Building codes in most places require stair banisters to be installed for safety reasons, so not having them could be against regulations and subject to penalties or fines. Additionally, not having stair banisters poses a safety risk for individuals using the stairs, especially for the elderly or those with mobility issues. It is generally recommended to have stair banisters installed to ensure the safety of occupants.
