Handle/Rail Questions.

At Bunnings this morning.

I have used these handles on large steel doors.

But was wondering if they would suffice as a vertical hand hold for someone stepping up through a doorway?

Or should I be looking in the bathroom section - Aisle 64?

 

Cheers.

Re: Handle/Rail Questions.

Hi @Noyade,

 

Assuming you are looking at the Goliath T25 x 335mm Stainless Steel Grab Handle, then as long as you mount them to the framing using suitably strong fixings, I can't see any issue using them as a vertical handhold.

 

Do you know what sort of framing you've got around the door?

 

I'd say a couple of 50mm timber screws should do the trick, assuming you have a timber-framed home.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

Jacob
