A handrail system from a structural steel fabricator
Every platform, walkway, stair and roof we fabricate needs edge protection – and on most projects the handrail is where site time, hot work and galvanizing repairs pile up. WS modular handrail solves that with a standard kit: stanchions, rails and fittings that bolt together with spanners and hex keys, designed to the heights and loads of the US, Australian and European codes.
All components are fabricated in the same certified plant as our structural steel – cut, welded on jigs, galvanized as single pieces and marked by code – so the handrail arrives with the same quality records as the frame it protects. It can be detailed in the same Tekla model and shipped with your structural steel, or ordered on its own for existing plants and buildings.

Advantages
Why modular
01
No site welding
Bolt-together assembly – no hot-work permits, no fire watch, no galvanizing repair on site.
02
Fast to install
Pre-cut rails and factory-set fittings: a crew installs a run with hand tools.
03
Adjustable
Fittings take up corners, slopes and site tolerances that welded rails cannot.
04
Fully galvanized
Every part is galvanized as a single piece – inside and out, with no welded joints left bare.
05
Easy to extend
Add bays, gates or removable sections later with the same standard parts.
06
Code-ready
Heights, rails and toe boards set for OSHA, AS 1657 or EN ISO 14122-3.

Supply options
With your structural steel – or on its own
In the structural steel package. Handrail runs are modelled with the platforms, stairs and mezzanines they protect; stanchion holes and sockets are made in the shop, components are packed with the steel of the same area and arrive in the same containers – one supplier, one programme, one quality dossier.
Ordered separately. For existing plants, roofs and buildings, or to complete steel supplied by others, WS modular handrail is quoted from a layout drawing or site measurements and shipped as a complete kit – or as individual stanchions, fittings and accessories for extensions and spares.
Either way, every component is made by World Steel – nothing is bought in and relabelled.
Quality & durability
Made to last as long as the steel
Components are fabricated under the same ISO 3834-2, AS/NZS 5131 CC3 and EN 1090 EXC3 quality systems as our structural steel: traceable material, qualified welding procedures, jig-built stanchions with repeatable fitting heights, and dimensional inspection before galvanizing.
Hot-dip galvanizing to ASTM A123, AS/NZS 4680 or EN ISO 1461 coats every part inside and out; because the system is bolted, no zinc is burnt off by site welding. For coastal and chemical environments a duplex safety-yellow topcoat extends life and visibility; the coating system is chosen for the corrosivity category of the site.
Fittings are sized so that the joint is never the weak point under the barrier loads of OSHA, AS/NZS 1170.1 or EN 1991-1-1, and stanchion spacing is checked for each project.

FAQ
Questions fréquentes
What is a modular handrail?
A handrail or guardrail assembled from standard stanchions, rails and fittings that bolt together, instead of being welded on site. WS modular handrail is fabricated and galvanized as single components and assembled with hand tools.
Can it be supplied with our structural steel?
Yes – most WS modular handrail ships in the same package as the platforms, stairs and mezzanines it protects, detailed in the same model. It can also be ordered on its own for existing structures.
Which codes does it meet?
Fitting heights, rails and toe boards are set for OSHA 1910.29 in the US, AS 1657 in Australia and EN ISO 14122-3 in Europe; stanchion spacing is checked for the barrier loads of the project.
Is anything bought in from other handrail brands?
No. Stanchions, rails, fittings, gates, toe boards and brackets are fabricated in the World Steel plant; anchors are supplied to suit the fixing surface.
Can we order spare parts or extensions later?
Yes. Every component has a WS code, so extensions, gates, removable bays and spares can be ordered individually.
What finish do you recommend?
Hot-dip galvanizing as standard; a duplex safety-yellow topcoat for coastal, chemical or high-visibility areas; powder coat over galvanizing for architectural areas.
