Staircase Kit

A straight staircase is the metal or wooden rise suppported by a stringer. The modern version of the straight staircase supports open concept designs, and is often sold as a staircase kit. Viewrail offers single metal staircases that are prebuilt to your exact specifications.

Yes, upon arrival. We engineer and manufacture each section of your staircase and ship it to you clearly marked and labeled— to ensure quick assembly on site. You’ll receive your straight stair in one piece, and all the tread brackets will come with bolts, so it’s simple to bolt the entire system together.

All straight staircase components are built to comply with the most recent iteration of the International Builders Code (IBC). We always recommend that you check on your state or local laws to ensure that you are complying with their individual requirements for installation.

Before your floating stairs can be installed, we need to make precise measurements and drawings of your space, to identify the most secure way for your stairs to fit. Then, our team in Goshen, Indiana custom-fabricates the components of your stair system to match the measurements. We take care of as much of the prep work as we can in our factories, so there’s no need for welding or fabrication on-site.

Because your stairs are pre-fabricated, our team is able to install your stair system in as little as one day, so you don’t have to worry about juggling contractors and living in a construction zone for weeks on end. We take pride in doing the small things well, so we make sure your stairs look as fresh and clean as possible when we leave.

Our interior stringers are made of mild steel. We chose this material for its strength and durability. It’s perfect to hold up to the everyday wear and tear of home life.

Yes! We even have a glass option. This pairs exceptionally well with our glass system.

Most likely yes, unless you have the right equipment. However, a small team will always help speed up the process of installing a straight stair. Here is a video of a father and son installing an entire project from start to finish!

Our steel staircases have passed the building code guidelines and this was determined by an independent third-party engineering firm. In fact, a straight stair can hold over 10,000 pounds of weight. Our founder, Len Morris, actually tested this out himself in a live Facebook video.
