A convenient and very easy to use calculator to obtain the spindle or baluster spacings between newel posts, or, any work which requires even spacings within a specified distance.The app uses your mobile device to obtain the slope angle automatically. Place your mobile device along the incline of the stairs and the displayed degrees by conveniently tapping the arrow button provided. This will transfer the value to the angle entry box, so no more awkward elevation measurements and spirit levels.
If you know the angle already, then you have the option to enter it manually.
Measure the diagonal distance between the newel posts along the slope of the stairs and not the horizontal distance.
When you have completed filling in the 4 entry boxes then tap on the "Calculate" button to show the results with a list of spindle positions and spacing widths adjusted for the slope.
You may need to tweak the regulation maximum spacing, defaulting at 98mm, to take into turned spindles (balusters) with tapering profiles.
It should be noted that the underlying algorithm works out best fit within a millimeter or so. Under certain circumstances you are invited to adjust the maximum regulation width slightly and recalculate to perhaps reduce by one the number of spindles. Bear in mind that the legal maximum is 100mm in the UK. or usually 4 inches in the USA .

As a carpenter for 40+ years, I have always relied on a proven formula I learned as an apprentice. Which can take upto 20mins to calculate spacings manually, particularly on the rake of the stairs. I heard about this app a while ago, but stubbornly resisted. I was persuaded to try this app, and was pleasantly surprised , it reduced this task to under 5 mins, and works every time, whatever size run I need to install 😃 . What a clever handy tool to have. I am now forever converted. 👌

Best app for ers!!!! Price is worth it. Its below £1 and safe my £30 straight away. As usual takes for my around 1h to calculate and mark spindles and spacing. Now its takes my 5min and everything perfect!!! What a good buy,why I found this app just now????!!! Thanks! Brilliant!! Buy! Buy! Buy!

I think the app needs an update. Its not giving correct measurements lately.

Used for the first time today and was left with a 40mm gap at the end so had to redo calculations myself
