FORGED IRON FORGED IRON INSTALLATION S t e p O n e B a l u s t e r s Here s your chance to be creative. Our forged iron stairways may be designed to your preference. Feel free to mix and match balusters that appeal to you. Almost any combination is acceptable. Balusters for the Balcony Our graceful belly balusters are specially designed for balconies. They are a great way to make your stairway unique! S t e p T w o N e w e l s You may choose either a forged iron or a wood newel. Forged iron newels may be used in Over-the-Post installations. Wood newels may be used in both Post-to-Post and Over-the-Post stairways. If you choose a wood newel installation, consider one of our many box newels combined with forged iron balusters, they make a beautiful stairway (see pages 33-36). Installation Using a Box Newel Handrail Profiles S t e p T h r e e H a n d r a i l s Again, we offer a wide array of styles with matching fittings. See page 57 for the handrails that may be used with our forged iron stairways. S t e p F o u r T i p s Many building codes require three balusters on a tread. Check with your local code officials if you have any doubts about compliance. Because these balusters are handcrafted, they may vary slightly in size. Please check each baluster and newel before you drill the hole for it. Illustration Gooseneck may require a longer baluster Intermediate Landing S t e p F i v e C o m p o n e n t s Balusters are offered in both square and round shapes and may be installed with or without shoes. Each requires that the appropriately-shaped hole be cut in the tread and handrail. One way to cut the square hole is by drilling a round hole in the wood the same size as the baluster s overall width. Then, chisel out the hole to make it square (see illustration 2). 25
DESIGN AND INSTALL FORGED IRON STAIRWAYS Illustration 2 Chiseling a square hole from a round hole Illustration 3 If you use shoes, you may decide to drill a round hole and not chisel it square. This hole will be the size of the diagonal measurement of the baluster and will be hidden by the shoe (some shoes have set screws to hold them in place [see illustration 3]). We recommend using epoxy in the hole. You may apply the epoxy in one of two ways: () If you have only a few steps to install, you may put the epoxy in the hole before the baluster. Apply a small amount of epoxy you don t want it to overflow when the baluster is inserted. Then, put the shoe on the baluster and place the baluster in the hole. Continue up the staircase. Important: The cure time for epoxy is approximately 5 minutes, so you must proceed with speed once you ve started the process! (2) If you have several steps to install or if you don t feel comfortable with scenario # then place the baluster in the hole before applying the epoxy. Put the epoxy in the hole between the baluster and the side of the hole (see illustration 3). Do not get epoxy on any wood surfaces that you are going to finish. Setting a square baluster in a round hole Angle shoe under handrail Illustration 4 If you are using round forged iron balusters, you may drill a small hole through the baluster and insert a small finishing nail into the wood. Or, you may fit the baluster into a hole of the same size drilled into the tread and allow it to turn. Angle shoes are used beneath the handrail and where the baluster connects to the treads, and also on installations where a knee wall is used (see illustration 4). A set screw on the side of the shoe will hold it in place. (NOTE: The Angle of the rake top baluster shoes can be adjusted to the proper angle by using a hand held grinder or by clamping each shoe on the chop saw and cutting the proper angle.) Angle shoe and kneewall Illustration 5 Riser An easy method for mounting forged iron newels on intermediate landings Forged iron newels are installed differently depending upon their locations: Starting step: Cut a square hole into the tread and riser plates. The hole must be a good, tight fit around the newel. A mortising bit is very helpful for cutting this square hole. Intermediate landing: Drill two holes in the side of the newel and attach the newel to the riser. This is the easiest and strongest method (see illustration 5). Balcony: Cut square holes into the floor. Then, depending on under-floor access, either screw the newel into a joist (similar to the way an intermediate newel is screwed into a riser) or attach the newel to the front of the balcony with the appropriate screws. NOTE: USE THE 843 NEWEL INSTALLATION HARDWARE TO INSTALL 30MM FORGED IRON NEWELS 26

STAIR PART TERMS STAIR PART TERMS ILLUSTRATED AND DEFINED B a l u s t e r s The vertical posts which support the railing of the staircase. The term balustrade refers to the baluster and rail system. C o v e M o u l d i n g A decorative strip which, when attached to the underside of the tread nosing, covers the joint between the tread and riser. F i l l e t Strips which fill the plow between balusters on plowed handrail and shoerail. F i t t i n g s The stair parts used to form a smooth transition when the handrail changes height or direction. For example, starting a balustrade (volute, turnout, starting easing), at a landing (gooseneck) and at a balcony. H a n d r a i l s The horizontal or rake member of a balustrade system. It sits on top of the balusters and is supported by newel posts. N e w e l s The major support posts for the balustrade system. Larger and heavier than the balusters, newels are located at the bottom and top of a staircase and at turns and critical support areas of balcony rails. N o s i n g The portion of a tread or landing tread which protrudes beyond the face of the riser. R a k e The slope or angle of the staircase (also referred to as rake angle). 66 R i s e r s The vertical component of a stair which supports the treads. S h o e r a i l A piece running along the floor which is plowed for the insertion of balusters and fillets. S t a r t i n g S t e p s The first tread and riser at the bottom of the staircase. T r e a d s The horizontal portion of the staircase upon which you walk.
CORRECT STAIRS ARCHITECTURALLY CORRECT STAIRWAYS C r o w n S y s t e m H o w T o M a k e Y o u r S t a i r w a y A r c h i t e c t u r a l l y C o r r e c t The Crown System is available in standard baluster lengths. For the 3 / 4 balusters, those lengths are 35, 37 / 2, 39 and 44. For the / 4 balusters, those lengths are 3, 35, 37 / 2, 39 and 42. In most areas, the building codes require a 34 rake height and a 36 balcony or guardrail height. Please note that these balusters are designed to be cut at the top when installed. Available in standard lengths of 35, 37 / 2, 39 and 44, but sometimes also offered in 3 and 42 lengths for the / 4 balusters. { Our flutes, twists, reeds and ropes will line up correctly with the rake rail, offering a leading feature that other manufacturers cannot provide in a traditional stair balustrade. 206F For 34 or 35 rake heights: Using two balusters on the tread, choose the 35 baluster as the first baluster and the 39 baluster as the second baluster. When using three balusters on a tread, choose the 35, 37 / 2 and 44 balusters (or use the 42 baluster if you are using / 4 balusters). The top of these balusters will need to be trimmed up to / 2 to lower the rake rail to approximately 34 and/or to fit under the rail. Balcony Balusters Choose the 35, 37 / 2 or 39 balusters depending upon the height you would like to achieve on the balcony. Remember that a 35 baluster will achieve a balcony height of 36 and is code compliant in most areas. Starting Fitting Balusters When using / 4 balusters and for 34 and 35 rake heights, use 42 balusters under volutes and turnouts. When using 3 / 4 balusters and for 34 and 35 rake heights, use the 44 balusters under climbing volutes, regular volutes and turnouts. 3 - l e n g t h S y s t e m Available in 34, 38 and 42 lengths. The 3-length System aligns the bottom baluster squares with the rake of the rail. For 34 to 38 rake heights and two balusters per tread: For 34 to 35 rake heights, use a 34 first baluster and a 38 second baluster. For 35 to 38 rake heights, use a 38 first baluster and a 42 second baluster. For 34 to 38 rake heights and three balusters per tread: For 34 to 35 rake heights, use a 34 first baluster, a 38 second baluster and a 42 third baluster. For 35 rake heights, use a 38 first baluster, and 42 second and third balusters. When installing three balusters on a tread and using the 3-length System, at least two of the bottom baluster squares will need to be trimmed for proper alignment. Warning: At a 35 to 38 rake height, the 42 baluster may not be long enough to use under gooseneck fittings. Please note that these balusters are designed to be cut at the bottom when installed. 5300 Rake Rake Angle Balcony Baluster Use 38 balusters for 36 balcony rail heights and 42 balusters for 42 balcony rail heights. Starting Fitting Baluster For 34 to 36 rake heights, use 42 balusters under the volute and 42 balusters under turnouts. Climbing volutes require 42 balusters. 67
ARCHITECTURALLY CORRECT STAIRWAYS O v e r - t h e - P o s t N e w e l s Volute Newel with a Dowel Bottom This starting newel is used on a starting step when the installer of the stair system prefers this method of installation. These newels are available with a removable dowel, allowing the installer to shorten the block on the newel if a shorter rake rail height is desired. The longest volute newel is used for 34 rake rail heights. Turnout Newel with a Dowel Bottom Turnout newels are available only in the Colonial Collection. Use this starting newel on a starting step when the installer prefers this method of installation. The newels come with a removable dowel, allowing the installer to lower the rake rail height if desired. The longest turnout newel is used for 34 rake rail heights. Universal Newel (43 long) Square Bottom This newel may be used on a starting step under a volute or turnout fitting and when the installer prefers to install Square Bottom newels. This newel also will allow the installer to vary the installation rake rail height easier than a volute newel. Also, use this newel on level runs or balconies where the installation is flush mounted or a one-rise drape is desired. Universal Newel (48 long) Choose this newel for the first floor or starting newel when a starting step is not being used, the rake rail height is 34 and a starting easing is being used. This newel also may be used when a longer drape is desired on a level run balcony. Intermediate Newel (56 or 58 long) Choose this newel for the intermediate landing newel and where long drapes are desired on a level run or balcony. Winder Newel (72 long) Use this newel on winder treads or pie-shaped treads at the intermediate landing. This newel also may be used at the intermediate landing when a newel drop is being used or a long drape is desired. P o s t - t o - P o s t N e w e l s Universal Newel (48 long with a 5 Top Block) Choose this newel for a starting newel or first floor newel when your rake rail height is less than 33. This newel also can be used for level run or balcony installations when a 5 top block newel is desired. Universal Newel (54 or 56 long with a 5 Top Block) Choose this newel when your rake rail height is 34 or higher. This newel also may be used when fittings are used to gooseneck into the second floor newel or balcony newel. In addition, use this newel at the intermediate landing when a 5 top block newel and a gooseneck fitting are being used and the newel will not be draped over more than one rise. This newel also may be used as a level run or balcony newel when a longer drape is desired. Intermediate Landing Newel (4 / 2 Top Block) Choose the longest 4 / 2 newel for all intermediate landings where fittings will not be used, and more than one rise is being draped. Only one intermediate newel is available in most collections. Intermediate Landing Newel (4 / 2 Top Block) Choose the shortest 4 / 2 newel for all intermediate landings where fittings will not be used and the newel will be face mounted to the first rise of the second flight of steps. This newel is not available in all collections. Second-floor Landing Newel ( Top Block) Choose this newel when the installation calls for a newel at the second floor or balcony and fittings will not be used. Winder Newel (5 Top Block) Choose the longest 5 top block newel when the installation has winder or pie-shaped treads at the intermediate landing. This newel also may be used at the intermediate landing when a newel drop is being used. 68
O v e r - t h e - P o s t T a k e - o f f G u i d e The following information will help you begin installation of an Over-the-Post Stair System, which is only for interior use. This list will allow the flexibility to comply with most building codes related to baluster spacing and handrail height. Always consult your local building codes before starting installation.. Starting Step: To be used with volute and turnout fittings. Length is determined from outside finished wall to outside finished wall. (see page 59) 2. Treads: Excluding the starting step, choose one tread for each step. Open-sided stairs require mitered return treads. Treads are available mitered on one side or both sides. For open-onone-side stairs, add /8 to the measured length between the finished walls and order the next longest standard length of tread. (see page 59) 3. Risers: The required number of risers will be one more than the number of treads chosen in No. 2. Do not choose a riser for the starting step. (see page 60) 4. Skirtboards: Skirtboards are used on both sides of the stairs, regardless of whether they are open or enclosed. Allow 3 per tread and round up to either 2 or 6 length. (Note, Crown Heritage Skirtboards are only available in 2 and 6 lengths) (see page 60) 5. Landing Tread: Choose enough landing tread for all landings and balconies. 5 /4 landing tread is used with 3 /2 newels. 3 /4 landing tread may be used with 3 newels. (page 60) 6. Cove Moulding: Choose enough footage to go under all landing tread and tread nosing, including tread returns. (page 6) 7. Starting Fitting: Choose from volute, turnout or starting easing. (pages 55-56) 8. Starting Newel: Choose either a volute newel or the shortest universal newel for the first floor. (pages 33-36, 39-53) 9. Intermediate Newel: Choose the 56 intermediate landing newel for two-rise applications where the newel will drape two rises. Choose the 72 newel if more than two rises are being draped. If the intermediate newel will not be draped, but is face mounted, the 48 newel may be used. (pages 33-36, 39-53) 0. Balcony Newel: Choose the shortest universal newel for flush mount installations or the 48 length when the newel will be draped or mounted below the floor surface. (pages 33-36, 39-53). Level Run: A universal newel should be used at least every eight feet of balcony run. At the corner of the balcony, use a quarter-turn cap over each newel. The 43 universal newel may be used for flush mounts. The 48 universal newel should be used if a draped installation is desired. (pages 33-36, 39-53) 2. Half Newel or Rosette: For the best installation, choose a half newel, which matches the other newels on the job. Alternately, choose a round rosette for all level rail connections and an oval rosette for all angle rail connections. (page 6) 3. Hardware: For a sturdy installation, choose the patented *Newel Mounting Kit #3072. Choose the appropriate newel mounting hardware for each newel post. (pages 63-64) 4. Balusters for Volutes and Turnouts: Four or six /4 balusters and four or five 3 /4 balusters are required under the volute. Turnouts require two /4 and one 3 /4 balusters. For 30 *Patent: US 6,769,22B 69 rake heights use 38 or 37 /2 balusters under the volute and use a 42 or 44 baluster under turnouts. For 34 rake heights, use a 42 baluster under volutes and turnouts. When using /4 balusters, choose the 42 baluster. When using 3 /4 balusters, choose the 44 baluster. Warning: Rake heights over 35 may result in the balusters not being long enough. (pages 39-55) 5. Balusters for Starting Easing With Cap: Use one 38 or 39 baluster under a starting easing if your rake height is 30. Use a 42 baluster if your rake rail height is 34. (pages 39-53) 6. Rake Balusters for 34 Rake Heights (3-length System): When using two balusters per tread, use the 34 baluster as the first baluster and the 38 baluster as the second baluster. When using three balusters on a tread, use the 34 baluster as the first baluster, a 38 second baluster and a 42 third baluster on the tread. The 38 and 42 balusters will require the bottom of the baluster to be trimmed. (page 67) 7. Rake Balusters for 34 Rake Heights (the Crown System): When using two balusters per tread, use the 35 baluster as the first baluster and the 39 baluster as the second baluster. When using /4 balusters, choose the 35, 37 and 42 balusters unless you have chosen the 506 then use the 36, 39 and 42 balusters. When using 3 /4 balusters, choose the 35, 37 and 44 balusters. The Crown System balusters are designed to be trimmed at the top of the balusters. (page 67) 8. Fittings for Landings: Choose the correct fitting for each newel. Half newels require an opening cap, which will be cut on the job. (pages 55-56) 9. Handrail: Choose the appropriate lineal footage of handrail. 3 per step is the average length needed. Our handrail comes factory shrink-wrapped to ensure the product stays clean and remains undamaged. Please note that the best installation method for attaching a rail to a rail or a rail to a fitting is to use the patent-pending EasAlign system from Crown Heritage. (page 57), (page 59 for handrails) 20. Shoerail: If shoerail is desired, then choose the appropriate lineal footage. 3 per step is the average length needed. Our shoerail comes factory shrink-wrapped to ensure the product stays clean and remains undamaged. (page 57) 2. Fillet: Fillet is shipped tacked into all plowed handrails and shoerails. (page 57) 22. Wood Plug: A wood plug is needed for each hole bored in the newel. (page 63) 23. Dowel Screw: Where the screw method of installation is being used, choose one dowel screw for each baluster except for those balusters being used in a shoerail. This is a recommended, but optional, method of installation. (page 64) 24. Bracket: If desired, choose one bracket for each tread. (page 6)
