Accents
Accents
Spectis accent pieces include urethane newel balls and post caps. They ship primed and are made to order.
What these accents are for
A newel ball sits on top of a newel post. A post cap covers the top of a post. The size is the width of the ball or the cap.
How to measure
Measure the top of the post. The ball or cap has to cover it. If the product says no base, it does not include a square trim under the ball. Call if the post size is not on the page.
How it is made
These are high density polyurethane. Spectis cuts, nails, and glues like wood, and the same piece is used inside and outside. It ships double primed white, ready to paint or stain. A specialty paint finish can make a primed piece look like wood. Installed correctly, it will not rot, warp, or crack.
How to install
Use PL Premium on every bedding joint and every butt joint. Other adhesives can damage the urethane. Finish nails or screws hold the piece while the adhesive cures. Adhesive, nails, and finish are sold separately. If the product or the installation steps are changed, that is on the installer.
How long it takes
Pieces are made for the order, so they are not returnable. The order goes to the Spectis plant in Manitoba the same day. Most orders ship in 2 to 3 weeks. Larger orders can take up to 4 weeks. Confirm the SKU, the size, and the quantity before you buy.
Shipping a long piece
Anything over 72 inches ships by freight. A 12 foot piece ships in a wooden crate. On a smaller order we can cut a long piece in half. The shipping prices on the site are for a commercial address. A residence costs more after checkout. Call 800-986-1250 before a large order. Shipping is often lower, and on some orders it is free.
Use PL Premium on every joint. Pieces over 7 feet ship by freight. Shop accent treatments or call 800-986-1250.
