This contemporary timber Monostringer staircase is constructed in Victorian Ash and utilizes a stainless steel semi-frameless glass balustrade.

The sleek metal stringer is well complimented with stainless steel swaged cables balustrade and frosted glass bottom riser. The design team at OzStair worked closely with the owner and their builder to include finishing touches such as lighting under the landing to illuminate the frosted glass riser, delivering the timber treads to be pre-finished before installation as well as ideas for care and maintenance of their new staircase.

The Wombarra is of an open rise mono-stringer construction made in Victorian Ash and consists of 285x42mm Laminated Treads. The Framed glass balustrade with square stainless steel posts and a 50x25mm Rail has a minimalist design that allows an unobstructed view of the sandstone feature wall.

This modern form of balustrade is known as ‘Stainless Steel Rods’ and is a great way of making a statement about yourself. By utitilizing clean crisp lines this staircase is provided the high-class style we envisioned at the beginning of the project.

When designing a staircase on a budget, it’s important to know that the two sections of a staircase that wear the most are the treads and handrail. All other components of the staircase once installed will get minimal contact from an owner. With this in mind the staircase was constructed using hardwood for both the tread and handrail components to ensure its long life in a busy home. All other components are installed using DG Pine. A cost effective softwood perfect for a paint finish.

This staircase is Open Riser, Cut Stringer in construction and was designed to suit the clients unique styling. Constructed using 280x42mm Select Grade Treads and stringers we have prevented bounce in the flight, avoiding most of the squeak’s and creaks.

This Laminated Victorian Ash Staircase was constructed around its Sawtooth stringer. The treads and stringers are 42mm thick and overhang the Face and edges by 20mm. The reason behind using a 42mm stringer to ensure strength within the staircase, the open rise design requires a bit more planning than your standard staircase to ensure that it will be self supporting.
