Clips™ Ribbon-shaped Railings

Turn the stair into an architectural feature with Clips™, a ribbon-shaped railing system created primarily for concrete stairs in new-build and renovation projects. A purpose-developed hollow steel section is precision-formed into a continuous ribbon, bringing clarity and character to even the most functional staircase. With digital configuration, smart manufacturing and engineered components, architects gain design freedom while contractors gain control over cost, coordination and delivery.

How Clips™ Works

One continuous hollow-steel ribbon shapes both balusters and handrail, giving Clips™ its distinctive rhythm. The Balustrade Connector fixes the railing to the stair structure; the Handrail Connector makes the transition between balustrade and handrail. For a separate wall-mounted handrail, the Wall Handrail Connector creates the dedicated wall connection. A precision-engineered polymer insert enables secure click-together assembly, and cast fixing components add strength and consistency.

From first dimensions to a production-ready package, the online configurator keeps the process in one place. Enter the stair geometry, balustrade requirements and finish to receive:

Where to Use Clips™

Designed primarily for concrete stairs, Clips™ moves easily between residential, commercial, public and industrial settings, from new construction to refurbishment. It can also be engineered for other suitable stair structures. The result is a stronger architectural identity without introducing avoidable complexity into the build.

Specification

Specification begins with the information already central to the stair: dimensions, floor heights, risers and treads, balustrade height, angle, layout and finish. Enter these in the Clips™ configurator to generate estimated pricing, detailed drawings, a BIM model, an anchor plan and an expected lead time. EeStairs reviews the order before releasing it to production, adding a final engineering check to the digital workflow.

Colours

Let the railing recede into the architecture or use it to set the tone. Clips™ is available in the full range of classic RAL powder-coat colours and selected stainless-steel finishes, including bead-blasted stainless steel. Five curated colour worlds—Colour Pops, Heritage Hues, Industrial Brutalism, Natural Greens and Dimensional Neutrals—offer a more immediate route from material palette to design direction.

Technical Details

Precision Made

Accuracy is built into every part of Clips™. Its purpose-developed hollow steel section is precision-formed into the signature ribbon geometry, while dedicated connectors create consistent, repeatable joints. Production takes place on a specialist line at EeStairs in Barneveld, where cutting, precision bending and bead blasting come together in a fast, controlled, on-demand process.

Installation

On site, preparation does the heavy lifting. The anchor plan sets out the fixing positions in advance, so experienced contractors can prepare the stair structure accurately. The Balustrade Connector fixes the railing to the stair; the Handrail Connector links balustrade and handrail; and, where required, the Wall Handrail Connector supports a separate wall-mounted handrail. Pre-finished components and secure, engineered connections keep adjustments to a minimum and help installation move quickly and cost-effectively.
