Custom Sizes & Historic Replications
When replacing balusters on historic homes and buildings, it is not uncommon for it to be difficult - if not impossible - to find a baluster design
that matches exactly.
We understand that maintaining the architectural integrity - the history - of your home
or commercial space is important. As such, Brockwell Incorporated specializes in providing you with replications of your existing baluster
designs. Contact a Brockwell associate today to discuss your project and how we may assist you.
TEXTURES & COLORS
Our synthetic Classic Stone balusters are available in six (6) distinct colors with either a Textured or a Smooth
finish. Each of our cast balusters is comprised of UV inhibited color pigments, Calcium Carbonate filler, and
polyester resin which results in a hollow, highly durable baluster that possesses a natural stone-like feel and
appearance, minus the excessive weight of its natural counterpart.
** We can also substitute the Calcium Carbonate filler with our lightweight filler to reduce the standard
weight of each baluster by 25%. Please specify this with your Brockwell associate.

Our Top & Bottom Railings
Are made from the same pre-finished, synthetic stone material as our balusters. The end product is a complete balustrade system that is well-constructed and structural.
We have a wide selection of top and bottom railing widths – ranging from 4" to 10" – which allows you to select the baluster design that best fits your project's style. While we are able to offer you rail lengths in 1' increments, many of our railings can span up to 20' without obstruction – which helps reduce the overall installation time.
