Bespoke Spiral Staircase Pictures - Chichester

Some stunning pictures of a bespoke spiral staircase supplied to a customer in Chichester.

This model has ‘chunky’ treads produced in walnut which box in the steel tread support.  Our customer opted for simply powder coated steel spindles and handrail which was continued around the opening upstairs.  Also supplied was a matching Walnut apron and Walnut floor rail for the landing balustrade.

This is a domestic spiral staircase providing access to one room.  It was 1600mm diameter and spanning a floor to floor height of 2560mm.

This spiral staircase is bespoke and therefore can be produced with any type of timber treads, the centre column can be powder coated any colour and the balustrade can be stainless steel instead.  Anything else - please ask!!!

Spiral Staircase photos

As we have been neglecting our news section for a little while we have built up a back log of recently completed staircase pictures to display.  From now on we will try to put up at least one a week.

 

Starting with this model 71 spiral which was installed in Yorkshire at the end of last year.  The customer was renovating an annex and required access to a mezzanine level in the roof.  A spiral was the only real option  as the exit point upstairs had to be directly under the apex of the roof.

The diameter of this model was 1600mm and it was spanning a floor to floor height of just over 2600mm.  The model 71 spiral always has a stainless centre column and spindles and on this occasion our customer selected beechwood treads which were stained ‘walnut’ in the factory.  Along with the spiral, 4.5m of matching landing balustrade was supplied for installation across the front of the mezz deck.

The model 71 is a bespoke spiral staircase.  It is available in diameters up to 2.4m and can be manufactured with a variety of timber treads – Oak, Ash, Maple, Beech and Larch. The newel posts and handrail are either timber to match the treads or stainless steel (click to view picture of this option).

Homebuilding Show Review

Filed under: Staircase — Tags: , , , — Derrick @ 5:14 pm

It has been a few weeks now since the show in Birmingham but just thought I would post some comments.
Although we had a very small stand in an ‘on paper’ bad position it was pretty succesful. We were situated near the toilets / food hall and the seminar theatres so got a fair amount of passing trade. Although we signed up too late to get into the showguide we had plenty of interest and have spent the last two weeks quoting solidly.
We do love talking about staircases and we did just that for four whole days!!!

Bespoke Spiral Stair - Winchester

Earlier this year we secured the contract to supply a large bespoke spiral staircase as part of a church hall renovation near Winchester in Hampshire.  It was to become a new domestic dwelling with a large spiral stair rising from the modern kitchen to the upper level.

We now have some pictures -

Spiral Staircase with Walnut Treads

This model has Walnut treads and an external stringer wrapping around the circumference emphasizing the swoop of the spiral.

This spiral staircase was powder coated black in the factory to match the Kitchen finish.

This spiral staircase was custom made for our client but is from our bespoke range of spirals which are all based on the same ’structure’ then personalised with types of treads, balustrade, height, diameter and colour.
You can see further examples at the bottom of this post-
As normal, to work out a price we need the floor to floor height and diameter.  Plus an idea of the type of treads and balustrade you would like.

SPIRAL STAIRCASE

Model 71 Spiral Staircase

Model 71 Spiral Staircase

Pictures here of our bespoke spiral staircase called the model 71. 

This model was installed last month in Preston.  It has beech treads and a stainless steel centre column, handrail, newel posts and spindles.  The customer also purchased some matching landing balustrade across their opening at first floor level.  This particular model was designed to be the main stair in the house so was manufactured with a 1900mm diameter to get the required 800mm clear tread width.

This model is also available with oak / ash / birch treads and can also be manufactured with a timber handrail.

Have a look at the full product details - http://www.completestairsystems.co.uk/Model_71.html

For a price, simply contact the office with a floor to floor height, diameter and the type of timber treads you would like.
