Open Staircase Colchester
As part of an extension our client required an open, modern staircase to access a new mezzanine level. A quarter turn staircase was supplied fitting snugly up against the adjoining wall. The staircase was constructed in beech’ parquet’ to match the floor downstairs and the wall stringer was supplied in white to further emphasise the floating feel of the cantilevered treads. As there was plenty of space and the staircase was the main flight in the property, an extra large tread width was supplied of 1050mm, and the newel posts were increased to 100 x 100mm. Landing balustrade was supplied to the mezzanine level in the same timber but we included glass infill panels to keep things nice and open.
Mezzanine Staircase
The WF staircase is a bespoke timber stair with cantilevered treads. The staircase only has a wall stringer, leaving the treads on the open side suspended in mid air! These treads are suspended by steel spindles which span upto the custom made handrail which takes the load. This load is then transferred to the newels posts at the top and bottom of the flight. It is probably the most open staircase we offer and is surprisingly economically priced when compared with other cantilevered style staircases. The stair is available in virtually any hardwood and can be configured as a straight flight, quarter or half turn, depending on the wall location.
