We purchased all of the part to replace an outdated bannister from this site. And are very pleased with everything including the prices. High quality and quick shipping.

I was in a bind trying to find balusters that match some existing balusters in size. The local DIY stores stock was just too big. Cheap Stair Parts saved the day. I found the size I needed and the price and delivery was very reasonable.

While building our staircase, my husband wanted to make his own balusters. He’s one of those that thinks he can do everything better. My thought was once he had planed and cut all the pieces, I’d have to sand, prime & paint 50 balusters. NO! I’d like to get this done in this century. To the internet I went and found Cheap Stair Parts. He just installed the balusters and BOTH of us could not be happier. The balusters are wonderful. Great quality & the white finish is beautiful (personally I may not even have to paint them). Recommend these HIGHLY.
