As everyone in the trade already knows, Arcways has been building stairs for a very long time – nearly 60 years. One thing that’s always distinguished an Arcways stair from others is the way we’ve crafted our custom handrails. We embraced robotic capability about 20 years ago to allow us to carve complex, fluid handrails. These rails provide a spectacular finishing touch:
Now Available To The Trade: Custom Carved Handrails



New Capabilities!
We’ve now taken our capabilities up a notch with multi-axis robotic carving. The limitations of a CNC router have been eliminated by using a robot with end ball cutters and a long z-axis. We’re now able to supply other stair companies and millworker houses with the perfect handrail for their complex stairs.
Here are the advantages:
- Unlimited rail profiles.
- Fewer rail parts overall and longer rail parts.
- Minimal glue lines.
- Complex pitch changes and curves.
- The easiest rail installation you’ve ever had.
