Wooden Spindles for Stairs & Staircases

Choose a specific product range:

We produce a large range of Stair Spindles that compliment every Staircase and Handrail whether is it modern or traditional. Stair spindles are produced in four standard thickness'. 32mm², 35mm², 41mm² and 50mm². Every Handrail and Baserail carries a groove of matching size. Standard Stair Spindles are produced 900mm and 1100mm long. The longer of the two are mainly used for commercial properties or ‘cut string’ Staircases where the Stair Spindles are fitted directly to the treads or for some gallery landings.

Stair spindles are made in many different designs using many different wood machining techniques. From the very basic 'Blank' design, which is completely square along the whole length of the stair spindle to the very intricate 'Twist' design. Other stair spindle designs include, Chamfered, Ovolo, Georgian, Colonial, Imperial, Oxford and Provincial. Another stair spindle design that we offer is 'Fluted'. This is a machining technique that can be added to all turned stair spindles such as, Georgian, Colonial, Imperial and Oxford. 'Fluting' is the process off machining vertical grooves into stair spindles after they have been turned. All designs of stair spindles can be accompanied by a matching newel post when required.

All of our Stair Spindles are produced 900mm and 1100mm long in pine, hemlock, mahogany, ash or oak as standard. If you do not find what your looking for in our range and have a design of your own or an existing pattern to be matched, we can copy this for you from a photograph, drawing or from your old stair spindle.

Although the stair spindles are available in different thicknesses, you will notice that there is more choice the thicker the spindle size. This is because some of the patterns are so intricate the 41mm² and 50mm² are the only size spindle that is strong enough or that the design only looks good on the thicker stair spindles.
