A rosette is a decorative wall plate where a handrail terminates into a wall. It serves both aesthetic and structural functions, adding a polished finish while providing support and anchoring for the handrail.
Benefits:
- Aesthetic Appeal: Adds a decorative element to handrail installations, improving the overall appearance of staircases and hallways.
- Structural Support: Helps to secure the handrail to the wall, ensuring stability and safety.
- Ease of Installation: Simplifies the termination of handrails, making the installation process more straightforward.
Why are rosettes important?
Rosettes increase the appearance of handrail installations and provide important support to secure the handrail to the wall.
OSHA Compliance for Rosettes:
- Design and Installation: Ensure rosettes are designed and installed to securely anchor the handrail, meeting structural support requirements.
- Regular Inspections: Check rosettes regularly for signs of wear or damage to maintain handrail stability and safety.
