Hi Kevin,

Here’s a general drawing that should be enough to ask for quotes .

More detailed manufacturing plans  can be drawn when you decide on the people who will build the stair as these might change accordingly. 

To get a quote I suggest you send the drawing with the photos that show the style you are looking for.

All the best,

Ness

Hi Ness

 

The Stains need to be within the confide of the 3m x 3m square

I will measure and give you the floor to ceiling height so we can work out the joist height

 

Best Regards

Hi Kevin,

I’m working on your drawings and can’t find the under ceiling height (or joist depth).

Can you post it?

cheers,

Ness

Thank you Ness

Can you use this design to create the 2 gallery options?

Cutting list and technical drawings required for us to get some prices?

 

Best Regards

Hi Kevin,

Here’s a redraft of the stair plan.

I’ve extended the curtail step to 2050 total length as this looks better in the general flow of the stair.

What do you think?

All the best ,

Ness

Dear Ness

 

Thank you for the layout

I am happy to have newel post at the top and bottom of the stairs for rigidity

Could you please draw the 2 options of the additional 4 newel posts and without as with the option of making the use in the UK or China the cost might not be so restrictive ?

looking at the dimensions you have put

The sizes I would be happy with are:

1200mm Internal (between the newel posts) at the top of the stairs

900mm Internal in the middle of the stairs

1500mm Internal (between the newel posts)

the bottom step can go out to a maximum overall width (External) of 1800mm

Best Regards

Hi Kevin,

Here’s a first draft of the plan for your stair.

plan01v01.pngImage Enlarger

 

I have drawn up 2 possible options. On the left with direction changes using newel posts, the easiest and cheapest option.

On the left with direction changes using newel posts, the easiest and cheapest option.

The right option uses wreathed sections and curved panelling around the landing joists, maybe a bit more elegant but longer to make and of course more expensive. This is just an idea maybe not necessary.

The initial flare could be increased if there is room in the hall way.

What is the size of the hall?

For spindles 50×50 would be a minimum.

I have drawn the posts at 100×100, strings 80mm.

The stair is wide so steps will have to be fairly thick at least 35-40mm and risers will have to give structural support to the steps so minimum 20mm.

If the general plan si OK I’ll move forward and draw up some detailing and ask a quote from our supplier.

All the best,

Ness

Hi Ness

The spindles & newel posts will be made / supplied by the UK or Chinese supplier to your drawings, if you are able to keep them to a standard I am sure that will help everyone and the overall cost if it does not impede the design

I think the norm for spindles are 41mm – 50mm but I am no expert, I am hoping this is something you will know or your supplier can advise (as I would be interested in his quote for this job)

 

I hope this clears things up ?

 

Best Regards

 

Kevin
