Start with the layout of the flight. Any turn can be made with a flat landing or with winders.

Not sure of your sizes? Put in your best guess. We can come out and measure, free of charge depending on location, and confirm every size before anything is made. You will also need 2m headroom above the stairs, which we check on the measure.
Pick your timber
Mix and match. Oak treads on white primed strings ready for painting is a popular combination.
Straight treads and landings
Winder treads
Strings
Risers
Open risers must not leave a gap a 100mm sphere can pass through. We will advise on the right detail when we measure.
Design the balustrade
Left and right are as you look up the stairs from the bottom step.
Open sides
Every side of every flight and turn can be a wall, a wall with a handrail, or open with balustrade. Tap a side on the plan to change it. Picking an option above starts again from that layout.
Pick the timber for each part. Want something not listed? Put it in the notes when you send your design.

We place a post at each end of a run of balustrade and at every turn. On this step the plan shows a dashed square at every riser on both sides, wall side included: tap one to add a post there, or tap a solid square to take one away.
