How accurate is the shopping list?

The shopping list is highly accurate, but we recommend double-checking it against your specific project. Here are a few details to keep in mind to ensure everything aligns with your needs:

  • The tool calculates for continuous railing runs, so additional posts may be necessary for separate sections.

  • It assumes one set of stairs with railing on both sides and no shared posts between horizontal and stair sections.

  • You can adjust the post count based on your unique layout. 

How do I move forward with a railing project after using the tool?

Once you've completed your design, you can use the Where to Buy or Find a Builder features to connect with local retailers or professionals to bring your project to life.
