Custom Ramp Handrails for Accessible Entrances | Techno Kol Uzi

t363-15

A custom ramp handrail is a railing made to the exact length, slope and height of your entrance ramp, so it fits the site and supports users safely. Techno Kol Uzi fabricates these handrails in our Tel Aviv workshop after measuring on site and agreeing on a written specification with you.

Why a custom ramp handrail makes sense

Every entrance is different. Ramps vary in length, slope, width and the way they meet the door or the pavement, so a standard railing rarely fits without compromise. A custom ramp handrail is designed around your actual site, which means it sits at a comfortable height, runs smoothly along the full length of the ramp and ends in a way that does not create a trip hazard.

Custom work also lets you match the handrail to the building. Colour, profile and finish can be chosen to suit the facade, the entrance canopy or the surrounding metalwork, so the accessibility upgrade looks like part of the design rather than an afterthought.

What we check before we make it

Good handrails start with good measurements. Our team visits the site, records the ramp length, slope, landings and the wall or post positions, and photographs the surroundings. We then prepare a drawing and a written specification for your approval before any cutting begins.

Handrail height and whether a second, lower rail is needed
Mounting surface: concrete, stone, steel or cladding
Wall clearance and how the rail returns at each end

Exact dimensions and load requirements are confirmed with your engineer, and the Israeli railing standard SI 1142 is taken into account in the planning stage.

Materials and finishes for outdoor entrances

Entrance railings face rain, sun and daily handling, so material choice matters. Steel is strong and works well for most ramps. Aluminum is lighter and does not rust, which suits some sites. Stainless steel is a good option near the coast or where a clean, modern look is wanted.

For steel, we use hot-dip galvanizing as a base protection and powder coating for the final colour. This combination helps the rail resist corrosion and keeps its appearance over time. We will recommend the right finish for your location and the level of wear you expect.

Design details that improve safety and comfort

A well-made ramp handrail is comfortable to grip and easy to follow with the hand. Round or slightly oval profiles are often preferred because they are easy to hold for long periods. The rail should run continuously, with secure fixings and no sharp edges or protruding bolts.

From inquiry to installation

The process is straightforward. Send us photos of the entrance and a short description of what you need. We arrange an on-site measurement, then send a drawing and specification for your approval. Once approved, the handrail is produced in our factory, finished, and installed at your site.

Because we manufacture to measure, we can adjust the plan as the site reveals new conditions. Clear communication at each step helps avoid surprises at installation.

Serving business owners, committees and contractors

Many of our ramp handrail projects come from business owners upgrading a shop or office entrance, building committees responding to residents' needs, and contractors or architects who need reliable fabrication for a larger job. We work with all of them in the same careful way, from the first measurement to the final fixing.

Since 1945, Techno Kol Uzi has been producing metalwork in Tel Aviv, and the same attention to detail applies to every railing we make, whether it is a single ramp or part of a wider entrance package.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a custom ramp handrail take to make?

Timing depends on the size of the project, the finish chosen and our current production schedule. We confirm the timeline in writing once the specification is approved.

Do you measure the site before making the handrail?

Yes. We visit the site to measure the ramp, landings and mounting points, and we use those measurements to prepare the drawing and specification.

Which material is best for an outdoor ramp?

Steel with galvanizing and powder coating is a strong choice for most entrances, while aluminum or stainless steel can suit coastal or low-maintenance sites. We recommend the best option after seeing the location.

Do you handle installation as well?

Yes, the handrail is installed at your site after production and finishing. We discuss the installation plan together with you before work begins.

Common mistakes to avoid

Choosing a standard railing without measuring the actual ramp is a common error, as it often leads to poor height and awkward ends. Skipping the finish choice for an outdoor location can also shorten the life of the rail.

Our recommendation

Measure the ramp slope, length and landings before ordering, and confirm exact heights and fixings with your engineer. Ask for a written specification so you know exactly what is being built.

Summary

A custom ramp handrail, measured and built for your entrance, gives safe support and a clean, durable result. Start with a site measurement and a written specification.
