What Users Are Saying:
- "Punch in staircase and handrail dimensions, choose the configuration, and this app saves you the tedium of calculating baluster spacing. Hallelujah." - This Old House Magazine
- "BalusterPro is an excellent app that caters to a multitude of layout demands, seamlessly transitioning from your desk to on-site work locations. And all at a fraction of the cost." - Gary Katz, Master Finish Carpenter and publisher of THISiscarpentry.com
- "BalusterPro makes building that stairway more heavenly." - homefixated.com
Instructions for Use:
BalusterPro presents calculations for six common handrail scenarios you may encounter. Begin by selecting your preferred measurement input method and baluster installation type in the settings menu. Then, use either the keypad or sliders to input measurements for 'Run Length' (the distance between newel posts) and 'Baluster Width.' Adjust the 'Balusters Needed' slider until the 'Spacing Between Balusters' complies with your specific code requirements. By tapping the view button, you can access a list detailing the centers and edges of balusters conveniently shown on one screen. Precision levels can be chosen as 1/16, 1/32, or metric on the main screen, with an option to display results down to 1/64. Additionally, tapping the 'Spacing Between Balusters' result post-calculation may allow further reduction to 1/64 for a short duration.
Explore additional construction-related apps such as StairBuilderPro for stair stringer layout assistance and TilePro for simplified tile layout planning.
