Black Metal Spindles Glass Oak Stair Parts

Customer Staircase Makeovers: Before and After with Shaw Stairs

At Shaw Stairs, we love seeing how our stair parts help transform ordinary staircases into stunning features. A staircase refurbishment doesn’t always require a full rebuild. Often, just updating the spindles, handrails or newel posts can completely change the look of a home.

Here we share some of our favourite customer staircase makeovers, from customers who have used our products to bring their ideas to life.

A Modern Touch with Black Metal Spindles

One of the most popular upgrades our customers choose is replacing dated timber spindles with black metal designs. The difference is immediate, the clean lines and bold colour instantly modernise the hallway, especially when paired with oak handrails and baserails.

“We replaced our old white spindles with the black rectangle design from Shaw Stairs, and it completely transformed the space. It feels modern but still fits the style of our home.” – Customer review

Bright and Open with Glass Panels

Customers looking for light and space often turn to glass staircase panels. The results speak for themselves, the hallway feels brighter, more open, and contemporary.

“We chose 8mm glass panels with white handrails and baserails. The light now flows through the entire ground floor, it’s made such a difference.” – Homeowner in Cheshire

Glass doesn’t just modernise a home; it also adds value and a sense of luxury that never goes unnoticed.

Warmth and Character with Oak Stair Parts

For those wanting a timeless look, oak remains a favourite. Many customers refurbish by changing only the key features, such as the handrail, newel caps and spindles to oak, instantly refreshing the entire staircase.

“We wanted something that would last, so we went for oak throughout. It’s so solid and gives the hallway a lovely warm tone.” – Joiner, Staffordshire

Oak’s durability and rich finish make it one of the most reliable long-term choices for busy households.
