A low banister is at the stair level.
A high banister is taller, coming between a human 28mm miniature's waist and chest.
The high banister allows for a lock to be used on the front and back. The low banister does not have room for the port.
Newel posts use the same dimensions as an O-Column but can vary in height as long as it can accommodate a port for the lock. Here are the newel posts and a AS-Floor. The AS-Floor is used in the space between the two newel posts in the example.
The example shows how the stairs, banisters, and newel posts can be combined to make fancier stairways. The newel posts could be designed into the banisters, but then they would always be present when stacking the stairs. I like having them separate so I can have the option to use them or not.
Here are stacked stairs with newel posts on the far ends of the stairs.
Here are stacked stairs with newel posts between the stair pieces.
Of course, with this terrain being OpenLOCK compatible, other options are available. For example, you could use low walls in place of the newel posts.
