iron railing
Stairway safety bars
An iron railing is a barrier or fence made of iron bars, typically found along staircases, balconies, porches, or property boundaries.
The term usually implies decorative wrought iron with ornamental scrollwork, distinguishing it from plain metal fencing: She gripped the iron railing as she climbed the steps.
Iron railings are characteristic of Victorian and historic urban architecture.
