A newel post is the upright post that sits at the top and/or bottom of the balustrade to support a staircase banister and secure the balustrade. Newel posts don’t just give a balustrade structure and strength, they also offer the perfect opportunity to add a decorative touch to your stairway.

Turned newels, like box newels, are offered in many variations. Usually, they are significantly thinner than box newels and may contain various kinds of rope twisting, fluting, and reeding. StairSupplies™ uses a precise, German engineered lathe for turned newels that is computer controlled for repeatable perfection. The turned newels are then hand sanded until they are completely smooth, offering no splinters or sharp corners. Turned newels, offered in any wood species, are the perfect statement piece at the beginning of a decorative stairway. They offer unique designs that, though often smaller than box newels, look perfect on an ornate stairway Newel posts are built to be sturdy and safe, meaning they are often wider than the handrail and baserail. They are wither a finishing point of a staircase of a mid way point that facilitates a change in direction.

This project features the a 4791 raised panel box newel and fits extremely well with the straight lines of the wrought iron balusters and floating treads. The detailing on the raised panel adds that extra bit of intrigue to the stairway. There is a huge range of options available, from the more traditional turned newel posts to the contemporary square or square twist styles. A newel post is always a fixed length usually 750mm–850mm long (excluding the peg). The newel base makes up the remainder of the height of the newel post. There are many different sub-categories within these seven styles, but we will let you explore them on your own. Further, there is a completely different style of box newel called the Craftsman Series Box Newels, but the differences between those box newels are more obvious to the naked eye, so we won’t waste your time here with the differences.

We have worked with a range of interior designers and architects often to create more modern interiors; we find that bespoke steel and other metal designs are popular for creating a beautiful blend between modern and classic style. If you’re replacing the newel completely, you can do this either by using the zip bolt newel post fastener or by fixing below floor level. If you’re attaching a new newel post to an existing newel base, you’ll need to drill a new 50mm hole into the existing base before you can fit the peg to the newel post. You can do this with a 50mm drill bit or hole saw.As with many of our products we are able to construct and supply balusters from both cast iron and fabricated steel.
