I love it. They cut the rails and the next thing you know is they’re gone. Geez.....Some people just don’t have a clue on how to make an instructional video!
Looks nice, my only complaint is that it offers no support. The two pieces don't lock together anywhere. So it seems over time with kids playing on the stairs, normal rail usage of going up and down the stairs, etc. Seems like the hand rail would begin to sag. Needs a set screw or some other way to support the weight.
what about the old holes for the balusters? You can see after the first metal baluster went in that there were holes left from the wooden balusters. Easy to fix but I'm wondering why it was not shown.
Why do all of the DIY only show staircases where the new iron balusters fit in *exactly* where the old wood ones were? There are many, MANY people who have much more complicated railing systems and things don't fit this perfectly. Would love to see a real life video of how to replace these.
Not code compliant in most cases. If the old ones exactly met the 4” between balusters required, then these will fail since they are not as thick/wide and will end up as >4” spacing between.
it not to do with structure, more to do with safety between each spindle. the reason you have a specific code that they must meet a set distance between each other has to do with kids could possibly fall through them or get the head stuck between them hence needs to be code compliant.
The staircase wasn’t “ruined” just because they replaced something that looked fine to yaw 🙄🙄 ppl of the interweb is so annoying. If you don’t like it keep scrolling, if it’s not what you’re looking for or need….find the video that fits your needs🤦🏾♀️
Wow, those black plastic feet look... Absolutely awful. Can't quite believe they removed simple, tasteful wooden spindles and replaced them with black plastic. Nicely complimented by the plastic Christmastimes! decorations though.

I think it looks great.
How did you remove the wood handrails after cut?
I think that without a solid spindle, the two part spindle is going to make this a shaky staircase
No decorative "cup" that goes over where it's attached to hide the screws?
I would have liked to see the end result without decorations. Just hard to see it.
On purpose?
2:16 why is the new spindle not lining up with the original spindle that was removed. now you have exposed holes on the underside of the banister
Wood filler sand paint

Um...You guys completely neglect the fact that the underside of the bannister has a bunch of unsightly holes!
We’re can you buy those they look good would to know more about that product
How it looks is pure opinion, I love it. What I don't know is how you removed the white spindles after you cut them?
They just pull out. The end of the spindle is just like a dowel that fits in a hole.
Its Christmas! Stairs look great!
The mounting lugs look awful. Would have been better to strip or repaint existing.
These balusters come with a couple screws and a bolt. What is the bolt for?
Looked okay before. All it needed with that dark flooring on the stairs was a paint job in a deep taupe or black spindles.
Wrong!.....that is all YOU needed for this job to LOOK how YOU want it!

I was going to say that as well.
“Really needs a makeover”? Looks fine to me
you must be a man and doesn't care about what us women want? LOL
Exactly. Some people just have too much money or time on their hands. Looked better before with wood spindle
Looks don't mean safe
How can you buy it? The website doesn't state it.
Looks a lot better. But noticed some people saying it’s not “code compliant”... is that true? Is this going to be structurally safe?
it not to do with structure, more to do with safety between each spindle. the reason you have a specific code that they must meet a set distance between each other has to do with kids could possibly fall through them or get the head stuck between them hence needs to be code compliant.
Get it plum not level
what's the size of the allen wrench to adjust the height?
It would have been nice to see him pull the old spindles out

But the main post remain antiquated should have changed for a more squares modern look the round spindled post are old news
That’s not what I need. I need to know how to put the wooden ones and build a railing safe so I can go downstairs with a wooden staircase.
looked better before
it looked better before!
The old one is better
It looked better before
This is a quick and easy way to ruin a good staircase.
