5 reasons to buy a one-piece spiral stair

Spiral stairs offer many benefits over other staircase designs:

  1. Access: Obviously, the purpose of any stairway is access to another level. When traditional stairs won’t fit and a ladder won’t do, spiral stairs provide access to all kinds of spaces—lofts, attics, back bedrooms, decks, interior and exterior balconies, space over the garage and more.

  2. Space: Spiral stairs make the most of tight spaces. Stairs can be customized in height, width and rotation to allow you to control the entry and exit points. They can built into a hole in the floor, in a corner, or on the exterior.

  3. Design: With its graceful, sweeping curves and ornamental metalwork, a spiral stairway is a thing of beauty forever. A spiral stairway serves countless uses but above all, it makes a dramatic statement. Stairs can be customized to coordinate with a traditional design, modern ones and everything in between. Some homeowners choose to add wood treads for an even more distinctive look. Railings can be fabricated to match a spiral perfectly for a cohesive look.

  4. Visibility: Because spirals made of metal offer an open stair effect without risers, they are a popular choice on lake homes with narrow lakefront access because they don’t obscure the view. An interior spiral can even be placed in front of a window so as not to interfere with natural light in the room.

  5. Stability: A custom-built metal stair is fabricated into one piece offering more strength than kit spirals. The spiral is very solid to walk on and requires no maintenance. Custom spirals require no assembly, and they can be installed in less than an hour.
