Chrome Stair Parts

Chrome is a plated metal where a thin layer of chromium is applied to the surface of the metal. This addition helps prevent corrosion and provides a highly reflective surface. Some of the other benefits of chrome include:

• Attractive reflective finish
• Ideal for modern and contemporary staircases
• Offers a sleek and refined look

Benefits of Using Chrome Handrail Brackets

Chrome handrail brackets are perfect for anyone wishing to create a modern look for their staircase. Their reflective and sleek appearance will make for a glossy but subtle feature that is available in a variety of styles. As a result, you can pick out the right fit for your staircase design with ease.

Before selecting a chrome handrail bracket, it’s important to keep your existing staircase in mind so that you can attempt to match its aesthetic. The style that you opt for, should be at the centre of your decision. It’s also important to consider whether you want to choose a simple chrome handrail bracket or one with pops of elegant and decorative design. Price is another factor to consider when choosing your chrome handrail bracket. If you’re working to a budget, make sure to check this before you decide on a specific handrail bracket.

When choosing your chrome handrail bracket, you can opt for either a simple style or a decorative, detailed finish. Let's take a look in more detail below:

• Simple styles - Sometimes, less is more when it comes to staircase designs. If you are looking for something understated, take a look at our Fusion handrail bracket. The Fusion range of chrome products come with a shiny finish and are ideal for making a simple, minimalistic statement.
• Decorative features - If you prefer designs with a more intricate finish, take a look at our chrome octagonal wall bracket. For added brilliance, why not complement your bracket with our matching octagonal handrail caps.

First things first, let’s clear up a common misconception surrounding wood and chrome. Many believe that chrome handrail brackets are hard to pair with wood however, this is simply not the case. Chrome is a versatile material that can be paired with all types and shades of wood. At Jackson Woodturners, we recommend that you pair your chrome handrail brackets with a paler wood, ideally oak or pine.
