Needed a handrail to assist gtetting up 4 steps from garage to house. It took me a while to figure out the best way to mount these. You do have some felxibility since the parts are all threaded and screw together,. But for someone who doesn't take the time to dry run the installation, you could be frustrated (line make sure the screw holes are still accessible after you put the bar and mounting bracket. Once I did that, install was just about 20 minutes. Great value for the price
