Answer

B. Banister

Step-by-step explanation

A Banister is a structure in form of a fence/barrier that is erected along the exposed parts of a stairway to prevent stairway users from falling. It can be constructed along edges of a floor opening, a ramp or a runway. Apart from safety on the staircase, a banister adds the aesthetic appeal of your home when high quality wood is used.
