Benefits:

- Aesthetic Finish: Offers a neat and professional appearance, contributing to the overall design of the space.
- Durability: Reduces the risk of damage to the rail ends from daily wear and tear.

- Installation Quality: Ensure returns are securely mounted and properly aligned with the wall to provide a continuous and stable railing system.
- Regular Inspections: Conduct periodic inspections to check for any signs of damage or wear, ensuring that returns remain safe and functional.
