Suggestions on where to source higher end stair railing parts? Newels/Balusters/Rails

[gearhound]

I need to replace my builder grade stair railing after ripping up the carpet and putting in white oak treads/risers...threw together a quick 2x4 'temporary' newel post that has been driving my wife nuts for the past 2 years and need to finally install something proper. I've done some googling and see JMP and StairPartsUSA, but wondering if anyone on here with experience has any other options to look at?


Cheers!

Toccoa Wood Products (in Georgia, USA) has a huge selection of wood parts. Have you looked there?

If you're looking for metal balusters, House of Forgings has a good selection and great service.

They carry wood newels and handrail as well.

I made my own newels for the cost of them - needed 11 so it was worth my time and effort for the cost savings plus I got the dimensions I wanted for the proper perspective/ proportion .
