The Various Types of Stairs We Install

Every element of a home or business needs to come together to form a unique, single message or style. Whether you want to convey comfort, professionalism, or a mix of both, the design of your property is the groundwork for conveying these emotions. For properties with multiple stories, one of the key pieces that cannot be overlooked is the staircase. Literally connecting on floor to another, your stairwells and steps require special attention if you want to keep the theming of your property concise.

To get the right set of stairs for your home or business property, you should consider the benefits of two of the most popular types of stairs: precast iron fixtures and magnesite-fiberglass fixtures.

1. Precast iron staircases : Generally used indoors to replace wooden or stucco fixtures that are prominent in most home, precast iron staircases create a contemporary look in any property. Due to the ease of installation and the standalone design of the steps, precast iron staircase treads are easy to replace, should they ever become damaged. However, with a professional finish applied, accidents and mistakes will have a hard time actually damaging a precast iron staircase.
2. Magnesite and fiberglass staircases : There are few staircase fixture options more durable and resistant to the ravages of Mother Nature than magnesite and fiberglass staircases. Due to their strength and vintage appearance, these types of stairs are usually used outdoors to connect floors of apartment complexes or business facilities. For people who want a clean look with added slip resistant properties, magnesite or fiberglass should be their first choice. The endurance of these steps also means maintenance is low and necessarily replacement is unlikely.
