Flight Visualizer

Select Your Configuration

Straight

A straight FLIGHT system is the most common configuration. It is most commonly used when there is a long, rectangular opening for the stair to rise through

90°

A 90º staircase is a common stair configuration which utilizes a left or right turn. It’s often used to save space in homes where a straight staircase would interfere with the living space.

Switchback

A switchback staircase rises halfway in one direction up to a landing, then turns back and up to the second floor. The switchback metal stringer provides support for both sections of stairs.

U-Turn

A U shaped stringer is most commonly used in a steep, narrow opening for a staircase. It utilizes three shorter stringer sections connected by two landings.

Select Your Landing

Upper

Upper landings will sit between a longer lower stringer and a shorter upper stringer.

Middle

Middle landings will sit between evenly sized upper and lower stringers.

Lower

Lower landings will sit between a smaller lower stringer, and a longer upper stringer.

Rod

Viewrail’s proprietary rod railing is the only tensioned rod system on the market. The ¼” rods are unobtrusive and are the easiest infill option to install. Constructed out of marine grade 2205 Stainless Steel, they far surpass any durability or strength tests.

Cable

Cable railing is perhaps the most well known modern railing. It is easily customizable with sleek cable runs between posts. The stainless steel cable and hardware creates a minimalistic feel.

Onyx Rod

Onyx rod railing is one of the most requested railing options Viewrail offers. These ¼” rods are constructed out of 304 Stainless Steel and powder coated matte black. With matching black hardware, black posts, and black handrail.

Glass

The newest modern railing, glass railing provides the cleanest views and some of the strongest railing. It pairs perfectly with any FLIGHT system to make a beautiful modern staircase. Glass railing is available in a frameless option, or between metal posts.

Select Your Mounting Style

Surface

Surface mounted posts are screwed directly down on the surface of a tread with 2.5” screws. These posts have a 3.75” x 3.75” plate and can be mounted on the front, middle, or back of the tread if needed.

Tread Side

Similar to the name, these posts mount to the side of a thick tread utilizing a mounting plate and two bolts. Of the three options, this type of mounting provides the most walking space.

Inset

Inset Tread Side Mounts are the same posts as the Tread Side Mounts, but they are fastened into a cut out in the side of the tread. There is no need for a foot cover, and the side of the post is in line with the side of the tread.
