Schedule a Stair Railing Site Survey with Our Team
t325-45

A stair railing site survey is an on-site visit where our team measures your staircase, checks the wall and floor conditions and records the details needed for a custom railing. Once the survey is done you receive a drawing and written specification to approve before we manufacture in our Tel Aviv factory.
What a Stair Railing Site Survey Covers
A site survey is the step that turns a photo or a rough idea into a railing that fits your staircase exactly. During the visit we measure the stair run, the landing, the height of the handrail and the spacing of the balusters. We also check how the railing will be fixed, whether into concrete, stone, tile or a steel stringer.
- Exact lengths and angles of each flight and landing
- Wall, floor and fixing conditions
- Preferred finish, infill style and handrail profile
Everything we record goes into the drawing you approve.
Who Should Request a Survey
Our surveys serve private homeowners planning a new or replacement railing, building committees responsible for shared staircases, contractors who need a reliable manufacturer on a project, and architects or interior designers who want their details checked against real conditions. If you have a staircase that is changing shape, age or use, a survey is the safest starting point.
Contractors often schedule the visit before the finishing trades start, so that anchors and openings can be prepared in time.
How the Visit Works Step by Step
The visit usually takes a short time on site. Our team arrives, walks the staircase with you, takes measurements and photographs, and notes any obstacles such as uneven treads or existing fixings. You can ask questions while we work so you understand the options before we leave.
After the visit we prepare a drawing with dimensions and a written specification. We send it to you for approval before any material is cut.
Preparing for Your Survey
A little preparation makes the visit faster. Clear access to the staircase, make sure the area is safe to walk, and have any existing plans or photos ready. If you have a preferred design, bring a picture or a sketch. Tell us whether the railing is for inside or outside, since that affects the finish we recommend.
- Clear access along the full stair run
- Photos of the current railing if one exists
- Any architect or engineer drawings you have
From Survey to Installed Railing
Once you approve the drawing, we manufacture the railing in our Tel Aviv factory, which has served clients since 1945 and is run today by the third generation of the family. Depending on the design, the work may include hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating before delivery and installation. We keep you updated at each stage so there are no surprises on site.
Safety and Standards Check
A railing has to be both comfortable to hold and safe to rely on. The Israeli railing standard SI 1142 sets the general requirements, and we use it as a reference during design. Exact dimensions for height, baluster spacing and load are confirmed with your engineer, so please share any structural details you have when you book.
We design each railing around the actual staircase rather than a generic template.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a charge for the site survey?
Please contact our office directly to ask about the survey arrangement for your project. Our team will confirm the details when you book.
How long does a stair railing site survey take?
The visit length depends on the number of flights and landings. Our team will give you an estimate when you schedule the appointment.
Do I need to be home during the survey?
It is helpful to be present or to arrange access for our team. If you are a contractor, the site manager can usually coordinate the visit for you.
What do I receive after the survey?
You receive a drawing with dimensions and a written specification. We manufacture only after you approve them.
Common mistakes to avoid
Many people measure a staircase themselves and order before confirming fixing conditions, which leads to railings that do not fit. Skipping the on-site check for wall or floor condition also causes costly changes later.
Our recommendation
Book the survey before you choose a final finish, and share any engineer drawings so the design reflects both the look you want and the requirements that apply to your staircase.
Summary
A stair railing site survey gives you exact measurements, a checked drawing and a clear specification before production begins.
