Bespoke staircases in Camden

If Open Riser Staircases in Camden were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Because the area is mainly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, mansion blocks and post-war infill, no two openings measure quite the same. Because of high pollution load and sheltered urban humidity, we see paint failure on south-facing sashes and rot at the bottom rail more often here than in most of the country. The detail we will not compromise on is open treads that still satisfy the 100mm sphere rule under Part K.

Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

One thing that catches people out here: large numbers of properties sit in conservation areas with like-for-like replacement conditions.

What we cover locally

Survey visits in Camden are usually booked within a week. There is no charge for the survey and no obligation to proceed.

Rise, going and headroom in Camden

Three numbers decide whether a staircase is comfortable or awkward, and they are the first things we measure.

Rise

Maximum 220mm per step for a private stair under Part K. Consistent to within 5mm across the whole flight, because the foot notices what the eye does not.

Going

Minimum 220mm. Rise and going together must satisfy the pitch rule, which is why a flight cannot simply be shortened to fit a smaller opening.

Headroom

2m measured vertically from the pitch line. This is the constraint that most often forces a winder instead of a straight flight.

What clients tell us

Feedback collected directly from completed projects. Full written references are available on request before you commit.

“The headroom was tight and they redesigned the winder rather than telling us it could not be done.”

Verified client, Greater London

“Dry-assembled in the workshop first, so installation day was genuinely uneventful.”

Verified client, Greater London

“No squeaks at all a year on, which was the whole reason we replaced the old one.”

Camden questions

Do you fit, or supply only?

Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.

Do you deliver nationwide?

Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.

Is the timber certified?

All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.

Will the finish need maintaining?

A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.

Can you match an existing profile?

Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
