As a very young boy (3 1/2 years old) I lived in a neighborhood that was being developed from new streets to new houses. At the end of my street they were building three new houses. Every morning I played in the sand pit of the building site with my toy construction trucks. One day this big man in overalls said “I want to show you something.” I said “Okay.” He picked me up and took me upstairs to one of the houses being built. He sat me down on the interior staircase and then took this huge plane and planed the edge of a door. The room filled with pine smell. The man picked up the shaving and I put my arms out to receive that beautiful shaving of wood. I knew this was going to be my life.
Horizontal Rod Railing and Stair Systems
Proportionally designed floor-mounted posts and .3125 in. horizontal stainless steel rods create a well-balanced railing system. Rods are passed through steel posts and held with a set screw. This results in a clean modern look as well as an extremely safe railing. Posts and top rails are clear coated with a satin (20% sheen) lacquer finish and the stainless-steel rods are brushed to a satin finish. Posts are a maximum of 32 in. apart. Railing heights are to code at either 36 or 42 in. high. Posts and top rail are .375 in. thick by 1.75 in. wide. Rods are spaced to code at approximately 3.75 in. This design gives you clean end posts with a simple dot pattern. Click here for more information and specifications.
