StairPartsUSA.com offers a wide variety of wrought iron balusters, tubular iron balusters, and wood balusters. Our wood balusters feature Amish crafted balusters as well as contractor grade balusters. We are often asked, "What is the difference between your Amish crafted wood balusters and your contractor grade wood balusters?" Simply put, the Amish craftsmen take more time in turning the baluster and give much more attention to detail. Each Amish crafted baluster is inspected by hand prior to shipping and is hand sanded. This means the contractor spends less time sanding prior to staining in your home. Contractor grade balusters are machine sanded much more quickly. This means there is more sanding that needs to be done prior to staining. Just about all other stair parts companies do not offer Amish crafted balusters, choosing to rely solely on the mass produced balusters we call contractor grade. How does using Amish crafted balusters save you time and money? Our Amish craftsmen do a more complete job of sanding while the baluster is on the lathe. This means your contractor will spend less time sanding on the job site. When you add things up, sometimes quality is a lot less expensive than you think.
StairPartsUSA.com offers two types of wrought iron balusters, the solid wrought iron balusters and the tubular iron balusters. The solid wrought iron balusters are more substantial to the touch, in many cases weighing almost twice what the tubular wrought iron balusters weigh. The tubular balusters are easier to cut to size which makes them a great choice for the do-it-yourself consumer or the price conscious builder. These balusters look beautiful and many homeowners can install them as a quick weekend project to add value and beauty to their homes. The solid wrought iron balusters take a little bit longer to install, but provide a more substantial feeling stairway. Which ever baluster you choose, todays more relaxed styles work well with wrought iron. With the re-emergance of Victorian style homes, we have seen an increase in sales of the Victorian Collection of wrought iron as well as the twist and basket series. Those doing the contemporary craftsmen style home might choose the versatile series or the design series. Those who like the Mediterranean style might choose the versatile style wrought iron baluster paired with the "S" scroll. What ever style you choose, we have a baluster that will work for you.
