No problem, I have attached it.
I looked at the whole thing again on site and the staircase is 111cm wide (edge of stair step to plaster). Theoretically, I could also use the 75mm profile, since 100cm is okay for a staircase. The question is whether it is necessary. Actually, the staircase should be 10cm wider and 2.5cm can be a lot when carrying a couch.
But I believe the drywall solution is completely sufficient. I always had the image of a classic railing, where the posts stand every 60-100cm. I also had the concern that the dowels of the UW profile would not hold. But these are all wrong assumptions. The UW profile is only there so that you can fasten the panel at the bottom. The stability comes from the UA profile, which is mounted on the side of EACH stair step. Thus, I have a UA profile every 26cm and if I fasten it with 2 dowels, the leverage is no longer so extreme. The UA profiles are then connected with gypsum fiber boards, so the force will also be transferred to the other UA profiles.
That should be stable. Before I start, I will first mount one profile and see how stable it is.
What do you think?
