A huge “Thank You” to this Minnesota customer for sending pictures of this beautiful porch. This homeowner wanted to keep the profile of their original porch railing.

Replacing your porch railing can seem like a big project, especially if it includes custom reproduction spindles and newel posts. But it’s easier than you think. This Portland customer simply sent us the original posts and spindles, and selected a our standard 4″ class 3-piece Porch Rail System. We were able to match his posts […]
This Quincy, MA deck made beautiful use of our 4″ class 3-piece Cedar Porch Rail System, both in straight and curved sections. Also featured are 1 3/8″ Square Cedar Balusters with Bottom Notched to match the Sloped Bottom Rail, which increases longevity.

If you are looking for spindles that are architecturally and period correct for your house made out of something other than pressure treated lumber, […]
This project was a fun one. This home’s natural beauty was being dragged down by a old rotted porch floor and railing. While the task seemed daunting at first, a breakdown of the steps involved (and a little help from Western Spindle) revealed that this project was very do-able. Seven-piece top rail with scalloped trim […]
