More Than a Half Century of Quality, Service & People
For more than a half century, the Fitts’ name has been associated
with quality in the woodworking industry.
Founded in 1947, in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Frank Fitts, Jr., initiated
a standard of fine craftsmanship and quality service as a manufacturer
of precision wood components. His talents as a woodsmith and his
dedication to principle became a strong foundation for what Fitts
Industries, Inc. has become today.
More than 50 years later the current Fitts family operates on those
same principles manufacturing some of the finest stair parts on the
market.
Frank Fitts, Jr. Circa 1947
Our success is based on a vertically integrated
structure that includes: the process and storage of
green lumber, on site kiln drying operations, state-ofthe-art
compu-rip operation, lathe and moulder operations
and East Coast and West Coast warehousing
facilities that effectively supply our customers.
Fitts Industries’ mission is to be a world leader in the
wood products industry. By committing to people, technology,
and a never-ending process of improvement,
we will provide our customers the highest level
of quality and service.

The Basics
Stairs are often one of the most architecturally significant features of the home, and at the same time
one of the most difficult features to design. For the novice or the beginner, there are several things to
take into consideration when choosing the correct stair system for your home:
• Is the stair ”Post-to-Post“ or “Over-the-Post”?
• What species of wood will match the consistency of the home?
• Are the stairs carpeted or bare wood?
• What turnings or newel, baluster and handrail profiles match the theme of the home?
• Most importantly – What are the local building codes regarding stairs in your area?
Post-to-Post vs. Over-the-Post
Post-to-Post Stair – Handrail runs between a series of newels.
Starting Newel
Transitional Newel
Newel w/13” face block
Landing Newel
Newel w/10” face block
Over-the-Post Stair – Handrail runs over a series of newels using a series of fittings. This design
provides the aesthetic that the handrail is continuous.
Volute Newel
Volute Fitting
Landing Newel
Gooseneck Fitting

Post-to-Post Stair with Fittings – Handrail runs between a series of newels, but often
utilizes gooseneck fittings to make handrail connections, such as changes in rake angle look effortless.

Wrought Iron Stair Parts

European Style & Elegance
For centuries, artisans have hammered and formed
wrought iron. Through the ages blacksmiths mastered
their trade to create ornate designs that became a
staple of European style and elegance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I Paint Wrought Iron Product?
Yes, you can. For interior use, we suggest using one or
two coats of lacquer or oil based paint for metal.
Can I Use Wrought Iron Product for Exterior Applications?
Cover photo and photo above furnished by
Horner Millwork, Somerset, Mass.
Product Finishes
Five Elegant Finish Styles
From Which to Choose
Yes, you can. For exterior use we suggest using two coats
of exterior, oil based, metal paint for protection from the
elements. We suggest not mounting wrought iron into
concrete or brick. These substances are porous and trap
water which can corrode iron product over time.
How Do I Cut or Trim Wrought Iron Products?
We suggest the use of a band saw with a metal cutting
blade, but any metal cutting saw will work.
Can I Replace My Wood Balusters with Wrought Iron and
Still Use the Same Piece of Handrail?
This is a bit tricky. In most cases - we say no. The layout
of the balusters is going to differ. Due to code issues like
sphere rules, and the design of the balusters you select,
layouts are going to differ - as will the holes needed to be
bored in the handrail.

Quick Installation Reference
Step 1. Bore 5/8 inch
holes in tread to accept
the baluster bases.
Step 2. Cut baluster
bases to height using a
saw with a metal cutting
blade and insert bases
into tread.
Step 3. Using the epoxy
with a hardening agent, fill
the hole surrounding the
baluster.
Step 4. Drop corresponding
1/2 inch or 9/16
inch shoe over baluster.
Step 5. Tighten the shoe
to the baluster using a
hex wrench.
Step 6. Repeat on
remaining balusters.
Step 7. All Fitts Industries,
Inc. iron balusters come
with a 1/2 inch diameter
pin. Bore 1/2 inch holes
in the handrail to accept
baluster pins.
Step 8. Apply epoxy to
all holes, limiting amount
slightly to guard against
runoff or dripping.
Step 9. Place rail onto
corresponding balusters. Fit
should be snug. If needed
lay a scrap softwood block
on the rail and gently tap
into place with a wooden
mallet.

Stair Take-Off Quick Reference
With more than 3000 parts, pieces & profiles, selection and ordering stair parts can be intimidating.
To begin the process, ask yourself a few simple questions:
1. Is the stair Post-to-Post or Over-the-Post?
2. What style of stair parts will match the architectural theme of the home?
3. What species of wood will match the continuity of the home?
4. What are my concerns relating to building codes?
Fitts Industries, Inc. has alleviated some of this guesswork for you. All of the newel heights, baluster
heights, and most of the handrail profiles will fall within the IRC 2003 building code requirements
with regards to stairs. It is however, important that you familiarize yourself with codes regarding stair
building in your locality.
As far as compiling a list of what you will need, there are several important components you will
want to pay attention to:
• Starting Steps - Starting steps are the decorative first step of a stair. With elongated
ends that imitate a bull’s nose - bullnose starting steps often support volute or turnout
newels, and volute or turnout fittings. The important measurement of a single or a
double bullnose is the dimension of the finished stringers + skirtboard + sheetrock.
• Treads - Form the stepping surface of the stair. Treads are often open sided with returned
ends or unfinished and set between a series of knee walls.
• Risers - The vertical face of a stair step.
• Handrail - Handrail is the top rail used in a balustrade system; it provides gripping
surface for support. Handrail is either straight or bending for radius curves. Handrail
comes in a variety of profiles, and most of the profiles offer fittings to provide Over-the-Post
systems.
• Moulding & Brackets - Ornamental brackets and moulding can be added to the
undersides of the treads or tread returns.
• Attaching Hardware - All Fitts Industries, Inc. fittings come with rail bolts for the
necessary connection points. You will need to determine what method of connection you
will use on your newel posts, and order the proper hardware for each post. Note that
most Fitts Industries, Inc. balusters come with a dowel pin for installation in the tread.
The next several pages will discuss newel posts, balusters, and fittings - followed by a series of
tables depicting baluster length structures. Please be aware all of Fitts Industries, Inc. newel
heights and balusters work off of a 34 - 38” rake rail height.

Newel Selection
After you have determined the species of wood you are going to use for your
staircase, and decided whether the stair is going to be carpeted, most people
select the newel profile they will use throughout the stair. To get the basics, in a
classic L-shaped stair with a landing there are three newel variations you will use:
Starting Newel
Post-to-Post
Over-the-Post
5" Face Block
Pin Top Newel
Starting Newel – Starting Easing
Volute Newel – Volute
Turnout Newel – Turnout

Baluster Selection
Fitts Industries, Inc. balusters have been designed in families, so that each newel pattern has
one or more corresponding baluster turnings that work in conjunction with the newels. Most
questions arise with what baluster length structure to use. Fitts Industries, Inc. has developed
rake rail height – with the patterns that will not only pass with building codes 4-inch sphere
rule, but will maintain architectural alignment throughout the stair.
Balusters were often aligned as either.
Traditional Tread Oriented
Rail Oriented
In many cases, the 6-inch sphere rule was minimized to a 4-inch sphere rule, certain systems
changed from a two baluster per tread to a three baluster per tread layout. Geometrically,
this changed the way the patterns would work in a Rail Oriented System. So, in June of
2001 Fitts Industries, Inc. began altering length structures so that we could provide an
architecturally correct alternative for those customers who prefer Tread Oriented Systems.

A simplified table of baluster & newel options can be found on pages 52-57.

Fitting Selection
Fittings are designed to provide the necessary changes in rake angles in handrail and provide a continuous
gripping surface throughout the stair. Fitts Industries. Inc. offers fittings in three handrail profiles: F6010, F6210,
F6310, F6910 and F6410. Fittings are designed in three major families:
Starting Fittings – The beginning of the rail gripping surface
Transition Fittings – Fittings that are trasitioning units of a rail surface
Gooseneck Fittings – Fittings used to allow for transition in height and (or) direction
in either a landing or a balcony
Fitting Characteristics
Right Hand or Left Hand – Fittings are determined to be Right Handed or Left Handed by the natural
act of ascending or climbing the stair.

Fitting with Cap – Fittings that run over a newel post have a cap to accommodate the newel post.

One Rise, Two Rise & Three Rise – In the transition of handrail, often times fittings must make changes
in height and (or) direction. The easiest way to gauge the rise of a fitting is to note how many rises intersect at a
transitioning or landing newel.
Newel
2-rise
1-rise

The Newel intersects with
One-rise. This scenario
would utilize a 1-rise

As you can see, the Newel
is intersected by two rises.
