Another finished project! We love how this circular wooden staircase with custom box newels turned out! This traditional wooden staircase has custom box newels made with panel molding at the base of the staircase. It also incorporates a custom bending handrail and custom turned balusters that match well with the style of the home. Interested in a similar style staircase for your home? The following parts were used to create this beautiful staircase:
Shop Stair Parts Products for this Contemporary Wooden Staircase Project:
Bending Handrails
Bending handrails for curved staircases can be bent to a maximum radius of 48 inches. Any radius handrail tighter than a 4 foot radius can be made custom to your specifications. If your stair project requires a very tight railing bend, we will need to be provided with an accurate cardboard or plywood template in order to manufacture the section to properly fit your staircase. Please note that wood bending handrails only bend left and right, they do not bend up and down. In order to achieve up or down transitions, you will need to purchase handrail fittings (such as up easings and over easings) that match the appropriate handrail or bending handrail profile.
Wood Balusters
Our fine hardwood balusters can be customized in terms of height, width, and spacing between details. We specialize in historical reproduction turnings for staircases. All wood baluster profiles can be made in a large version. 2 1/4″ width is the most common upgrade, but we are capable of producing turned wood balusters and newel posts up to 5 1/2″ wide. All wood balusters and wood newel posts are available with the bottom square base block turned round.
All our wood balusters are proudly made in the USA.
Box Newel Posts
Box newel posts are manufactured using 3/4″ thick solid hardwood for all four sides. These posts are constructed with lock miter joints at the corners. The flat panel and raised panel versions are made using true stile & rail construction, not just a routed out pocket. Our posts are a piece of furniture.
See below for different size options.

Wood Stair Treads
Wood stair treads are offered in a standard 1-1/32″ finished thickness after surfacing and sanding. Extra thick hardwood stair treads for open rise staircases are available in any thickness. The most popular over sized wood tread sizes are 1-3/4″ and 2″ thick. We have produced treads as thick as 4″. Any stair tread thicker than 1-3/4″ will require face glue lamination(s) to meet the desired finished dimension.
