Notes;
This staircase is made from a standard construction, because of the overall width of the staircase having to be 1598mm the width of the first and last flight had to be 770mm. Although these widths could be slightly bigger is a single post was used, however using a single post doesn’t always comply to building regulations as the treads can end up being too close together.
Even though the posts were not required there has to be some sort of post for the kite winders to go into if theres no support from walls on the inside.
Specification;
- Strings - Pine (220x32mm)
- Treads - Pine (22mm)
- Risers - Pine Veneered MDF (12mm)
- Posts - Pine, Bases (90x90mm)

We also offer other staircase layouts, these include, paddle stairs, S-shape stairs, T-shape stairs or stairs with three or more turns. We also offer stairs suitable for commercial buildings which are wider and made from more substantial materials than domestic staircases.
Styles & Materials
Construction Methods:
All layouts of staircases can be constructed in different ways which will effect the final finish, these include:
- Open riser construction; this is where the risers are left open with either a timber strip or metal bar built in to comply to regulations.
- Cut string construction; where the sides of the strings are cut away so the treads can be seen, this can either be done in a modern or traditional way.
Materials:
The materials used on your staircase will have a dramatic effect on how they look, most stairs will use the following materials.
- Pine; all our stairs are manufactured from high quality furniture grade pine, we do not use any whitewood.
- White Oak; we can manufacture all or part(s) of your staircase from premium White Oak, to give that stunning finish.
- Glass; we offer stairs with glass balustrade, either as small panels or large panels, secured with brackets or by embedding with a groove.
