How to Replace Wood Balusters with Iron Balusters · Step 4 of 5
In this video
With the wooden components cut and prepared, proceed to permanently install the iron balusters. Insert each baluster into its designated pre-drilled hole in the bottom shoe rail or tread. Then, align the top of the baluster with the handrail. Using a drill/driver, secure the balusters into place. This typically involves using specialized baluster shoes (small decorative pieces that cover the top and bottom holes) and fastening them with screws or epoxy. Ensure a strong, secure connection to prevent any wobbling or movement. The video shows workers using drills and making adjustments as they fasten the balusters.
