Baluster Fasteners
 The exclusive Arcways metal to metal tap-loc baluster fasteners will ensure longevity, quick installation, rigidity, and clean finishing. Once finished, simply screw in the assembly. The physical size of Arcways hardware is twice that of our competitors’ fasteners.
With double-ended lags, rigidity and longevity suffer with the physical size of the lag. Installation is slow and the finish is often marred when the lag is rotated into the baluster and tread.

Return Trim
Small details such as decorative multilayered trim with profiled end on the return side of the stairway, shaped (not bent) to the proper radius, gives the tread a refined look.
The basic cove trim under the tread with a back sand return side termination, often times bent into place, lacks refinement. |

Starter Steps
Arcways starter step riser construction is meticulously formed from solid hardwood stock. In addition, our solid formed riser rotates well beyond 180 degrees, creating a mirror image of the Arcways helical volute outline above and a a smooth flat riser face.
Pressboard with a thin veneer exterior is used, often showing ripples at kerf lines. This bent riser stops at 180 degrees and does not mirror the volute above. Repair is difficult due to the sand-through ability of the veneer. |

Protectors
Arcways specially-designed, heavy-duty corrugated cardboard covering overlaps each other and creates a sleeve like barrier. This offers protection during delivery and at the jobsite.
Competitors often use plastic that’s slippery and tends to puncture and tear. This petroleum-based product is unfriendly to the environment. |
