Stair Design Tool
Design your staircase online before you buy. Our free design tool, The StairArtist, lets you drag and drop newel posts and balusters onto a real staircase photo, so you can try different patterns and see how they’ll look in your home. When you like a design, send it to us and we’ll build your parts list and a free quote.
How It Works
1. Pick a staircase
Start with one of the real staircase photos in the tool.
2. Drag in newels and balusters
Drop newel posts and balusters onto the stairs and try different patterns. Everything uses real product photos, so it looks like the finished job.
3. Send us your design
The tool doesn’t count parts for you. Send us your design and your measurements, and we’ll work out every part you need and send a free quote.

- It’s for picking a look, not counting parts. For quantities, use our baluster spacing guide or let us do it with a free quote.
- It’s made by PecanCreek Software and hosted on their site, so it opens in a new window.
- Need ideas first? Browse our staircase photo gallery or shop iron balusters.
