  • Dimensions:
    • Pedestal Size: 7-1/2 inches x 7-1/2 inches
    • Overall Length: 55 inches (additional lengths of 63" and 72" may be available upon request, subject to quote)

    • Main Shank: 6 inches net
    • Pedestal Height: Approximately 23 inches
    • Cap/Hat: 7" x 7" x 3" tall, pitched style
  • Construction:
    • Actual Flat Panel Design: Features true frame-and-panel construction, where panels are fitted into grooves within a stable frame, using hard 45-degree mitered corners. This traditional method enhances durability and resists moisture-related warping, unlike CNC-routed panels with rounded corners.
    • Lock Mitered Corners: Ensures no visible end grains, contributing to a seamless, elegant appearance.
    • Hollow Base Sleeve: The pedestal is hollow, facilitating easier installation and mounting.
  • Material and Finish:
    • Primed Body: The main body is primed with Sherwin-Williams primer, ready to accept oil-based or latex paint. The poplar base material is ideal for painting due to its tight grain and cost-effectiveness.
    • Special Species Trim and Cap: The trim and cap can be customized with a choice of hardwood species, including red oak, white oak, mahogany, maple, beech, hickory, birch, alder, ash, walnut, American cherry, or Brazilian cherry. These components are shipped unfinished, allowing for staining or finishing to match your design.
  • Wood Species Options:
    • The trim and cap wood species are selectable, offering flexibility to match or complement other staircase elements. Poplar is used for the primed body, while the special species trim enhances aesthetic appeal.
  • Availability:
    • Non-Stocked, Made-to-Order: This is a custom product, typically requiring a 3-4 week lead time for manufacturing and shipping, FOB Ohio.
    • Non-Returnable: As a made-to-order item, it cannot be returned or canceled once production begins.
Design and Aesthetic:
  • Style: The AFP-4092-PRSST is a massive, formal box newel post, ideal as a starting newel for a staircase but also suitable as a landing or intermediate newel. Its flat panel design adds a traditional, sophisticated look, pairing well with various balustrade systems.
  • Customization: The ability to select special species for the trim and cap allows for tailored aesthetics, whether you prefer the rich tones of mahogany or the light grain of maple. The lock mitered corners and actual flat panels elevate its craftsmanship, making it a standout feature in any staircase.
  • Versatility: Complements other Westfire box newel posts (e.g., 4075, 4091, 4375) and can be integrated into diverse staircase designs, from classic to contemporary.
Installation and Hardware:
  • Recommended Hardware:
    • 3101 Sure-Tite Newel Fastener: Ensures secure attachment.
    • 3301 Rail & Post Fastening Kit: Facilitates connection to handrails.
    • Newel Mount Block: Provides additional stability for installation.
  • Mounting: The hollow base sleeve simplifies mounting, and the included mounting block (sold separately for some models) aids in secure installation.
  • Half Newel Option: Available as a half newel for wall terminations, typically at 70% of the wholesale price.
Shipping and Warranty:
  • Shipping:
    • Shipped one newel per box, FOB Ohio, with a 3-4 week lead time for non-stocked items.
    • Freight charges are prepaid by Westfire Manufacturing (if credit is established) and added to the invoice. Customers are responsible for freight charges if the order is canceled in transit.
    • Westfire is not liable for delayed, lost, or damaged freight; claims for shortages or damage must be filed with the transportation company within one day of receipt.
  • Warranty:
    • Westfire Manufacturing warrants products to be free from defects in material and workmanship. Defective items can be exchanged or credited with prior approval.
    • Improper use voids warranties, and non-stocked items are non-returnable.
Additional Notes:
  • Lead Time: As a non-stocked, made-to-order product, expect a 3-4 week shipping timeline. Red Oak and Poplar versions of similar models (e.g., 4092 Plain) may ship faster (2-3 business days), but the ARP-4092-PRSST’s custom nature extends the timeline.
  • Care Instructions: The primed body is ready for painting, while the unfinished hardwood trim and cap should be stained or sealed to protect and enhance the wood’s natural beauty. Ensure proper surface preparation for optimal finish adhesion.
  • Applications: Ideal for high-end residential or commercial staircases where a bold, elegant newel post is desired. Its large pedestal and flat panel design make it a focal point in grand staircases.
Limitations:
  • Non-Returnable: Due to its custom nature, the AFP-4092-PRSST cannot be returned or canceled once production starts.
  • Custom Sizes: Available but require a per-job quote, which may extend lead times.
  • Freight Responsibility: Customers must verify shipment quantities upon receipt and address any claims directly with the carrier.
