A Utah Pin Top Wood Baluster is a stairway support starting with a square base, transitioning through a scotia, a torus, a stretched torus, an astragal, a stretched ogee, and ending in a tapered neck. Crafted from wood, it provides structural stability and a unique aesthetic. The sequence of shapes from the square base to the slim neck offers a compelling visual rhythm, enhancing the overall design. This style of baluster beautifully merges traditional elements with geometric diversity, perfect for a variety of architectural and interior styles.
Pin Top Utah Balusters have a width and depth of 1.75” (4.4 cm). Lengths of balusters vary depending on their placement in a balustrade, but are typically sized to match handrail heights of 34”-38” (86.4-96.5 cm).
The common standard is that the space should not allow a sphere of 4 inches (102 mm) in diameter to pass through - approximating the size of a toddler's head. The on-center spacing of thin balusters is typically 3.66” (9.3 cm) while wide balusters are spaced at 5.5” (14 cm).
