Perfect for professional stair tread and riser restoration, these plugs are also well-suited for furniture repairs, cabinetry, or covering fastener holes in any cherry woodworking project. The minimal profile and chamfered top allow for a seamless flush finish—ideal for contemporary and traditional interior builds alike. Carpenters frequently rely on these for matching plugs in handrails or balusters, while hobbyists use them to conceal hardware in cherry bookcases or decorative boxes. For an expert touch, orient the grain direction of each plug with the stair or furniture piece for nearly invisible results after finishing.

  • Will these plugs fit standard 1/2" counterbore holes in hardwood stairs?
    Yes, the diameter and chamfer are engineered for snug, flush installation in standard-sized holes.
  • Can I stain or finish these plugs after installation?
    Absolutely—the unfinished cherry surface readily accepts stains, oils, or clear coats for a perfect color and grain match.
  • Is glue necessary for installation, or is friction fit sufficient?
    The press-fit design is typically enough, but wood glue can be added for extra security if desired.
  • Are the plugs suitable for concealed fastener applications in furniture or cabinetry?
    Yes—they’re frequently used in cabinetry and furniture for covering screws, dowel holes, or other joinery marks.
  • Do I need to sand the plug after installation?
    Very little sanding is required, as the plugs are machined flush; sand lightly for the smoothest finish before staining.
  • How consistent are the dimensions in bulk orders?
    All plugs are precision-machined to ensure reliable, repeatable sizing for large or repeat projects.
  • What’s the best tip for making repair plugs virtually invisible?
    Align the face grain of the plug with the surrounding wood and match your stain for the most discreet result.

For premium, seamless wood repairs on stairs or furniture, trust the 1/2" cherry stair plug for quality, consistency, and a flawless, near-invisible finish every time.
