The machined top and bottom ends are designed to accept standard newel cap and base fittings, which should be secured using appropriate wood adhesive and fixings suitable for the substrate. If left unfinished, apply a suitable primer, paint, or stain promptly to protect the timber and reduce the risk of movement after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a top and bottom newel turn post used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA top and bottom newel turn post is used where a staircase changes direction by 90 degrees, typically at a landing or where two flights meet.
