Untreated Sawdust - A Practical Choice for Stables, Gardens & More...

When you're looking for an affordable, versatile and natural product for your property, untreated sawdust can be surprisingly useful.

What Makes Untreated Sawdust Useful?

Sawdust is a natural timber product that can be put to work in many different ways around the home, farm, stable or garden.

External Treated Handrails: Durable Timber Handrails Made in New Zealand

When it comes to outdoor stairs, decks, ramps and accessways, choosing the right handrail is about more than appearance. An external handrail needs to provide a comfortable, reliable grip while also standing up to New Zealand's changing weather conditions.

At Dominion Handle & Dowel, we manufacture quality timber handrails in New Zealand, including treated Radiata Pine handrails suitable for external applications. With decades of experience in timber manufacturing, we combine practical expertise with quality materials and precision craftsmanship.

Why Choose Treated Timber for External Handrails?

Outdoor timber is exposed to moisture, sunlight and changing temperatures, so selecting an appropriate timber is important for achieving a long-lasting result.

Treated Radiata Pine is a versatile choice for external handrails. Radiata Pine accepts preservatives well and is relatively easy to machine, making it an excellent timber for producing smooth, attractive handrails.

Our handrails are sand-finished, giving you a smooth surface ready for installation and your preferred finishing treatment.

Depending on the project, a suitable exterior coating or finish can then be applied to provide additional protection and achieve the desired appearance.

Ideal for Outdoor Projects

Treated timber handrails can be used across a wide range of residential, commercial and construction applications, including:

Decks and balconies

Outdoor stairs

Garden steps

Ramps and accessways

Walkways

Porches and entrances

Landscaping projects

Commercial and public spaces

DIY and renovation projects

A well-designed handrail not only improves safety and accessibility but can also add a natural, timeless look to an outdoor space.

Quality NZ-Made Handrails

Dominion Handle & Dowel is a New Zealand handrail manufacturer, producing handrails from quality NZ Radiata Pine as well as a selection of hardwoods.

Radiata Pine handrails are manufactured in a range of sizes, with diameters 40mm, 45mm and 50mm. Kwila handrail diameters in 40mm and 45mm.

We can also work with a variety of timber types, and customers with their own hardwood timber may be able to have it processed by our team, subject to our terms and conditions.

Being locally manufactured means we understand the requirements of New Zealand customers and can provide practical timber solutions for a wide range of projects.

Smooth, Comfortable and Ready to Finish

A handrail should feel comfortable in the hand as well as look good.

Our handrails are carefully machined and sand-finished, providing a smooth surface that is ready for installation and finishing.

For external applications, customers can select a suitable exterior timber finish depending on the environment, desired appearance and level of protection required.

Whether you are creating a new outdoor staircase or replacing an existing handrail, a quality timber handrail provides a practical combination of functionality and natural style.
