Spindle log railing is a custom cedar for decks, porches, lofts, new construction, and log homes. We never use turned or machined logs in creating our natural cedar log railing. Each log is hand-selected and peeled before it is crafted using our on-center tenon process. This ensures that every railing section is unique and beautiful, just as nature intended.
Custom CNC-machined cedar log railing with metal inset panels. We can precisely cut natural log sections to fit a wide variety of different panels for any deck, interior railing, or porch space. By using modern CNC machining in this process, we can ensure that although the logs may have a wide variety of shapes and sizes, the panels will always have a great fit.
Log railing with stairs can be built for angles up to 37 degrees and any stair length. All of our railings meet commercial code, and we can customize the newel posts to fit a wide variety of applications. We believe that stair railing should be both beautiful and secure, so we go the extra mile to ensure that our stair railing is strong and beautiful.
The Strength and Beauty of White Cedar
White Cedar naturally resists rot and stands up to harsh Midwest weather, making it a smart choice for porches, decks, and walkways. In Minnesota and Wisconsin, where outdoor materials wear down fast, White Cedar holds strong. Whether for interior railings, outdoor projects, or log furniture, White Cedar remains a trusted, long-lasting option.
