Bar foot rails add comfort, style, and durability to home and commercial bars by giving guests a stable footrest and protecting the bar face from scuffs. This hardware category includes complete bar foot rail kits and individual bar rail components designed for quick, clean installs and long-lasting performance.

Common materials include polished brass, brushed stainless steel, oil-rubbed bronze, and matte black powder coat to match any décor and resist corrosion. Standard tube diameters are 1.5 inch and 2 inch, with matching brackets, end caps, elbows (90° and 135°), and splices to handle straight runs and corners. Choose wall-mount, bar-mount, or floor-mount brackets based on bar construction and traffic.

Selection tips:
- Measure the full run and count corners; add 10% for cuts and fitment.
- Pick a finish that complements fixtures and is appropriate for indoor or outdoor use.
- For heavy traffic, select stainless steel or solid brass and robust brackets spaced 3–4 feet apart.

Installation guidance:
- Typical top-of-rail height is 6–7 inches from the finished floor, with 3–5 inches clearance from the bar face.
- Anchor into studs or concrete with the correct fasteners; use flanges with set screws for precise alignment.
- Dry-fit components, mark bracket holes, cut tubing with a tubing cutter or metal-cutting saw, and deburr before assembly.
- Level as you go, then tighten set screws with threadlocker to prevent loosening.

Maintenance is simple: wipe with a non-abrasive cleaner; polish brass as needed; avoid harsh chemicals on coated finishes. For wet areas, choose stainless steel to prevent tarnish.
