Hey guys, I have a loose Newel post at the top my stairs. It is not hollow so I'm trying to determine how it's secured in place. I have a baby gate pushing against it which I'm sure has mad the problem worse, but I'm not sure how to tighten it since it has a piece that comes down below the floor level of the 2nd floor. Do u think it is a washer and nut under the floor? I'm not sure how I'd get to it if so. Anyone else have any ideas? It is a 100 year old house in iowa photo attached.
