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 be-tween 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 hand-rail 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).

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.

STAIR PART TERMSSTAIR PART TERMS ILLUSTRATED AND DEFINED

29

1. StartingStep: To be used with volute and turnout fittings. Length is determined from outside finished wall to outside finished wall.

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-on-one-side stairs, add 1 1/8” to the measured length between the finished walls and order the next longest standard length of tread.

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.

4. Skirtboards:Skirtboards are used on both sides of the stairs, regardless of whether they are open or enclosed. Allow 13” per tread and round up to either 12’ or 16’ length. (Note, Crown Heritage Skirtboards are only available in 12’ and 16’ lengths)

5. LandingTread: Choose enough landing tread for all landings and balconies. 5 1/4” landing tread is used with 3 1/2” newels. 3 1/4” landing tread may be used with 3” newels.

6. CoveMoulding: Choose enough footage to go under all land-ing tread and tread nosing, including tread returns.

7. StartingFitting: Choose from volute, turnout or starting easing.

8. StartingNewel: Choose either a volute newel or the shortest universal newel for the first floor.

9. IntermediateNewel: 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.

10. BalconyNewel: 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.

11. LevelRun: 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.

12. HalfNewelorRosette: 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.

13. Hardware:For a sturdy installation, choose the patented *Newel Mounting Kit #3072. Choose the appropriate newel mounting hardware for each newel post.

14. BalustersforVolutesandTurnouts: Four or six 11/4” balusters and four or five 1 3/4” balusters are required under the volute. Turnouts require two 1 1/4” and one 1 3/4” balusters. For 30” rake heights use 38” or 37 1/2” 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 1 1/4” balusters, choose the 42” baluster. When using 1 3/4” bal-usters, choose the 44” baluster. Warning: Rake heights over 35” may result in the balusters not being long enough.

15. BalustersforStartingEasingWithCap: 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”.

16. RakeBalustersfor34”RakeHeights(3-lengthSystem):

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 bal-uster on the tread. The 38” and 42” balusters will require the bottom of the baluster to be trimmed.

17. RakeBalustersfor34”RakeHeights(theCrownSystem): When using two balusters per tread, use the 35” baluster as the first baluster and the 39” baluster as the second baluster. When using 1 1/4” balusters, choose the 35”, 37” and 42” balus-ters unless you have chosen the 5016—then use the 36”, 39” and 42” balusters. When using 1 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.

18. FittingsforLandings: Choose the correct fitting for each newel. Half newels require an opening cap, which will be cut on the job.

19. Handrail: Choose the appropriate lineal footage of handrail. 13” 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.

20. Shoerail:If shoerail is desired, then choose the appropriate lineal footage. 13” per step is the average length needed. Our shoerail comes factory shrink-wrapped to ensure the product stays clean and remains undamaged.

21. Fillet: Fillet is shipped tackedinto all plowed handrails and shoerails.

22. WoodPlug: A 1” wood plug is needed for each hole bored in the newel.

23. DowelScrew: 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.

24. Bracket: If desired, choose one bracket for each tread.
