Frequently Asked Questions

Can you stain Connecta Rail?

We sure can for large commercial orders that meet the minimum order quantity. We offer four lovely colours to enhance the look of your interior. Select from our beautiful range of Teak, Walnut, Maple and Black. Ask our team when you make your enquiry if your quantity is sufficient for custom staining.

What size handrails are available?

The Intrim Connecta Rail System uses round timber handrails also known as a dowel handrail. You have the choice of
  • ConnectaRail40 - which uses a 40mm diametre handrail or
  • ConnectaRail50 - which uses a 50mm diamtre handrail
The handrail comes in mixed random lengths.

Do I need to use an Intrim chair rail to fix the handrail brackets or is the fixing to plasterboard sufficient?

Fixing the Intrim ConnectaRail Handrail brackets to the plasterboard is sufficient if there are noggins placed in the wall at the correct height for bracket fixing prior to plasterboard. We recommend the use of an Intrim Chair Rail for added support along the length of the wall to affix the brackets to if noggins are not in the correct positions to provide the structural support.

Can you assist with helping get the right quantities for a project?

We can provide assistance to customers should you have questions on how to measure for your project. We recommend double checking with a builder before placing any orders. Depending on the project and your installer will vary on the amount of wastage. Ensure you confirm your quantities with your installer before placing your order.
