      When using these when handrail is not horizontal, but it's angled on ascending stairs, do you have to cut the baluster at an angle at the top since the hand rail is angled? Any directions for this?

                Is there an extension possibility for this? I want the pole to go from the step straight up into the floor of the next level. Appearing To be one long seamless hole, adding height to the room.

                Hi Nisa, Unfortunately, there isn’t an extension for this baluster. I recommend you will have to have one made out of tubular steel.

                    Met expectations
                    These worked out just fine. We cut them using a sawzall. The hardest part is getting the spacing correct. It sounds easy but takes quite some time. We looked up the code and then adjusted for the distance we had. Marked using a laser level on blue tape. Home Depot should better stock baluster parts. We had to drive to four different Home Depots to get the parts. Nobody is installing just 7 balusters!

                      Easy to cut to size. One of the balusters we received was rusted over but I had ordered extra. Easy to install with the installation kit.

                            I bought 21 of the 44 x 1/2in straight balusters for a level railing application in my Tri-Level home. I just about cleaned out my Home Depot, and they didn't have enough of the shoes either. If you think you need a bunch, plan ahead and order. The reason for 4 stars is that about 25% of them were not quite straight. You can't really tell until you get them out of the individual bags... which is not very polite at the store. But, it was still a surprise. I still used them, and it's hard to tell. There are a couple choices for the "shoes", such as; 1/2 in. Matte Black Flat Metal Shoe, with the allen set screw, or a plastic slide-on shoe. I used both because of the inventory shortages at two stores. Each type works OK, but you need to pay attention to the cut length when using the plastic shoe on the round end.
