OVER-THE-POST (OTP) -
is when a handrail system has a continuous rail
that is set on top of the newel posts. This
allows the hand to stay in direct contact with
the handrail from the first step straight through
to the ending of either the staircase or balcony
(if applicable). Good for additional assistance
when climbing stairs as your hand never has
to leave the handrail to pick up the next section.
Transitions between carriage and landing or
carriage and balcony are treated with a gooseneck
application. |
