I purchased two of these handrails and installed them for a friend that has rheumatoid arthritis. She was in desperate need of railings of any kind, but I chose these because of their quality and ease of installation. She was not expecting anyone to do this, but when I saw the need, I had to do something fast. Winter is on its way and there was no time to waste. Once installed, she couldn’t understand how she got by without them. It was a complete success and I have never installed anything into concrete before this. Like I said, very easy to install, but make sure you have a hammer drill. That was also what made it easy.
