The story
This one is a period restoration — new construction, built to look like it had always been there. The house was the former dean's residence at Centenary College in Hackettstown, NJ, and it burnt down. The stair you see here was built new for the rebuild, to the home's era.
Calling it a railing replacement would undersell what's in these photos. Turned white balusters, a stained oak over-the-post handrail running to wall brackets, curved starter treads at the base — and look past the stair: stained glass at the landing, paneled wainscot, a parquet border in the foyer. The stair had to belong to that house.
Every part was cut and fit in our Whitehall shop.
“Nick and the team at Snyder Stairs did a wonderful job. On time and on budget. They were very easy to work with and provided us with a beautiful stair.”
