Balusters are the vertical members used to fill the space below Handrails
Frequently referred to as Spindles, Balusters add physical and visual support to your Handrails. Often necessary for safety, Balusters also beautify a porch in a very elegant and traditional manner!
Baluster size and/or type is mostly a matter of personal choice. For example, do you want a light and airy balustrade or do you prefer something more substantial?
Turned Balusters are very pleasing when spaced properly. Plain Square and Sawn Balusters provide a different but still traditional look.
Here are a number of considerations when choosing and installing the right Balusters for your porch. At our Baluster Info page, you will find information on height and size considerations and much more.
