Over recent times, we have been contacted and visited by many ‘mature aged’ customers who explain their need for a handrail or handrails for safety reasons and their desire for them to be elegant, stylish and in the colour of choice.
Let’s face it, ‘standard’ handrails available on the market are rather unattractive & bulky - whilst they are there for a very good reason, they can cause a homeowner to be dissatisfied with the look of them, particularly if they’re needed at the front of the home.
Standard handrails are generally only available in basic colours. Our powder coat range offers most COLOURBOND® steel colours & some Dulux® colours, or we find many customers choose the more traditional black but it is nice to have a range of colours to choose from if required.
Recent customers have included downsizers who have moved to more manageable sized units rather than staying in their large homes - they’re often new builds which don’t include any handrails to the front, back or laundry doors.
This provides the perfect opportunity to enhance & individualise the front entrance to their new home rather than have a standard unattractive clunky handrail - handrails can be made in many designs and styles (classic & modern) we have many stylish options that can be tailored to your own individual taste.
Our wrought iron handrails ensure our customers are confident to get up and down their steps safely. Our handrails are strong, long lasting, easy to maintain & create the safety aspect our customers are seeking. After installations we are often contacted by nearby residents who are impressed & envious of their neighbour’s new wrought iron handrail, they then decide they’d like to have the same or similar.
Not all our customers wish to leave their home when all they need is a few safety items installed to enable them to stay home & move around safely.
Requests for something a little out of the ordinary & specific to customers needs is where Eastern Suburbs Wrought Iron excel - we can make anything, our customers come up with some clever ideas that we’ve been able to help with, such as the following: -
- We attached a handrail to the full side of a home for our customer to enable him to move along his driveway safely….
- A handrail for steps in the garden - as well as the safety aspect, we think it enhanced the look of the steps….
- Another clever idea was where our customer’s sliding door lead out to her deck area, but there was nothing for her to hang on to, she wasn’t venturing out as much as she wanted to because she just didn’t feel steady enough going it alone. She rang and asked if we could make & install a handrail for her to grab hold of as soon as she stepped out of the sliding doorway. We were able to make & install a handrail to the base of her deck thus allowing her the freedom to be outside & enjoy her garden….
The above solutions are just a snapshot of what we can do. These applications are specific & unique to each site & require our experience, expertise & specialist knowledge to ensure they’re fitted with our best installation practices. Please click here to view our range.
