Newel Base

A newel base is the lower section of a newel post, forming the essential foundation of a staircase’s main support pillar. Positioned on the floor or stair tread, the newel base anchors the post securely in place, ensuring strength, stability and long‑lasting performance. By supporting the load and stress placed on the staircase — especially at turns, landings and end points — the newel base plays a crucial role in keeping the entire balustrade system safe and structurally sound.
