Alexandria Moulding 0W231-20144C1 Hand Rail Moulding Pine

Product Description

The ALEXANDRIA MOULDING INC 0W231-20144C1 is a solid pine hand rail moulding designed for stair and ramp handrail applications. Conforming to the WM231 profile standard, this piece measures 1.5 inches wide by 1.0625 inches thick and runs 12 feet in length. The solid pine construction offers a consistent grain that accepts paint, stain, and clear finishes. Carpenters and finish contractors install this moulding where building codes require a graspable handrail profile along stairways in residential construction.

This hand rail moulding is suited for interior residential stairways, ramps, and similar applications requiring a code-compliant graspable rail. It is sold in packages of 4 pieces, making it practical for staircase runs or multi-flight projects. The WM231 profile is a widely recognized industry-standard pattern used in new construction and remodel work alike. Finish carpenters and general contractors are the typical installers, though experienced DIYers familiar with trim carpentry also work with this product.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by finish carpenters or general contractors in compliance with local building codes and the International Residential Code (IRC) handrail requirements. Power down any adjacent electrical components and secure the work area before cutting or fastening. Use appropriate saw equipment for clean crosscuts and miter joints, and pre-drill near ends to prevent splitting the pine stock. Seal all cut ends before finishing to limit moisture absorption and movement.
