Newel posts anchor a staircase, both in terms of support and also in design and creativity. Crafted from wood, these posts can be tailored to the exact specifications of each project. The versatility of wooden newel posts allows them to blend with various architectural styles, either traditional or modern.
Design options for newel posts are extensive. We offer style choices that include tapered, fluted, twisted, turned, and more. Each design creates a unique visual effect. Tapered newels bring a sleek look; fluted styles add a classic vibe; twisted posts introduce movement; and turned posts offer a more ornamental look. By selecting a style that complements your home, you can achieve a cohesive design that is appealing to the eye.
Wood species selection is an important part of the customization process for posts. For interiors, popular wood choices include oak, maple, and cherry. For exterior use, species like cedar and teak offer natural resistance to the elements. The broad range of wood types available via Arnold Wood means that each newel post can be matched precisely to the project’s needs.
Customizable in both style and wood species, newel posts improve the overall look of a stairway. Please feel free to click here to explore our Architectural Wood Products Gallery for more examples of what we can manufacture for you!
