Help from someone living in Amsterdam

Hi,

Soon I am visiting Amsterdam for a few days and it would be really helpful if I could find somewhere that supplies stair rails and their fittings, like B&Q or similar would in the UK. Where I live overseas it is almost impossible to find this stuff. My current best quote for 2 x 1.5m of stair rail with fittings is 2700dhs which equates to approx GBP500 or Euro 693. From the UK the cost would be about gbp80! I have the luggage allowance at least weight wise not too sure about the rails but hey ho.

Anyone? Thanks.

Not actually sure about Amsterdam itself, but there is a massive baby store chain called "Baby Dump" in The Netherlands. I've been to several and find it a really good chain. I think the closest to Amsterdam is either the Beverwijk or Utrecht store (not 100% sure).
Hopefully the link below will paste correctly, it has a "winkel" section (stores in Dutch) so you can probably locate the nearest one. Hope this helps a bit

You can order from bol.com (Dutch equivalent of amazon) to pick up anywhere in the country, for example the main supermarket chain, Albert Heijn, of which there are dozens in Amsterdam

Oh I'm so sorry. I didn't mean baby gates, I meant actual hand rails for using walking upstairs. Apologies fir the confusion, but thanks for the help.
