Any suggestions for contemporary stair railing?

6 years ago

We have a straight 9' section at the top of our stairs we need to put a railing on. This will be a showpiece on our main floor and we don't want traditional colonial style wood railings and are looking for ideas. We thought of a horizontal stainless steel design, but are worried kids would try climbing it. we're not sure that we want a cable system and we haven't fallen in love with glass. Look forward to your suggestions!

Hey there! Here's a few contemporary stair rails we've recently done to give you some ideas. Let us know if you have any specific questions on them. We always understand the concern with horizontal railings, but it is possible to still have a clean, modern look with vertical!

We've also included a picture of a blackened cable railing! What are your hesitations on cable rail?

It's under construction at the moment, so you'll have to imagine what it's going to look like. Flooring will be white wood look tile and the hall will be carpeting to match the stairs. The 14 light chandelier will be hanging centered over the stair opening. The walls will be painted light grey to match the hall walls. From the front door (entry is red) you will be able to see the railing.
