Working from photographs of the existing components and architects drawings of the new staircase layout, Haldane produced drawings of each component and handrail profile before beginning the manufacturing process.
Haldane used their 5 axis machining expertise, wood turning and moulding to create the ornate 120mm square newel posts as per the existing design, including the unique ball décor top.
Haldane’s handrail expertise has been demonstrated by manufacturing and installing a bespoke profiled Iroko handrail featuring a unique tapered profile end for a 3 storey luxury home in London.
