It doesn’t get easier than this. Cut and hammer out an old wood baluster from your stairway system. Then replace it with a decorative iron baluster. Repeat in a pattern that works for your home’s style. That’s how simple it is to transform a staircase in one afternoon.

You can replace all the wooden balusters, or leave some in to mix with the new designer iron balusters. Whichever you decide, upgrading the look of a stairway system can be done in just a few hours with the IronPro™ system.

Fast Fix for the Home

When homeowner Suzannah Stanley started looking at changing the second-floor stairway system in her older home, she turned to our IronPro system.

“We have a toddler at home and I wouldn’t allow him on the second floor because the balusters were placed too far apart,” says Stanley, an influencer who wrote about her experience on her site, Create/Enjoy. “As he grew, so did our concern about the hazards of the stairway. So we looked into repositioning and replacing the balusters. The option of using the IronPro system made it exceptionally fast and easy.

“In one afternoon we replaced the balusters but kept the structural aspect of the stairway. The IronPro level kit includes both a pivoting top piece and a stationary bottom piece. That made it easy to install the iron baluster style we wanted.

“This turned out to be a really affordable project. We gained peace-of-mind by having the balusters relocated. At the same time, we enhanced the way the entire stairway looks by keeping the wood handrail and adding the iron balusters.”

New Stairway Look with Minimal Effort

If you can use a tape measure, a drill, and a few common tools, you can easily swap outdated wooden balusters and gain a trendy new look for your stairway.

Easy Steps:

1. After removing the existing baluster, the pivoting fasteners of the IronPro are attached to the handrail.

2. Then the new iron baluster is measured and cut.

3. The iron baluster is then inserted into the pivot fastener and swung into a vertical position.

4. The assembly is aligned and screwed into place to secure the baluster. It’s that easy.

You can replace all or just a few of your old wooden balusters. You may choose to swap out every other baluster or even every third baluster. It’s just a matter of what kind of finished look you’re interested in creating for your personal space.
