        "text": "In the Bay Area, local building codes for handrails typically follow the California Residential Code (CRC). Key requirements often include handrail height (usually between 34 and 38 inches above the stair nosing), grip size, and continuous extension at the top and bottom of the stairway. Balusters must be spaced to prevent a 4-inch sphere from passing through. These regulations ensure safety and accessibility, and compliance is crucial for any installation. City Dweller, LLC ensures all installations meet current local standards in Pacifica, Daly City, and surrounding areas.",
