In 2001, a customer named Jen was building her dream home in southern Michigan and wanted a beautiful stairway. She could see what she wanted in her mind, but the stair parts she wanted were not available through normal outlets. She wanted unique iron balusters with custom box newels. Len thought he could meet her needs, and StairSupplies was born.
Today, StairSupplies thrives on customizing stairways with iron balusters, the most extensive line of box newels available, a generous selection of handrails and the most beautiful turned newels that you can imagine. While you browse the Stair Supplies website, give your imagination freedom and allow our craftsmen to complete your dream.
Our stair specialists focus on building, creating and designing. Our customers understand that they want their home to be a place of beauty and function, and they need help selecting the right mixture of wood species and design to achieve a beautiful stair creation.
Project was to install an all oak railing and handrail. Getting the right parts on the order took a bit of back and forth with the company representative, but nothing too unnerving. The product took a while to arrive, but they told me that up front, so it was no surprise. When product arrived, the delivery people carted the product into our garage since it was early February. No problems. And wow was the product well protected in shipping! I was a bit surprised to see how big the two shipping crates were. When i unpacked them however, I was pleasantly surprised to see how much care they had taken to protect the products. And the unstained oak newel posts and balusters are beautiful! Very well made and of very high quality. Mitered corners on the Box newels to hide all joints. I have yet to install, just having unpacked the materials today, but i am most satisfied with the quality, the accuracy of the order, and the care that was taken to product the product while in transit! Great job to all!
@stairsupplies These are idiots of the highest degree. They advertised a great deal on Google shopping then sent 1/100th of the order. Do they seriously think they can remain in business stealing from people like this? Then they refused to make it right. WOW #avoidthiscompany
Ordering stairs online is not for the faint of heart. TJ was very helpful. The rest was a hassle. Stair supplies uses a shipping company that shows up in a semi truck and expects you to hoist an 800 pound 22 ft crate off their truck (steel mono stringer beam with supplies). No prior notice or warning was given about that. One railing showed up that was a completely different color than ordered for half the wood. They did replace but then that was another month delay. Received a shortage of hardware and charged $40 bucks to fedex to fix their error. Then, that fedex was sent regular mail instead and had to start the process all over again. The lady processing the request basically sounded irritated at me about their error, and absolutely no apology offered. But hey, she didnt charge me for the second “fedex”. They did send a representative to oversee the initial installation for the day which proved helpful. Having said that, on a positive note, the actual product is nice and I appreciated the wide selection of woods and treads that were available to choose from. In summary, see the first sentence again.
Great advice by email! I had a very helpful conversation with Jayson L by email that helped me move forward with my stairs project. The cable railings won't work for me so I've had to look elsewhere, but Jayson was great at talking me through the decision process. Even though I'm not a buyer, I would heartily recommend. Thanks!
I really enjoyed the fit and feel of the railings. Ease of assembly and clean setup was great. My only disappointment is around the Key Hole Connectors. With a little effort they could be great, the main issue is that they don't lock in place, but can turn and come loose, if there was a little notch on the outside edge that fit into the groove to lock them from turning these would be amazing.
Materials and serve were top notch; would use again
I returned/exchanged items and never was reimbursed.
They were great to be able to ship to Newfoundland, Canada what I was looking for. Thanks!
straight forward modeling, easy ordering and solid support. our cable rail system with its black walnut handle is spectacular!
Now that they're in, the stairs are beautiful, and we could not be happier. The install was complicated by fact that only a portion of the hanger bolts and hex nuts were shipped in the order. So we ended up having to shop around town for the necessary hardware parts. Waiting for a back-up shipment would have taken too long. It also would have helped to have had some instructions included.
great quality. impeccable packing of order. Nothing was damaged. Looks great. Can't wait to do all of my stairs.
Just easy to get all you need for your stairs
Treads were as expected, and arrived well packaged and on time.
Excellent service
Good customer service on the phone. Prompt reply to my emails. Products as it shown online. Landing piece had a crack when it was shipped, luckily we were able to turn it upside down. Price and the options available at Stairsmaster can’t find any other site. I can wait untill my next project so I can order my stairs/steps again.
Love the product. Great and timely service. Great and informative website.
We replaced our white painted ballisters with bronze colored iron ones. The quality is excellent- very substantial, good weight. Much more updated look, pdf instructions on website were easy to follow. Shipping was prettt quick, one appeared to be crooked . Customer service was excellent, replacement was sent immediately, no questions asked. Great experience.
Love this company. Great selection. Fast delivery.
The product is 5-star, but the packaging is 4-star. The screws for the universal top post hardware are packaged together in a small zip-lock bag, causing small paint chips to occur on the matte black finish during shipping. The boxes used for the tension kits with all the cut-outs for the parts don't work. During shipment the adhesive sleeves fall out and slide around the bottom of the box.
