days.

Working with a leading metalworker on a major college project in London, Haldane UK, was presented with an incredibly challenging deadline for machining and installing the 50mm diameter handrails in European Oak to 5 staircases and four large atrium areas.

However, with over 30 years of experience and successfully completed over 10,000 handrail installation projects, Haldane UK were able to develop a rapid install programme to meet the deadlines.

After carrying out full 3D scanning of the installed glass balustrade, Haldane was able to manufacture, dry joint and pre-finish the European Oak handrail off-site to minimise the installation period.

And thanks to Haldane being one of the few handrail manufacturers with their own in-house teams of highly experienced Handrail Installers, the project was finished in just four days onsite.

Haldane UK’s Managing Director, Forrester Adam, explained, “We know the timber handrails are always one of the last elements to reach site to minimise potential damage. However, slippages in the programme are almost inevitable. With virtually no movement on deadlines, we often find ourselves in the position where we need to install a large volume of handrails in incredibly short periods of time.”

He continued, “Depending on the type of project and the complexity of the handrail profile, transitions and finish, not to mention availability, we can often complete significant elements of the installation offsite. However, one of our main secret weapons is our in-house installation teams that take enormous pride in exceeding expectations in virtually every project.”
