Starts with Components

Stair and Rail components are made in our own 50,000 square foot mill.
At Designed Stairs we control all aspects of your stairs, from the purchase of lumber, all the way through to final assembly or installation.
Other stair sources typically buy stair parts from a supply house or big box retailer, which can give you mismatched materials, color and finish.
At Designed Stairs all parts are made from the same lumber sourced; this gives you more consistent color and finish in your parts.

Higher quality and less time on site


Building your stair starts in our shop with woodworks fabricating much of the stair. Stringers are precut on our CNC. Hand rails and fittings are attached, carved and sanded, Newels are precut for each unique need. Fabricated materials are delivered to the jobsite for installation by highly skilled installers.
With so much designed and fabricated, Installers achieve higher quality stair in less time.
Getting your sub-contractors on and off the site quickly and efficiently is one of the keys to a successful project. Get your next trade in and complete your job faster!
Care given to every intersection and alignment
Designing for alignment, intersections and connection is required for fine quality design. There may be a hundred or more components in a stair and rail and each connection must be considered from flight to flight.
Prior to a single part being cut, each connection and intersection is laid out for alignment and aesthetics.
This example may look like an architectural elevation; however, it is much more. Basement to 2nd floor is calculated and laid out to fine detail, aligning the stringers, treads, rail, glass and glass hardware, from all angles. This gets turned into CNC programs to cut stringers, drill treads, make slab landings, as well as making glass templates.
