Built to Last

At Walnut Creek Planing, we know stair parts are more than just structural components—they’re an investment in both function and aesthetics. 

A well-made staircase:

  • Enhances the design of a space
  • Offers long-lasting durability
  • Prevents costly repairs or replacements

Newels

Newels offer both structural support and make a striking design element while acting as the foundation of a staircase. We craft newels in a variety of styles, from traditional to modern. Our selection includes:

  • Box newels – Strong, elegant, ideal for making a statement.
  • Turned newels – Traditional, timeless, sophisticated craftsmanship.
  • Contemporary newels – Modern, sleek, built to last.

Balusters

Balusters are the mix of function and style, operating as both a safety feature and a design element. We offer a range of baluster designs available in a variety of shapes, patterns, and finishes.

  • Wood balusters – Warm, welcoming, well-suited to rustic and traditional aesthetics. 
  • Iron balusters – Wrought iron; simple, sleek, modern.

Handrails

Handrails are an essential component of staircases, in terms of safety and design. We offer a variety of handrail profiles that are designed to complement nearly any staircase style. Along with handrails, we provide all the necessary accessories, including brackets, fittings, and end caps to ensure a seamless, professional installation.

Stair Treads

Stair treads are the workhorse of a staircase, as they withstand daily foot traffic. Choosing the right stair tread means your staircase is beautiful, durable, and safe. Our offerings include:

  • Standard treads – Available in a variety of wood species, crafted for durability and design.
  • Starter steps – Add a decorative finish to the bottom of your stairs. 
  • Landing treads – Ideal for transitions between different flooring materials or levels.
