Recent changes to the building standard has meant that timber handrail on a staircase must now be continuous when fixed to a wall.
This is good news for us, as we have been making these products for a number of years now.
We manufacture and stock a lot of timber products, but one range of products that we don't stock is timber mouldings such as skirtings and architraves.
The reason for this is simple; there are a heap of other companies that do these types of products, and with the prices being squeezed, there really is little profit margin involved.
Late last year one of the stairbuilders that I regular deal with asked me whether I would be interested in making a handrail profile for them.
They told me that they get a bit of a demand for it, but struggle to find anyone locally who was prepared to run it for them.
Timber Architrave blocks are a great way of decorating a door frame, and also are a good way to avoid doing mitre joints if this is a problem.
We manufacture 4 different designs in Pine, all of which are 95mm high x 95mm wide x 22mm thick, which is a perfect size for 90mm wide architrave mouldings.
If timber is not too your liking, and stainless is a little too modern, then you may want to consider our range of high quality black wrought iron balusters for stairs in both square and round designs.
For as long as my memory can stretch back we have been manufacturing the FL021R 90x90 Edwardian style turned dining table leg. This design started its life in the very early 1980`s when a customer dropped into our factory and asked...
HAMMERSMITH manufacturers a range of timber handrails that can be used in domestic and commercial applications. Our wooden hand rails come in a range of shapes and timbers.
Here in Adelaide our local newspaper is The Advertiser. In the Saturday print of the paper they have a section called Silent Achievers which promotes businesses in South Australia that have either been around a long time or are doing something special.
A few years back we had a request from a hardware store in regional South Australia as to whether we could make a 32mm diameter hardwood timber dowel. We said that was easy, but then the customer told us that they needed to all by 4.2 metres in length, which presented us with a bit of a challenge.
