Case Studies - T Shaped Oak Staircase
REF: 5648-twamley
3D Model;
Notes;
This T Shaped stair had a different total floor height to the left and to the right, which meant the bottom section of each stair had to have a different individual rise to the top sections of the stair so that the treads lined up perfectly. The stair also went underneath a beam which is why The post was fitted in the middle.
This is an extremely unusual staircase but was the only option to fit in the space available, tkstairs specialise in manufacturing one off and unusual staircases and are happy to help on projects such as this.

Popular Staircase Layouts
Straight Staircases:
Straight staircases have no turns in them.
Quarter Turn Staircases:
These have a single turn, turning left or right, which can be either a landing or kite winder.
Half Turn Staircases:
These have two turns, left or right. Using kite winders, landings or a half landing.
For straight stairs, quarter turn stairs (single turn) or half turn staircases (two turns), these can be ordered on our website and are available for fast delivery.
Paddle Staircases:
Also known as space saver or loft staircases, these are half the length of a normal staircase but can only be used in certain scenarios.
Other Layouts:
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.
