We understand that stairs are a focal point in any home, so quality matters. Browse our collection to find the perfect profile and wood species for your requirements.
Oak and Pine Baserails for Every Budget
When selecting a timber base rail, wood species makes a real difference to both appearance and longevity. Oak baserail brings warmth and character to traditional and modern interiors alike, with natural grain patterns that enhance any décor. Pine baserail offers a cost-effective alternative without compromising on quality, making it ideal for projects where value is important. Both options can be stained, varnished, or painted to match your existing joinery. Our stair baserail UK selection has been chosen to provide flexibility and choice, whether you're specifying for a single domestic staircase or a larger commercial project. Each timber type is graded consistently to ensure reliable quality on site.
Installing a wooden baserail requires accurate measurement and secure fixing to ensure longevity and safety. Most baserails are fitted horizontally along the base of your staircase wall, typically at a height of 800–900 mm from the floor. Proper preparation is key: ensure walls are clean, dry, and plumb before fixing. We recommend using suitable fixings and adhesive for your specific wall type, whether plasterboard, brick, or stone. Once installed, your baserail can be finished to match your staircase spindles and newel posts. Sanding, staining, and sealing create a durable, attractive surface that withstands everyday wear. If you're unsure about any aspect, our team is here to help with practical advice.
