Handrails and guardrails for pools

Pool handrails provide support in areas providing access to the pool, integrated stairs, pool decks, or pool edges.

Before choosing a model, it is advisable to check the dimensions, fastening system, and available space.

Both elements can be used for support, although their shape and application may differ.

A handrail is usually installed next to an access point or staircase, while a guardrail may cover a larger area or form part of an access system.

The terminology may vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific product design.

You should consider the type of pool, location, dimensions, shape, and fastening system.

It is also advisable to check the distance between anchor points and the space available around the access area.

If you are replacing an existing model, compare its measurements with those of the original handrail.

Some handrails are designed to be recessed, while others are secured using mounting plates or bases screwed to the surface.

The appropriate system depends on the model and the characteristics of the surface where it will be installed.

Before buying, check the technical data sheet to find out which anchors and accessories are required.
