StairSupplies offers three different types of newel post caps. Each of these options are purely decorative and it comes down to stylistic preference in which you prefer. The pyramid cap is, as the name would suggest, a triangular cap that culminates in a single point at the top of the box newel. This cap works especially well with simpler box newels, such as the plane box newels because it adds a little more visual interest. The flat cap is recommended for some of the more ornate box newel designs, as you will want the emphasis to be on the beautiful fluting, recessing, or raising on the faces of the box newel. This cap is unassuming, yet elegant as it does not take away from the rest of the box newel. And the beveled cap is a mixture between the pyramid cap and the flat cap, as it features sloping edges. This cap perfectly complements box newels that already feature some kind of rounding in the faces, such as the chamfered box newels or the fluted box newels.

Rather than having a square head at the top of the newel, it has a round peg which sits into a hole on the corresponding handrail fitting.
