Spiral Staircase – Charity Shop London

Whilst trawling through the internet on our daily quest for spiral staircase news (yes we do love our job) I came across an interesting blog post from Charity Shop Girl.  Her quest to find charity shop gems in London took her to ‘Fara’ in Gloucester Road SW7 where she spotted a spiral staircase we supplied -last year.  She commented;   ‘This Fara is so cute inside!  I’m a sucker for spiral staircases, so I like popping in just for the aesthetics’ – clearly a lady with good taste!!   Well thank you for the comment Charity Shop Girl and good luck hunting out those bargains.

The stair itself was a spiral staircase fully galvanised which we normally supply for external settings.  Our customer wanted a rustic / industrial feel to the flight and thought the galvanising would give that effect.  Although it was a smaller diameter we went with a centre column handrail to ease usage and stuck with vertical spindles around the perimeter in case children were to use the flight.

We reckon it looks pretty funky!!

At Complete Stair Systems we offer a complete range of stairs for your home.  From the ultra modern bespoke model to an off the shelf kit we will have a product to suit.  We offer an economical range of fully bespoke external spiral staircase suitable for both domestic and commercial usage.  Fully functional models, made to measure – whether it is providing a fire escape to an office block or a quick access route to the upper floor of an annex – which is the purpose of this particular spiral.

Supplied direct to the customer, this model provided a means of escape to the upper level of a newly created annex.  With a much smaller footprint than a conventional staircase, this snug little spiral fitted perfected in place and didn’t encroach too much into the garden area.  Being a bespoke model we were able to increase the size of the upper platform slightly to push to centre column and spiral a little further away from the building to keep a storage space underneath.

For all these stairs full AUTOCAD drawings are prepared and submitted for approval before manufacture.  This spiral was 1200mm diameter and consisted of non slip perforated steel treads with 10mm diameter vertical steel spindles.  It was supplied fully galvanised for protection against the elements.

Within this range we can also powder coat each spiral after galvanising to any colour you wish.  We can also incorporate a much larger platform creating a balcony area for those long summer nights!!

You can see other examples of this type of stair on the links below.

Supplied earlier this year, some great pictures of an external spiral staircase provided for a customer in Southampton.
Like all our larger external spirals, this one was custom made for the customer to their specific floor to floor height and requested diameter.
They also required a small balcony area at the top so we enlarged the top platform.
This particular model was made to suit a 3800mm floor to floor height which was met with 20 risers. The 1800mm diameter provided an 800mm clear tread width to comply with category B of the British standards. The top platform was 2000 x 2000mm and the deck and all the treads were constructed using our non slip perforated steel treads. All steelwork was fully galvanised.

To see a few more examples of this type of spiral in situ, please use the links below.

We can of course supply this model for commercial applications and it can be galvanised AND powder coated if desired.
