The term "4100 plain 3 inch newel post" refers to a specific type of newel post used in staircases or balustrades. Let's break down the different components of the term:

  1. "Plain": The term "plain" typically indicates that the newel post does not have any decorative features or embellishments. It has a simple and clean design without any added details or carvings.
  2. "3 inch": This dimension refers to the width of the newel post. In this case, it indicates that the newel has a width of 3 inches. The width is measured across the broadest part of the newel.

The 3-inch contemporary newel post refers to a type of structural support post commonly used in staircases and balustrades. Newel posts are vertical posts that provide stability and support to the handrail system. They are typically located at the bottom and top of a staircase, as well as at any intermediate landing or turning points.

The term "3-inch" in this context refers to the diameter or width of the newel post. A 3-inch contemporary newel post would have a diameter of 3 inches (approximately 7.62 centimeters). The contemporary style implies that it has a modern design aesthetic, often characterized by clean lines, simplicity, and minimalist features.

Contemporary newel posts are readily available in wood for strength and stability. Wood newel posts are commonly made from hardwood species like whit oak, maple, or walnut for their durability and beauty. The choice of material depends on personal preference, desired style, and the overall design of the staircase or balustrade.

It's worth noting that the availability of specific dimensions and styles are available at Stair Warehouse. If you are looking to purchase a 3-inch contemporary newel post, it's advisable to consult with a local supplier or check online at stairwarehouse.com
