Central-stringer stairs

One steel line, steps that seem to float.

The central stringer is a steel flat bar carrying every step: the staircase feels lighter and frees the floor. We calculate the walking line, going and riser for comfortable use, then fit the solid wood to the millimetre.

Questions

What to know before ordering.

Delivery, fitting, care: the answers the workshop hears most often.

Does a central stringer fit every stairwell?

It needs a stairwell at least 70 cm wide and a solid upper anchorage. For a narrow opening or load-bearing wall, we study a side stringer or a quarter-turn stair.

Which wood should I choose for the steps?

Oak is the most stable and hard-wearing. Walnut brings a warmer tone, beech is more economical and pine suits secondary use.

Can the steps be lit or motorised?

LED nosing lighting is wired into the stringer before welding. Motorisation makes no sense on this type of stair, but a safety switch can be added.

Is the staircase delivered assembled?

It arrives in two or three bolt-ready sections with anchors. On-site assembly takes one day; workshop fitting is offered as an option.
