Zip Clip Shoes for 1/2" Hollow Iron Balusters

Quality and service

The zip clip shoes were sturdy and of good metal quantity, better than the plastic type type. Delivery time was good. The only issue was I could not find the angle (45degree) zip clip and shoe on the web site even though they sold it. I got a link to it from one of their rep who was quick to answer and helpful. I will be shopping there again.

Great product!

Easy to install and looks great!

Balusters for my log cabin

The balusters and zip-clips were delivered in a timely manner. The balusters were easy to cut to the appropriate length with my compact cut-off tool. The flat zip clips were easy to install, not so for the angled zip clips. When researching I failed to notice that the angled zip clips are for a stair with an inclined of 35-37 degrees (my stairs are 45 degrees): I painted black the footings so that they did not shine under the gap. The screw that connects the baluster's holder to the footing is in the way: if you remove it, you have to pay attention to the tiny washer (I lost the first. Fortunately I had ordered and extra package of zip clips for spare parts). I replaced all the provided screws with self driving screws: they did not strip and allowed me to install the zip clip where I could not reach with the drill to predrill the hole. I am pleased with the look of the finished project.
