CUSTOM STAIRS are built to meet any diameter or height required while enabling us to diversify our product line to include a variety of creative metal products and finishes to fit any individual need or décor.
KIT STAIRS are economical, functional and adjustable! Our kit spiral stairs start as low as $795 an inexpensive alternative to our custom staircases. Designed to work in any application, from spaces as small as 42” to 72.”
Our Wood Spiral Stairs are the first to introduce a unique hidden cantilever joint, adding strength and stability to the tread assembly in one simple connection. Provides an elegant and clean look of a solid wood stair.
Exterior Welded Aluminum Stairs add the perfect finishing touch to any deck or lanai, while adding beauty and accessibility. Built to last the harshiest environments, the aluminum used will not rust or corrode.
Balusters, pickets, spindles... these are the bones of a railing system. Steel, aluminum, stainless, brass or copper in round or square bars. Use the standard railing method or invent your own distinctive panel or stair railing.Install Instructions

- See CHART "A" for minimum well opening size (Dimension" A") for your stair diameter. Determine the corner in which the stair landing will be located. Measure out from the corner, using Dimension" B", on each side and mark edge of opening. Project a perpendicular line out equal to Dimension" B" from each mark. Drop plumb bob down from intersection of the two (2) lines to floor below and mark a large X on the floor. See DETAIL "A". chart and details (pdf)
- Raise center pole and place over X on the floor making sure that center pole is over the center of the X. Mark the floor using the holes in the base plate as a template. If the floor is wood, drill pilot hole for 3/8" lag screw in floor and anchor the base plate to floor. If the floor is concrete use lag shields along with lag screws.
- A. Measure the exact floor to floor height.
B. Divide this height by number of risers to be used to obtain the actual riser height. Example: 9'0-3/4" divided by 12 risers equals 9-1/16" rise Please note, most codes have a maximum rise of 9 1/2" and require minimum headroom of 78" between the platform and the tread below. To determine the headroom, take the calculated rise times 9 and subtract 1-7/8". Example: 9-1/16" rise x 9 = 81-9/16" 81-9/16" minus 1-7/8" equals 79-11/16" (If platform covering materials are to be used -i.e., wood, tile, rubber, etc -add its thickness to 1-7/8")
C. Measure up the center pole from the floor and mark the first riser height. OPTION (Part C): If tread covering materials are to be used, i.e., wood, tile, rubber, etc. subtract the material thickness from riser height as determined in Part B. DO THIS ON TREAD #1 only. See Detail "B".
D. From the mark in Part C, mark off the required riser heights as determined in Part B.
- Slide all required treads over the center pole, stacking one on top of another. Altemate treads from one side of the pole to the other side to balance weight. Install two (2) 3/8" x 5/16" set screws loosely i~ each hub
- Slide the stair landing over the center pole and place in the corner selected in Step 1. The top offf'le hub of landing should be placed exactly on the top mark on the center pole. Level and secure the landing to the center pole with two "(2) 3/8" x 5/16" set screws and to the well opening with four (4) 3/8" x 2" lag screws and lag shields if necessary.
- Install 3/4" square metal plugs in the bottom of balusters and platfonm rail. Bolt a baluster thru the top hole in baluster to stair landing flange snugly with '/.," x 1-1/4" hex head screw, hex nut and lock washer. Raise top tread to match mark just below the platform on the center pole and bolt rear flange of tread to bottom hole of baluster with 1/4" x 1-1/4" hex head screw, hex nut and lock washer. Bolts should be installed so that nuts are on inside of tread flanges. Shift tread axially as necessary to level baluster. Secure set screws in hub.
- Repeat baluster installation process as in Step 6 above for all remaining treads. The bottom baluster is distinguished by a round flange on the bottom. Secure this baluster to the front flange of tread #1, plumb vertically and anchor to the floor with two (2) 1/4" x 1-3/4" lag screws and lag shields if necessary.
- See attached instructions for installation of Aluminum Handrail.
- Loosely attach landing rail to stair landing with 1/4" x 1-1/4" hex head screws. Mark center pole thru 7/32" hole in clip on landing rail. Remove rail, drill center pole using #19 drill and install #10 x 1/2" hex head treads cutting screw. Remove screw, re-install rail and secure with screw and bolts. 10. Re-secure all fasteners and install metal cap in top of center pole.
