‘Traditional and beautiful’ was the client’s brief when we were asked to design, make and install continuous Sapele handrails and spindles for their home.

The handrail was a custom-made bun shape, with each part milled on one of our 5-axis CNC machines, then French polished along with a bespoke newel cap at the foot of the stair.

Each spindle was turned and prime coated, then individually tenoned into the new cut string staircase. Our craftsman spent 3 days on-site installing the balustrade from the ground to the second floor, with no newel posts and no steel reinforcement.

Our client was delighted, adding:

“Very happy – everyone loves them…  we have a new expert chippie and even he impressed!”
