Just like railings, steps and stairs for your elevated deck, porch or screen room are a primary decision in the outdoor-living design process.
Stairs can provide an elegant element of contrast to an outdoor space or seamlessly blend with an outdoor structure with matching materials.
Nonetheless, steps and stairs should be functional, convenient and improve traffic flow.
Types of steps and stairs include:
- Full set, single direction deck staircase with a consistent step width.
- Full set, single direction or turning staircase with landings.
- Broad, angled, half-moon, or curved step designs for wide backyard spaces.
- Staircase or steps with a flared design.
- Z-shaped staircase for traffic flow, space utilization and backyard access.
- Wraparound or bi-directional deck stairs for improved traffic flow, space utilization and yard access.
- A double set of steps or stairs for platform or raised decks.
- Multiple staircases and steps for two-story projects or decks with level changes.
- Deck steps and stairs with built-in lighting for ambiance and safety.
- Spiral staircase for decorative appeal, ideal for decks or porches with minimal ground space.
