The 83mm Advantage: Space-Saving & Heritage Matching
The 83mm profile is slightly slimmer than the modern 90mm industry standard. It is the traditional dimension found in many historic and period UK properties, making these posts the absolute ideal choice for retrofitting existing staircases, replacing legacy timber, or matching original base blocks without needing to modify your stringers.
Because they carry a smaller footprint, 83mm newels are also highly recommended for narrower stair flights, cottage renovations, and loft conversions where maximizing physical walking space is a top priority.
Timber Specification
Machined from prime, knot-free White Oak, they sacrifice none of the structural rigidity required to anchor your balustrade safely. The timber is supplied unfinished, sanded to a smooth 180-grit, ready to accept your chosen hardwax oil, stain, or lacquer.
