Forged railing in the interior
Depending on the style of the house you can choose a railing of a certain design. So, for the Gothic style, the presence of symmetrical patterns, 4-petal rosettes and trefoils is typical. The baroque style is dominated by complex forms, emphasizing the pretentiousness of the interior, so here you can find a combination of abstraction and curls. Those who prefer the traditional style can use rails in the Russian style in which the national floral symbols and ornaments with flowers in the center are displayed. Note that in the Slavic style very often the same patterns are repeated.
Features of the installation
Before the floor is finished with tiles, it is recommended to install special mortars, which then will serve as the basis for the entire construction of the handrail. However, this applies only to those models that are manufactured in a factory / factory. If the welding assembly of the handrail is made directly in the apartment, then it must be done before the repair. Otherwise, there may be marks on the floor and walls on the welding machine. It is also recommended to order railings in special companies that have catalogs with reports, in which you can choose the model to your liking.
