UI illustration

The lower and upper handles define the endpoints of a selected range. This pattern is useful for filtering prices or time spans while showing the available domain.

When to use it

Identify each endpoint and prevent the lower value from exceeding the upper value.

Know the difference

A single slider chooses one value; a range slider chooses a pair of bounds.
