Mounting handle on stairs

I want to mount a wooden handle in the stairway of a 3010 (see photo). I used a stud finder and mallet, but I couldn't find a stud between the window and the front door. To securely mount the handle so my DW doesn't do a header down the stairs, I'm thinking I will have to drill large enough holes so I can use some of those butterfly wall anchors. I think there is styrofoam sandwiched between the interior and exterior wall panels; will that prevent me from using the butterfly anchors?

Please advise.

Bob in Houston I would call Heartland and talk to the brand manager to see if they could give you the measurement from the nearest known window or door frame. It would help if you had the vin# when you call.
