Hammered Spindles

Spindles are the slender, vertical supports that form a railing system’s backbone. The choice of picket has a profound impact on a handrails rhythm and feel. By choosing hammered spindles from Twisted Bars, you can elevate this fundamental railing component into a defining feature of your interior or exterior staircase design.

A row of hammered spindles creates a captivating visual cadence. Where a plain bar is static, a hammered bar is alive with texture. The interplay of light across dozens of textured surfaces in a balustrade adds sophisticated energy to your deck, patio, or staircase. You can have a series of our Wavy hammered aluminum spindles on a coastal New England deck rail, their texture echoing the nearby water. At the same time, round Surface hammered spindles add a touch of industrial authenticity to a renovated loft railing in a historic city district.

Our hammered metal spindles can help your railing achieve a custom, high-end look without the need for on-site fabrication. We provide beautifully textured, weather-resistant metal components ready for your custom finish. This versatility makes our spindles the ideal choice for any regional style, such as the sun-drenched aesthetic of a Southwestern patio to the wood-and-stone palette of a Pacific Northwest retreat.

Each of our five hammered textures lends a different voice to your design:

• Surface Hammered: Delivers a powerful, rustic aesthetic with significant visual weight and depth.
• Edge Hammered: Offers a gentle, elegant texturing for a more understated and sophisticated appearance.
• Wavy Hammered: Provides a unique, wavy pattern that feels both artisanal and organic.
