A banister or handrail should be easily reached by a person of average height. Some areas have a specific height requirement: it depends on your local legislation, so check with your local authority. Where there is legislation, it is aimed at ensuring that the recommendation above is achieved.
Some places require a height of 900-1000mm above the nosing of the stairs.
The side on which your banister should go depends on the layout and design of your staircase. Typically, the banister is placed on the right side when ascending, but this can vary based on personal preference or building codes. It's essential to ensure that the banister is installed on the side that provides the best safety and accessibility for users. Additionally, consider the flow of traffic and any obstructions that may influence the placement.

To replace a banister, you will need to remove the old banister by unscrewing it from the staircase and then install the new banister by attaching it securely to the staircase using screws or brackets. Make sure to measure carefully and follow any specific instructions for your particular banister design.
You can repair a banister by first removing or stripping the nails, sanding the area and reapplying a fresh banister.
