DIY Staircase Railing Fabrication and Install

This DIY Staircase Railing project was probably the most challenging piece of finish carpentry work that I've tried on this ICF build. After a few attempts at building custom box newels, I finally was able to get the rustic look and color I had envisioned. Drilling holes in the oak angled staircase railing was difficult using a 3/4 inch spade bit I kept at it. The round balusters left over from the exterior deck rail was a perfect complement to the dark stain color and we were able to save quite a bit of money on the project by fabricating the whole thing from scratch.

Absolutely gorgeous stairs, I am very happy for you all.

[@MaxPannus]

A lot of questions unanswered. like, how the posts are attached to the floor. how the verticals are inserted one at a time without the whole thing falling apart. why the half-post, I mean, it's fun to watch you work in time lapse but it really isn't very helpful for someone who is trying to do the job.

[@1960taylor]

Stunning. Great job.

[@mariacasadiego1469]

Love this stair railing. Could you tell me the dimensions of the newel posts?

[@WilliamTMusil]

Hiya Jeremy

[@GregVasquez777]

Great job!!

[@KatytheNightOwl]

I can't get over how professional your railings look. The colour you used looks so rich and sleek, and the whole thing just fits beautifully :)

[@lindacrawford5029]

Beautiful job!

[@straubdavid9]

The railing and stairs look amazing! Tedious yes, but soooo worth it in the end👍 Take care Guildbrooksters🏰

[@RXRSawdustStation]

That looks amazing, Jeremy! Great work, man! Thank you for all you do!

[@swissmiss8171]

Beautiful railings. Looks very high end and adds so much to the look of the home. It was worth the work.

[@patgaudrault2156]

Very nice looking railing, I was just curious, the horizontal railings seem to have posts much closer. Is there any sideways sway to the long stairway hand rail at all? It certainly makes a beautiful looking job; well done!

[@helenbrill2330]

Amazing! Well done.

[@valcourisland1776]

Wow! That looks great!

[@zeninsyt]

The railing and posts look great ! Well worth the time in the details :)

[@centervillenews]

I would love to see how you put the railing/balusters/etc... together...drilled the holes, found the angles, etc...looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing.

[@northstarprepsteader]

You’re an artisan! The rails are beautiful.

[@Allikattoo]
