Bespoke Balustrades
From the pin straight to the sweepingly curved, the simple to the spectacular, our bespoke balustrades can transform any staircase.
Here at Handrail Creations, we’re famous for our bespoke timber handrails – each one is custom made from the finest materials, and are often very complex in design. But what about the space that sits between the staircase and the handrail? This is where the balustrade sits; the collective name for spindles (or balusters), handrail and newel posts. We work with the finest architectural metalworkers in the UK – along with our in-house joinery and fabrication specialists – to produce stunning contemporary and traditional metal and wooden balustrades.
Bespoke is our standard
From ideation to installation, Handrail Creations works with you to provide a completely bespoke service. As part of our offering, we are often asked to supply and install steel, wrought iron or wooden bespoke balustrades. We may be experts in traditional craft, but that doesn’t mean we don’t utilise modern technology to produce exceptional pieces. Our carefully refined process uses state-of-the-art CNC machinery and CAD/CAM software to deliver even the most complex of designs with pinpoint precision.
What is a balustrade?
Often called a bannister, the balustrade is the collective name for spindles (or balusters), handrail and newel posts. Therefore designs can vary hugely, from single round spindles like our Old Church Street project, to welded designs like our Gordon Avenue project or traditional timber spindles like our Ravenscourt project. All of our balustrade packages include a continuous timber handrail which are custom made with our 5 axis CNC machines.
Why work with Handrail Creations?
Our team – made up of more than 20 full-time staff and a skilled team of contractors – is incredibly passionate about their craft, and that passion is evident with every project we undertake. Our dedication to quality at each stage of design and production – alongside our capacity to fulfil each order under a single roof – has helped us become the forward-thinking company it is today.
As true market leaders, our unique bespoke balustrade design and installation service sets us apart from the competition, with our years of experience allowing us to provide the following:
- Pioneering use of 3D surveys, product design software and 5-axis CNC machinery for a modern approach to a traditional industry.
- A full digital measuring service – where we come to you.
- The purpose-built 5-axis CNC machining capabilities allow the craft of almost any rail shape and size.
- Precision-made components ready for site assembly.
- Unique jointing systems to allow parts to be assembled simply on-site, minimising on-site fitting time.
- No steel core rail or site welding required.
- Antique bronze and brass metal finishes.

As we are able to offer a full balustrade and handrail package, we can design, make and pre-finish the entire balustrade before we get to the site. Our lead time for our balustrade packages is only a few weeks from the survey, which includes painting or powder coating the staircase spindles so that you can enjoy your home’s new centrepiece in no time at all.
