Home Improvement > Stairs > How to Install a Wood Stair Railing Kit

Learn how to replace old wrought-iron stair railings with beautiful wood banisters, balusters and railings.

Take and record measurements for the length of each required section of railing. You will measure from the wall to the rectangular face of the newel post and between the two newel posts from one interior rectangular face/surface to the other.

Use a sliding compound miter saw to make the straight cuts for the two sections of railing. You will need a handrail and a toe rail for each section.
