Up grade to my Silverback 33IK #3

[Gene85222]

There were no hand rails going up to the bedroom in my 2015 Silverback 33IK and my wife was having a hard time going up with her bad knees. I looked around the internet but could not find anything I liked. So I made my own. There are aluminum studs in the wall so I had some good attachment points. I don't know why CC does not include these rails.

Looks beautiful, but I have to ask why two?

DDC You would have to ask............
The bottom one I made and installed, then I found that it was set too low at 29". So............. to keep from leaving holes in the wall and I had the material to make a second one ---- back to the shop. The top one is set at 35". 34" to 38" is hand rail code. I should have looked up the code before installing the first one. What do you think, does it look OK????

I was wondering why two also....

I think I would have made some type of wooden plate/cover to cover the first set of holes and use to install second version at necessary height

Just tell people you made it to help the kids out from falling. They will all think you are a smart guy and youll be more happy about it
