Please see below for details of what is included in the design service.

THE DESIGN PROCESS – HOW DOES IT WORK?

To design a custom cantilevered staircase, we will require you to submit some basic dimensions along with your enquiry to help smoothen out the design process.

  • Floor to Floor dimension – the distance between finished surfaces on the levels the staircase is going to connect
  • Staircase Width – the distance from the finished interior wall to the balustrade
  • Reinforced Wall Detail – thickness of the wall and ideally rebar locations to avoid a clash with the fixings
  • Interior Wall Detail – type of interior wall finish, and the clearance between structural wall and interior finish

These are shown in the drawing below, and explained in our design tutorial.

DESIGN PROCESS – HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?

The design process is divided into three phases:

 

Phase 1 – Initial design concept

Phase 2 – Revised detailed design

Phase 3 – Final drawings for manufacture

 

Each phase will take approximately 3-5 working days to finalise.

Revision of design is carried out after phase 1 and phase 2, meaning two revisions are included as standard.

Any further revisions will be chargeable at £50 GBP per revision.
