Installing a new staircase can help you maximise the space inside your business premises; helping you access currently unused areas. Whether installed as part of an extension project or in conjunction with mezzanine flooring, a steel staircase, rather than a traditional timber or concrete one, offers a robust and cost-effective solution. Steel staircases offer several advantages so we thought we’d run through some of the main benefits.

Fuss-free installation and lower costs

The fabrication process used to manufacture steel staircases is very flexible which means that they can be designed and built to fit buildings of any size or shape. Furthermore, once a steel staircase has been built, the installation process is quick and simple, leading to a reduction in costs.

When it comes to maintenance steel staircases offer a clear advantage over timber staircases in particular, as no painting, staining, varnishing or sealing is required. In addition, because they are resistant to fluctuations in temperature they won’t warp or twist. Lastly, steel staircases will never succumb to woodworm or rot and because the steel is pre-treated, there’s no danger of corrosion or rust.

Bespoke staircase designs tailored to meet to your requirements

Unfortunately there’s a misconception that a steel staircase will look very ‘industrial’ but this is not the case. As steel is incredibly versatile, steel staircases can be designed to look traditional, grand or stylishly simple. Whether you’re looking for a staircase to give your premises that wow factor, or are looking for a heavy duty, practical staircase, steel offers the ideal solution.
