Top Newel Cap or Handrail Landing Connector
If your balustrade ends at the top of the stairs,
then you can finish off the newel with our
Newel Cap.
However if you have balustrade coming
off the top newel, typically at a 90
o
angle
(for return landings please see instructions
below), then you can use our Landing
Handrail Connector.
To install the Landing Handrail Connector
simply slide it onto the top newel and secure
using the 30mm screw provided, making sure
you have lined it up with your landing baserail.
It is now ready for you to insert the handrail
and secure using the two 30mm screws
provided (fig. 16).
The handrail can terminate to either a wall
connector, or to another newel to handrail connector where there is a second flight of
stairs.
90° Elbow for Return
Landings
Please Note;
When using a combination of the
90
o
Elbow and the Landing Handrail
Connector to form a return landing, the
minimum distance you can achieve is
160mm from the centre of the staircase
baserail to the centre of the landing
baserail.
If you have a return landing, then our 90
o
Elbow can be used to achieve
this, in conjunction with a Landing Handrail Connector slide your handrails into the elbow
from either side and check that the handrails pass the screw holes, pre drill and secure
the handrails using the two screws supplied (fig. 17).
