Carriage House
http://www.svdesign.com

The complete renovation of this turn of the century Carriage House preserved the integrity of the original scale and age of the structure, while enhancing its livability. Every surface was thoughtfully preserved, replaced or reinvented throughout. Landscaping was added to connect the home comfortably to its grounds. Furniture and furnishings were selected to work in harmony with the architecture and to create a timeless and gracious place to call home.

Siemasko + Verbridge Thanks for the follow up question Bhuwan Ghimire. The newel post at the bottom is roughly 6-1/2" and the one higher up is roughly 5-1/2".

Siemasko + Verbridge Thanks for your interest, but these are the only photos we have of the stair case and railing. The front view of the newel is the same as the side view.

Siemasko + Verbridge Thanks for your inquiry. The materials for the newels is cherry. The size of the smaller newel is 5"x5" and the larger newel is 7"x7". Hope that helps.

Carolyn Albert-Kincl Design Here in Texas I believe railings cannot have an opening larger than 4". It's certainly lovely!

Siemasko + Verbridge Thanks for the question. At the time this railing was constructed it was compliant with requisite sphere according to the Mass Code.

does this railing meet most state codes--alabama? »

DeWitt Architects It appears that no, it would not comply with the 2009 International Residential Code that Alabama uses. It looks like it fails at the 4”diam ball pass max opening test and maybe the 6" inch ball at the riser tread triangle.

Siemasko + Verbridge Thanks for the info DeWitt Architects. This is an older project of ours and at the time it met the Massachusetts state code.

where to get this railing ? »

Marie Meko, Allied ASID I think it custom made.

Siemasko + Verbridge Yes, that is correct! The railing was custom made, however it could probably be recreated by any iron/metal fabrication company.
