This residential staircase is constructed from laser-cut steel stringers, a custom support system and quarter sawn oak treads with a natural water-based finish. It also features oak banisters, adhered to a glass balustrade. The fireplace surround is laser-cut hot rolled steel with a natural finish to preserve the rustic aesthetic of the material. Our construction technique requires no onsite welding making installation fast, clean and safe.
