Abstract
A baluster, balustrade, and method for constructing the same are provided. The balustrade includes a rail supported by one or more balusters, each baluster extending from a support surface such as one or more treads of stairs. Each baluster has an elongate member having a terminus portion and an end member that receives the terminus portion. The terminus portion is structured to be shortened, and the end member is selectively positionable on the terminus portion, such that the baluster is aesthetically configurable to accommodate stairs of varying dimensions.
