How it compares

How does a turn-style stair save space?

The trade-off across the turning configurations is footprint versus comfort. A landing is easiest to walk; a winder is the most compact. Here is where each one sits.

Stair towers FAQs

Common questions about stair towers.

  • Q: Do you offer wholesale pricing on stair towers for developers?

    Yes. Stair towers are priced for volume — multi-story, multi-unit fabrication at developer rates, with bulk delivery to a single building so your framing crew sets the flights on schedule. Open a trade account and call (610) 443-2240 for a project bid.

  • Q: Are stair-tower flights built to commercial code?

    Yes. Every flight is fabricated to the commercial rise/run, landing, and handrail spec for the adopted code in the building's jurisdiction, so the package passes inspection as installed.
