decorative stair newel post

A decorative stair newel post is the polyurethane decorative version of the vertical post that carries the handrail on a stair balustrade. It is used at the start and turning points of stair railing lines to create the look of a vertical support and visually complete the balustrade. The polyurethane post is lightweight and is fixed in place with mounting adhesive or a suitable fastening; it resists moisture and impact, does not crack or swell, and can be painted. Unlike a wooden post, it is unaffected by moisture, does not rot, and does not attract insects. Because it is mould-produced, the fluting and profile details repeat identically on every piece. Polure manufactures decorative stair newel posts in a range of heights and cross-sections.
