Iron-shaped metal modern staircase is extremely popular in the market these days with a wide selection of both traditional and contemporary designs. Durable and decorative, they can be easily painted to match the rest of the decor if needed. You can also get chrome or brushed nickel effect stair spindles for an ultra-modern feel. Glass panels can look stunning on a banister rail, and are ideal for poorly lit spaces as they allow light to flow freely around the room. For anyone looking to add a touch of contemporary glamor they can be paired with wooden or metal handrails and innovative - and even glass moves. There are two main types of railing systems: post-to-post and over-the-post. The strongest, most popular and economical design is post-to-post. In this system, the handrail runs between the new lines and is fitted to the sides of the new post with traditional mortise and tenon joints. In the over-the-post configuration, also known as the continuous railing system with modern stairs, the rail runs over the top of the new post, often ending in a decorative vortex called a volute. The design is sleeker and more detailed, but a little less robust than the post-to-post system. However, this sounds surprising and is considered a sign of quality by home buyers.
