Does anyone know where I can get a new one of these?

Or a good way to replace it with something else more modern that won't break the bank? My condo was build in the 70's, the screws are not tight anymore and it wobbles like crazy, plus, it's just ugly. Thanks.

    What is It? Hand rail? Is it angled or just the picture? You can replace with simple wood rail and spindles.

    When you say the screws are not tight I assume that you have tried to tighten them but they still work loose. The wiggling over 40 years has enlarged the holes.Get screws that are 1/2 inch longer and replace them. This is a quick and inexpensive way to be sure your hand rail is safe while you figure out what design you want.

    Before going to the expence of replacing the rail, I would remove it, spray a coat of good primer on it and then spray paint it black. Then replace all those loose screws. You might be amazed at the difference just changing the color will make. Good luck!

    The stairs look contemporary so I think a stiles steel cable/rail system would look good. Have no idea how pricey it would be.
