i am purchasing a home and there is a stair going o the basement. there's a wall on the left and no railing on the right, it's open. asise from safety reasons, is a handrail required by new york state law?
is it a law to have a railing for basement stairs?
I believe a handrail would be required regardless of what state you're in.
