Work on the stair railing begins!!

[ShiroKuro]

He's almost done!!! Yay!!!! He's coming back tomorrow (rather than wait until Monday) - double yay!!!
Check it out:

Did I post about the carpet on the stairs? It looks like it's going to work out, I'm very relieved!

[Big_Al]

That's looking very good. How did he fit the posts in the carpet so neatly?

That looks great! Is there handrail on the wall above where the stair railing begins? (Handrail on both sides?)

[ShiroKuro]

Thanks everyone! I’m super pleased!!

There will be. He started from the bottom, so he’s not to that point yet. I suspect he’s saved the easiest part for last.

Looks great. That post at the bottom will interfere with sliding down.

All done!!

Yay!!! Also he said he’d be finished by the 10th and he was?

It looks really good I’m so glad we didn’t do a solid wall!!!

Very nicely done! Glad he was able to work with the existing carpet. It looks almost new and it would have been a shame to have to replace it.

Congratulations. When is your move date?

[ShiroKuro]

One more picture. It fits in perfectly!!

@wtg I agree, it would have been such a waste to have to get rid of the carpet!

We’re moving In three days!!! I can’t wait!!!

[Big_Al]

Excellent. I'm glad you installed it and that it turned out so well.

Big Al

[Jodi]

Wow, that looks fantastic!

[AdagioM]

That looks perfect!

[ShiroKuro]

Thanks everyone! Yep, it couldn’t have worked out better! And I’m so glad we didn’t do an actual wall there instead, esp. given how nice the room is down there.

And I am glad we got it installed now, before we moved. It’s definitely safer, and it’s one of those things that if you didn’t do right away, it would just stay that way forever. Until someone fell off the stairs
