Staircase Ideas and Details
If you order your new staircase with continuous handrail you have the option of have it pre-cut and jointed at the point of manufacture, whatever sort of handrail and newel posts you plan having on your staircase it is more benificial for you to have the items pre-fitted at the time of manufacture.
This shows a opening Cap detail where the handrail starts and a Goose Neck detail at the top of the run.

When Newel posts and handrails are fitted to the staircase at the point of manufacture the quality is far superior than what can be fitted on site and the saving in the installation time is days not hours.
