Staircases

Staircases That Shape Spaces

A staircase is a focal point — inside a home, an office lobby or a retail centre. We design for comfort, proportions and flow, then back it up with structural precision.

Staircase Types

Trigo metal modern cantilevered floating staircase fabrication and installationType 01

Feature & Floating Staircases

Cantilevered treads and mono-stringer spines that read as sculpture. The focal point of a home, office lobby or retail centre — engineered to earn the attention.

Straight, Dog-Leg & Quarter-Turn Staircases

Practical flights with landings — straight runs, dog-legs and quarter-turns. Built for flow between levels in homes and commercial spaces.

External & Fire-Escape Staircases

Robust external stairs and escape routes. Hot-dip galvanised or painted steel, built to weather and to code.

Steel Staircases with Concrete or Timber Treads

Steel structure paired with timber or concrete treads — the warmth of wood or the mass of concrete on a precision steel frame.

What Makes Our Staircases Different

01

Designed as Part of the Architecture

We align the staircase with openings, floor finishes and balustrade lines. The result feels deliberate, not squeezed into whatever space is left.

02

Comfortable to Climb and Safe to Use

Riser heights, tread depths, handrail positions and landings are developed to standard and tested against real-world use.

03

Engineering You Can Trust

Behind the clean steelwork is careful structural design. Our staircases are engineered and checked so the structure, fixings and connections perform exactly as required.

04

Integrated Balustrades and Handrails

Because we handle both staircases and balustrades, junctions between the two are resolved from the start. Handrails flow cleanly and there's no on-site improvisation.

Staircase Frequently Asked Questions

We design and install a wide range of steel staircases, including floating and spine stairs, straight and turning flights, external and fire-escape staircases, and steel stair structures with timber or concrete treads. We can also provide steel cage formwork for in-situ concrete stairs.

Yes. We regularly work from architectural drawings, 3D models and design concepts. Our team develops detailed shop drawings, resolves structural and balustrade interfaces and coordinates with other trades before fabrication begins.

We design staircases around standard riser and tread dimensions, going, headroom, handrail heights and balustrade requirements. Structural elements are checked by qualified professionals, and we can provide the necessary documentation for sign-off.

We do both. While many of our projects involve high-visibility feature stairs, we also design and install robust service and escape staircases where practicality and durability are the priority.

Options include painted or powder-coated steel, hot-dip galvanising for external stairs, stainless steel elements, and a range of timber or other tread finishes. We'll recommend finishes based on your design intent, location and maintenance expectations.

The earlier the better. Bringing us in during design or early technical stages allows us to advise on stair layout, structural depth and balustrade integration, which can save time and changes later in the programme.

Our installation teams are used to working on both live and new-build sites. We plan lifting, access and protection measures in advance and coordinate closely with the main contractor to minimise disruption and maintain site safety.
