People call us all the time and ask "Why are your iron baluster prices so cheap?" Our answer is simple. Our powder coated iron balusters and shoes are so affordable because we sell in box quantities and expect only the best from our manufacturer.
Well-made banisters and railings are a requirement for safety if you have an exposed stairway, but they don’t have to be purely functional. Why not dress up the space with lacy, elegant iron balusters?
Iron doesn’t only belong outside. Since it can be shaped into an unlimited number of designs, iron can add fluidity and grace to the plainest stairways. And its strength and resilience satisfies the most stringent safety needs.
Special attention can be given to the newel posts—the sturdy structural posts at the top and bottom of stairways. A more elaborate design at these junctures is both beautiful and structurally sound. Although we’re just beginning to see iron used indoors, this trend was also popular in 16th and 17th century France and Italy. When combined with sweeping stairways and ornate ceilings, iron balusters and banisters have a rich and elegant appeal. Added with a wooden handrail, iron balusters can still be affordable. Wood and iron combinations keep the price down, yet still provide the beauty and elegance of all iron staircases. Iron rods with twists, scrolling rods with lacy "baskets," filigree designs, and shapes from the botanical world are just a few of the options when you’re considering iron.
If made of iron balusters (the vertical elements that prevent users from slipping through the stairs) are an ideal place for a little self-expression in decorating. They are available in innumerable shapes and many colors. If you are trying to match existing balusters or have specific requirements for the balusters, please call us to discuss your specific needs before placing your entire order.
