VIVOSUN Outdoor Handrail, 3 Step Stair Handrail, 40" x 36" Fits 1 to 3 Steps, Wrought Mattle Iron Handrail for Concrete Steps, Porch Steps, One-Step Assembly, Black

These wrought matte iron handrails were exactly what we needed to comply with FHA guidelines, and they turned out looking great. The finish is sleek and modern, and the rails feel very sturdy once installed. They not only met the safety requirement but also added a nice visual upgrade to the space. Solid quality and a professional look at a good price. If you are not handy, you may want someone to help install. They will be loose without proper installation. Screw hardware came included. We used them on stairs coming into the house from the garage.

Very sturdy and looks great. Instructions were easy to follow and it was so easy to assemble. Thinking about getting another one to use as guard rail. I would definitely recommend this product.

I liked that it was easy to assemble but not so easy to install in concrete. The concrete lag bolts were very cheap. No drill bit size was given to drill into concrete. I had to go online to find that out. Even with the correct hole size the lag bolts had to be hammered into the drilled hole and it would bend or dis form the threaded bolt. There was no mention of how deep to drill the holes and very difficult to remove from hole once installed if not deep enough. I would still buy one again but would go to a hardware store and purchase a 3/8” redhead lag bolt and also the lag bolt install tool so as not to deform threaded portion of the lag bolt. When you buy a redhead lag bolt the drill bit size for the hole and its depth is shown on packaging.Also the rail is a painted rail and not powder coated. It scratches very easily. Ours tipped over on to concrete while installing and got severely scratched. We used a black touch up paint marker to cover up the scratches. It looked nice and felt sturdy once installed.

Bought the handrail for my 90 year old mother's steps going to the garage. They it looks nice and works very well and was easy to install. I did not use the plastic anchors since I was drilling into bricks, I used the Tapcon screws that do not require the plastic anchors. I liked the handrail well enough that I have ordered another one for another set of steps at her house. It appears to be good quality and it is very surdy.

My porch railing needed replacement and my local home repair store was so expensive for this type of item. I took a chance and purchased this railing from Amazon. It turned out to be perfect. Easy to install and very sturdy.I'm glad I bought it

UPDATE IN MAY - BOUGHT 2 MORE VIVOSUN 5' RAILINGS AND INSTALLED THEM IN LESS THAN AN HOUR (82-year old female with tools provided and my own electric drill). FIRST 3 REVIEWED BELOW WERE IN APRIL 2025. ALL LEGS SCREWED INTO WOOD DECKING, NOT CONCRETE. WITH 4 SCREWS IN WOOD IN EACH LEG, THEY ARE VERY STURDY. THERE IS A SLIGHT SIDEWAYS WOBBLE, BUT NOT ANYTHING TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT. RECOMMEND VIVOSUN RAILINGS. --- April 2025- Bought 3 of these Vivosun rails in different lengths to surround my husband's outside ramps. They are sturdy, and easy to assemble (although I forgot to put the caps over the "feet" before I screwed the first one down). They came via USPS (not UPS), so had to make a special trip into town to the post office to get them. There were some scratches on a couple of the rails, but nothing major that I can't touch up with black matte paint. I do have 2 things to mention and hope the person who monitors the Amazon description notes: (1) there is no mention of the size of the top hand rail (i.e., 1"x2") because I wanted to screw one end to the outside wall for more side strength, but couldn't order the wall attachment hardware until I knew what the size of the rails were; and (2) there is no mention of the "overhang" of the top rail when it is attached to the legs. This also would have helped in deciding where to screw in the legs to the deck because I am using 2 sections on one side of the ramp for stability. I bought a 4-step section, and a 2-step section, so there are a total of 4 legs screwed down to the wooden deck on one side of the ramp. The 3rd rails (a 3-step section) will go on the other side of the ramp (shorter because of a screen door opening). I didn't think one long section would be as sturdy as 2 shorter sections with more legs screwed down. Possibly, if I had concrete, it would be been better, but my application only has a wooden deck. All hardware included for wood or concrete, as well as Allen wrenches. No drill bits, though, for screwing the legs down.

I wanted to really like this product but it falls a bit short of great. All the pieces seem well made and it was easy to assemble and attach to my outside wall. The base plate and the rail are hefty and appear sturdy, but once attached, it is not as stable as I would like (or as other similar items have been). The metal base plate is firmly attached to the wall, but the two bolts that attach the rail to the base plate are fairly short, and even when tightened, they do not hold the body of the rail firmly. It waggles to and fro a bit, which is disappointing. It is still useful and I will apply this by some utility room steps that I use, but are rarely used by others. I would not want others to feel unsafe when it moves a bit when they grip the rail.

Ok, but would be easier to assemble and install if there were 2 people.(depending on age and health). Wish it was sturdier.
