You're planning to have a bar in your home. You'd like it to be a place to host friends for a cocktail party every now and then but most especially during special occasions. You're thinking about creating an attractive bar with the extra accessories.
You're right, the bar rails are it. If you have observed closely, there's something unique in a bar with foot and hand rails. They're more attractive and functional as well. Other than its aesthetics, it provides comfort and security for people who use the bar. When you install the bar foot rails, people have some place to rest their feet while standing or sitting. With the hand rails, people have something to grab on in case they lose their balance.
Rails For Beds
Once you're decided to add these bar rails, the next step is to do a little research on the materials available. You will have to find out which one will suit your bar at home. You will also have to consider your budget because not all materials are cheap. Each material has its own benefits but then, you have to make sure that what you want is of top quality and suits your personal style.
Wood
If you go for the classic look, wood is the best to use. It goes well with your wood bar. A main advantage is the fact that it's warm to the hands. The downside is it can easily be scratched especially for the bar foot rails where the shoes often rest. For this reason, it is important to apply the necessary protective coating before installation to ensure that your rails are free from scratches for a long time.
Metal
If you go for the modern trend, the stainless steel is a good choice. It is a durable material and one that can well resist corrosions. This can complement whatever type and color of the bar you have. Additionally, the stainless steel rail requires little or no maintenance at all. To maintain its great appearance, you just need to wipe it off with a soft dry cloth every now and then to remove dust and dirt.
Another option is the brass rails. This is what you've seen as having a gold like appearance. Its unique golden glow is its main attraction but if you want to use this material, regular maintenance is necessary. Brass is prone to corrosion and therefore, may need polishing to keep it free from scratches and stains.
Components
Bar rails are made up of several parts. The main component is the tubing or the pole while the other parts include the end caps, brackets, screws and elbows.
The end caps are the covers at the end of the tubing and are available in decorative types. The brackets are what hold the tubing to keep it steady and the screws are what you will need to keep the brackets in place. If you're installing rails with corners, you will need the elbow to connect your tubing from one corner to another.
After you've decided on the material and sizes of your bar rails, you can proceed with placing your order from your preferred hardware or home improvement store.
