Banisters

The banister is a functional, classic, and potentially exciting visual focal point of a home. Traditionally made of wood, the banister has been made for centuries and is an extremely popular home fixture. Modern craftsmen continue to make timeless, antique designs as well as reinvent and find new, fresh takes for the modern era. Regardless of a homeowner's style, choosing a banister is a decision that will increase the home value and create an instant emotive statement.

Banisters are made to strict building code standards for safety as to not allow a small child to fall through the side of the stairs, or get stuck between the balusters. Although there are functional aspects of design, the style and appeal is in no way limited by this. A wide range of materials can be used, many different types of wood, metal, stone, or concrete. Wood is by far the most popular, but wrought iron is also a tried and true winner. As well as the materials to consider are the styles available. When choosing a banister for a home, the architectural style of the home should be considered, as well as the existing furniture and home fixtures, such as moldings and baseboards.  For more information see the section on banisters here.
