The turned baluster profiles pictured here, are turned from solid western red cedar and shipped sanded smooth with a primer coat.

Their substantial dimensions gives a railing system the sturdy authentic look of railings produced in the late 1800's.

The high amounts of natural tannic acid in the red cedar, makes them decay resistant.

When considering our balusters, please determine the finished hand rail height that you prefer, and we will determine a proper baluster height.

We ship all balusters cut to your lengths. The prices show here are for balusters up to 30" in length. For lengths over 30", please call for a quote.

Balusters used on stairs are usually over 30", to allow for angle cut.

As an option on our balusters, you may have us cut a "V" notch on the bottom of the baluster, which helps shed water. The "V" angle exactly matches the 15 degree slope of our top rail. When ordering the "V" notch, you will receive a top rail as shown and a bottom rail with a slope instead of flat as shown. You may also receive the top rail separated from the 3/4" sub rail. This allows for concealed assembly of the top part of the baluster.

Do It Yourself Easy Assembly

We offer an assembly system which allows quick and easy assembly of our balusters to our railings with a screw at the top and bottom and no exposed fasteners showing. See installation tips.
