This is not what I would call "easy to install" (like the description says.) I'm not a contractor, just an average jack of all trades DIYer, and it took me quite a while (2 ish hours) to space out, measure, cut, measure again, cut again, measure again, cut again, until I got them just right- parallel and evenly spaced.There is no guide, jig, template, etc included, and there can't be, because stairways aren't standard. You get a box of loose spindles, and you have to do all the figuring yourself. To be fair, I did not read a single article or watch a single instructional video. There are probably easier ways to do it than what I did. The instructions included are a joke. They say "cut them, and screw them in." Ok, thanks, great. I'm not trying to discourage anyone from DIYing these, just be prepared. You have to be pretty good at precision, angles, and have some patience.The quality of the actual item is very nice. Photo coming soon.
