WALL RAILS

We provide wall rails for a wide range of commercial and residential solutions. Our wall handrails service businesses and institutions such as schools, offices, hospitals, aged care facilities, hospitality venues, and homes.

We offer both handrails and crash rails to provide options for whatever your situation calls for. Our handrails are wall-mounted rails designed to provide support and stability in areas like stairways, staircases, hallways, ramps, or bathrooms where extra assistance is needed. Our crash rails act as thick bumper guards installed horizontally along walls to protect against impacts. They are commonly used in hospitals, airports, hotels, industrial facilities, and parking garages where frequent collisions can damage walls. 

Our wall rails offer critical support for the elderly, disabled, or rehabilitating individuals and assist the general population in areas with irregular flooring. 

With many types of wall rails and brackets available, we have a wall rail system for every wall.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wall railing, or wall rail, is a type of rail attached horizontally across a wall. It encompasses handrails for support and stability for our vulnerable community using uneven floorings like ramps, stairs, walkways and crash rails (wall guards and bump rails) to prevent falls and absorb impact. Quality wall railing is generally made from stainless steel, plasterboard, or PVC to ensure durability.

First, measure your rails and the distance between the brackets. Then, determine the height of your rail, ensuring it is at the appropriate height for its usability. Outline the placement of your handrails with markers. Next, securely attach your brackets to the wall using screws, making sure they do not hit any wires or studs behind the wall. At Rootex, we handle the entire installation process, so you don’t need to worry about a thing.

When selecting wall rails to support the elderly, we recommend handrails that are easy to grip and feature antibacterial properties to ensure our elderly folks are safe from both falls and sickness, providing a secure and hygienic solution for our elderly community. 

There are various names for wall rails, as their design and purpose can vary depending on their function, placement, and historical use. Some of the most common types include dado rail, picture rail, chair rail, handrail, wall crash rail, bump rail, and crown moulding. Each type serves a unique purpose, whether for protection, decoration, or functionality.

How Rootex Wall Rails Help Your Business

  1. To help with balance and stability

The elderly, young children and the vulnerable need wall rails in everyday life. Some people like to have the rail to graze their hand on for extra balance and stability, especially if suffering from conditions such as vertigo or dizziness. Our wall rails are designed for an easy grip and come in a wide range of styles and colours to perfectly suit your space and meet the needs of your community.

  1. To prevent falls on surfaces with irregularities

Decks and ledges need a barrier between the edge and a steep drop. This is important to consider when working with heights or surfaces with an irregular walking area if your area is open to wet weather or is a wet zone – a rail system is a necessary precaution to prevent mishaps. Our handrails, made from durable PVC, are not only hard-wearing but also offer the added benefits of being antibacterial and fire-rated, ensuring they meet both your interior and exterior safety needs.

  1. To help with carrying heavy content

Content that is a strange shape or a heavy load can be difficult to carry, and having a rail to rest or help manage the load becomes helpful. A rail installed in a thoroughfare, especially when manual labour is commonplace – will soon become an essential addition.

We have many types of products available to suit your rail needs and provide an installation that you can count on to make a difference in the safety and security of your household or business. Our friendly and experienced team can work with you to find the best product for your space, from small sections of railing needed for stairs in the family home to a large rail system to suit long-range corridors and walls.

We have a rail for every need and can provide full support from consultation to installation. You can rest assured with further peace of mind, knowing your family, customers or clients will be kept safe without sacrificing style or cohesion.
