Spiral Stairs and Non-Permitted Uses

Spiral Stairs and Non Permitted Uses

At Great Lakes Stair we often get requests for spiral stair projects, and we have noticed that many of the requests can’t be fulfilled because it would violate building codes or conflict with permitted uses. It is our policy and duty to educate our potential customers on what is and what is not allowed when it comes to spiral staircases. If we provide a spiral staircase for your home or business that does not fulfill a need properly or violates permitted uses, we can be held liable for issues or accidents involving those spiral stairs. In fact, the number one area of a home where injuries occur is the staircase, even more so than the kitchen.

As a stair manufacturing company, we know we have to follow the codes that are established so when customers make requests for a particular use of a spiral stair that doesn’t follow an applicable uniform building code, we can’t expose ourselves to a customer potentially getting hurt.

However, because Great Lakes Stair has a long history of successful spiral stair projects we may be able to offer a workaround for customers to help them achieve what they are looking to do with a spiral staircase, while following all the necessary building codes. We have over 30 year education in designing, manufacturing and installing spiral stairs and along that journey we have run into lots of problems and issues for which we have had to find workarounds.

We listen to the customer’s needs, we understand what they are looking for and if they ask us for a specific stair in a specific space that we know we can’t do we’ll inform the customer but we also provide options for moving forward for what can be done.

A perfect example of a spiral stair that can’t be used in a particular area of a home is a spiral stair leading to a bedroom. That is a non-permitted use because it is deemed a safety issue getting down the spiral stairs in the event of a fire. Additionally, fire fighters have difficulty wrapping their hoses around spiral stairs which can choke off the water supply through the hose. However, if the spiral stair is going to a lookout or other area of the home that is not an occupiable area (where no one is sleeping) then we are able to install the spiral stair.

We also can’t use spiral stairs on the exterior of commercial buildings as a secondary egress (secondary fire exit).

In short, spiral stairs are great choices for access to areas which are not bedrooms.

    Different Materials That Can Be Used in the Construction of Spiral Stairs

    Different Materials That Can Be Used in the Construction of Spiral Stairs

    When spiral stairs come to mind, people typically envision staircases constructed from wood or metal. Throughout history, wood and metal have been the primary materials used in the production of spiral stairs. However, thanks to the continuous progress in manufacturing technologies, we now have the ability to incorporate a diverse range of materials into spiral staircases. This allows us to better cater to our customers’ preferences, design aesthetics, and overall vision.

    Thanks to recent advancements, we have the capability to blend a wide array of metals in the construction of spiral stairs, including steel, aluminum, cast iron, brass, and bronze. Moreover, we can integrate other elements such as wood, glass, and exterior deck materials into the design. In terms of colors, the options for spiral stairs have significantly expanded beyond the traditional white and black. Virtually any color can now be incorporated into the spiral stair system, granting limitless possibilities for customization. At Great Lakes Stair, we excel in combining these diverse materials and colors, resulting in the creation of truly unique spiral staircases that align with our customers’ design visions.

    Depending on how the spiral stair will be used and whether it will be an interior or exterior staircase can also dictate what types of materials Great Lakes Stair may recommend. For example, if you require an exterior spiral stair that will be near a saltwater or freshwater environment we typically will recommend an aluminum powder coated finish for the design of the exterior spiral staircase. This type of approach to the design and materials of the spiral staircase will provide customers with a stair system that could last a generation before needing any maintenance. By way of comparison, if we did the same spiral stair in a laminated wood material it would look great, but it will require more maintenance and if that maintenance is not performed the spiral stair could deteriorate quickly.

    The choice of materials is something customers need to take into consideration: do they want more of a maintenance free spiral stair system or are they looking for a particular design aesthetic.

    For spiral stairs that will be inside a home or business customers can think about how the staircase will be used and that can guide the choice of materials. Since the inside of a building is not weather affected we can utilize more wood or steel in the design of a spiral staircase, which can be more cost effective than aluminum which we would recommend for an exterior spiral stair.

      Unique Design Elements of Spiral Stairs for Architectural Aesthetics

      Unique Design Elements of Spiral Stairs for Architectural Aesthetics

      When most people think of spiral stairs they generally associate the staircase as being made of wood or metal. And historically spiral stairs have predominantly been made with wood and metal materials. But with the ongoing advancement in manufacturing technologies, we can now incorporate a wide variety of materials into a spiral staircase to better match customer’s tastes, likes, design and vision.

      For example, many people are not aware that we bend glass all the way around a spiral staircase to give that unique style to perhaps match other glass balconies or railings that they may have in their home or business. As another example, customers may want an exterior spiral stair that goes from an upper outside deck to a lower area and incorporate the stair to blend in with the deck flooring material to bring everything together so it all matches. We can make spiral stairs match the entire deck system.

      We can now combine many different metals into spirals stairs such as steel, aluminum, cast iron, brass or bronze and mix with wood, glass, and exterior deck materials. In addition to materials, colors for spiral stairs have been greatly expanded from the traditional white and black. Virtually any color now can be incorporated into the spiral stair system. At Great Lakes Stair we can combine all of these materials and colors to create a very unique spiral staircase that matches perfectly with the customer’s design vision.

      In addition to new builds, we can also incorporate different materials and colors into remodeling jobs where a customer wants to match something existing but also make the spiral stair unique.  We suggest customers send us their inspirational photos or designs, tell us what they like or don’t like, and we can then incorporate their thoughts into a final design. This gives us the ultimate flexibility into giving the customer what they want.

Instead, our spiral staircase solutions range from semi-custom to fully custom-designed and meticulously hand-fabricated projects. We firmly believe that one size does not fit all when it comes to spiral stairs. Beware of the inexpensive commodity spiral stair market and its tempting cheap prices, as they often lead to complications and issues. We frequently encounter poorly constructed and improperly installed commodity spiral staircase kits, necessitating replacements. Remember, if it resembles a one-size-fits-all “Erector Set,” it usually is one.

        How To Measure Spiral Stairs

        How To Measure Spiral Stairs

        How to measure for a spiral staircase

        Here at Great Lakes Stair, we often get asked by potential customers how to properly measure the area where they are thinking about installing a custom spiral staircase.

        Measuring an opening for a spiral stair is really simple. There are actually just two (2) measurements that our designers need to be able to begin the process:

        • Overall Rise: this measurement is the top of lower floor to the top of upper floor overall height. It is also known as the overall rise of the staircase.
        • Diameter: next, we need to know what diameter of spiral stair the customer is thinking about. Diameter (which is often confused with Radius) is the length across the circle of the spiral staircase. The majority of spiral staircases are designed and built with a 5’ diameter. Occasionally we have requests for larger or smaller diameters.

        Additionally, it is important to know the rotation of the spiral stair which is either clockwise or counterclockwise ascending the spiral staircase which determines where the platform for entering or exiting the spiral stair will be at the top.

        With these 2 simple overall measurements our design team at Great Lakes Stair can start a conversation with our customers about what style of spiral staircase would work best for their space. If you are unsure of how to make these measurements, give the experts at Great Lakes Stair a call and we can easily guide you through the process. Upon request, we also have a fee-based service where a Great Lakes Stair representative will visit your home or business and take the measurements. This is for customers who just aren’t comfortable with using a measuring tape!

        It’s much easier (and less expensive) in the long run when we have the correct measurements to start a spiral stair design project. In many cases in the past, we have had to work with spiral stair projects that were measured incorrectly, and sadly the only recourse in these cases is to start over.

          Safety Concerns for Spiral Stairs

          Safety Concerns for Spiral Stairs

          Spiral stairs are beautiful staircases that can enhance a home or business and provide an efficient and elegant solution to accessing different floors. However, attention must be given to their design, manufacturing and installation to ensure that they are safe for people or pets that may have difficulty traversing the staircase. People that have difficulty traversing a normal staircase will tend to have more difficulty traversing a spiral staircase. The elderly or anyone with physical limitations, small children, and pets with short legs may have trouble going up and down a spiral staircase.

          The difficulty with spiral stairs and why they are sometimes harder to traverse for some people is because typically they have smaller treads and higher risers due to the nature of their design. This makes the spiral stairs a little more daunting to walk on for some people. We advise all of clients who are considering a spiral stairs for their home or business to think about if they have any of these human or pet elements that may have a harder time getting up and down the spiral stairs. For example, if a spiral staircase is the main access for pets to get down from a deck to the lower ground, they probably can do it but certainly pets can be very intimated by spiral stairs and as pets age, they will tend to go up the spiral stairs, but not down.

          Another consideration is carrying items on a spiral staircase. For example, if you have a loft in your home with a spiral stairs for access and you have a laundry basket, it is sometimes difficult to traverse a spiral staircase because you want to look at your feet and because the width of a spiral stairs is usually smaller than a regular stair, it is not easy to see your feet.

          While there are safety considerations which we advise our customers regarding spiral stairs, the positives generally outweigh the negatives when thinking about adding a spiral staircase to your home or business. You can do a lot with a spiral stairs in a limited amount of space. The goal is to have a minimum of a 5’ diameter spiral stair to allow the easiest access up and down. When you go smaller than a 5’ diameter, an average sized adult will tend to have to walk sideways to get up and down instead of straight. If you have the space, we recommend even going to a 5’6” diameter or even a 6’ diameter. Now you are making the spiral stairs much more accessible for humans and pets and easier for use.

          Other approaches we can use to make spiral stairs safer if necessary would be to install outer and inner hand railings. For example, in commercial applications such as a stage in a theater where lighting and sound people need to traverse a spiral stairs to gain access to lights and sound equipment, we will install the inner and outer hand railings for additional safety.

            How To Compare Spiral Stair Manufacturers

            How To Compare Spiral Stair Manufacturers

            There is a lot to think about when you are considering a spiral stair project. When you are reviewing spiral stair manufacturers it is important to understand the types of stairs that the manufacturer produces. Spiral stair manufacturers are not all the same – each manufacturer approaches projects differently, or specializes in different types of spiral stair production. What one spiral stair manufacturer considers “standard” another may view as “custom”. Additionally, you want to make sure that the spiral stair manufacturer you are considering has complete design capability and can help you understand the building codes that you will have to adhere to in your area.

            Spiral stair manufacturers offer different levels of quality for the spiral stairs they produce depending on the project. You want to ensure that the manufacturer will make you a spiral stair that is the best solution for your project. Often times we talk to customers who have tried a “one size fits all” spiral stair product for their project but were unhappy with the final result.

            What sets Great Lakes Stairs apart in the spiral stair industry is that the spiral stairs we make for our customers are custom designed and built for their project. We go through all the specifications with our customers including the height and diameter and understanding the space where the spiral stair will be installed. We discuss with our customers how they want the handrail system to look and function, what type of treads they want to use, as well as other aesthetic questions such as materials, choice of woods or metal, color, and pre-finishing services. We offer many different options for our spiral stair projects – options that other spiral stair manufacturers don’t offer.  

            Great Lakes Stair, Your Number One Choice for a Spiral Stair Manufacturer

            At Great Lakes Stair we strive to accommodate our customers’ needs at a price they are comfortable with for the project they will be receiving. With over 33 years of custom staircase design, production and installation, we know exactly what questions to ask about your spiral staircase project and we understand your needs as a customer. We can save our customers time and money because in all of our years of experience, we’ve seen what works best and what doesn’t and can help educate and guide our customers on their spiral staircase projects.

              What Is Needed to Quote a Spiral Stair Project

              What Is Needed to Quote a Spiral Stair Project

              Any staircase project has a lot of variables to consider, and it is important for customers to be able to provide the required information to a staircase manufacturer to ensure having a successful project. This is especially important for a spiral stair project.

              At Great Lakes Stair we start by asking our customers to describe in their own terms what they are trying to accomplish with their spiral stair project. What problems are they trying to solve? With over 33 years of experience in designing and producing spiral stairs, we are often able to understand and decipher what customers are telling us they want to accomplish with their spiral stair project.

              We also will ask customers to provide photos of the area where they are considering installing a spiral stair. Additionally, if a blue print or plan is available we will request that along with even sketches of what the customer has in mind. We also request any inspiration photos that they have seen or collected that are examples of what they are looking for in their spiral stair project.

              We will also request two dimensions: the overall height from floor-to-floor and the overall diameter or width of the spiral stair.

              All of these items give Great Lakes Stair a general idea of what the customer is trying to achieve with their spiral stair project and will allow to provide a quote on the project.

                Spiral Staircases by Great Lakes Stair

                Spiral Staircases by Great Lakes Stair

                When you are considering a custom spiral staircase, Great Lakes Stair can work with you closely to bring your vision into reality. At Great Lakes Stair we can design, build and install a custom spiral staircase for the most modest of budgets or for projects where cost isn’t the number one concern. Our spiral staircase projects are more about will the spiral staircase satisfy the form and function required for the customer’s needs.

                At Great Lakes Stair we have done a wide variety of custom spiral staircase jobs that use materials such as wood, metal, glass, vinyl and combinations. We have even made spindles for spiral staircases out of tree branches! As long as it meets safety criteria we can build it. Additionally, we have done custom treads and custom center poles out of a variety of materials to achieve the look that customers envision. Often, we have built custom spiral staircases for customers using wood from their property, for a truly one-of-a-kind custom spiral staircase.

                When choosing a manufacturer to design and build your custom spiral staircase it is important to consider the importance of longevity and experience in the stair manufacturing industry. For over 33 years, Great Lakes Stair has been helping customers with their spiral staircase projects. After being in business that long with the same phone number, same bricks and mortar manufacturing facility, and same website (sine the 1990’s), Great Lakes Stair has developed a reputation as a world leader in the design and fabrication of spiral staircases.

                What Advantages Do Spiral Staircases Offer?

                Spiral staircases are best to be used for ease of access in a small area. With a standard 5’-3” finish square opening, we can do a lot with a spiral staircase to traverse between floors. Additionally, spiral staircases are great conversation starters as they are visually different from standard staircases that you see in a home or business. You do not see spiral staircases all the time in the design of a home, so they tend to stand out when implemented.  The best part about a spiral staircase is that it does “a lot” in a “little” space while looking extremely architecturally aesthetic!

                While we are big fans of spiral staircases here at Great Lakes Stair, there are some key points to keep in mind if you are considering implementing a spiral staircase system:

                • Spiral staircases can’t be used as the main staircase in a home or business.
                • Spiral staircases are not deemed good as a fire escape, and they also limit gurney and fire hose access.
                • It is difficult, if not impossible, to move furniture between floors with a spiral staircase.
                • Spiral staircases cannot be used as bedroom only access.
                • Sometimes spiral staircases can be intimidating to people to traverse, especially seniors and young children and also pets.

                If constructed and used properly, spiral staircases can be a beautiful and safe addition to your home or business where only personal access to an area is needed.

                  Designing Safer Stairs for Senior Citizens

                  Designing Safer Stairs for Senior Citizens

                  At Great Lakes Stair we take great pride in designing and building functional stairs for our elderly seniors that allow them the dignity of ageing in place in their homes with a staircase that is easier to go up and down. The idea of modifying staircases to make them easier to traverse for seniors was borne out of watching our own parents age and begin to struggle with getting up and down their stairs. For seniors who elect to age in place in their homes, one of the biggest challenges they face is navigating and traversing the staircases both into and out of the home, as well as up and down to 2nd and 3rd floors, basements, attics and lofts.

                  Oftentimes what we see in these cases is that seniors are electing to stay in a home they have been living in for many years. So, we are dealing with a home that is fairly old and was built when building codes were not as friendly as they are in modern times. For example, staircases of past eras had a much taller riser and a much narrower tread, which can make traversing the steps much more difficult for our seniors.

                  In many cases our designers are able to modify existing stairs to add additional treads and risers as well as ADA approved hand railings that are easier to grasp and hold to make the staircases more comfortable and easier for seniors to traverse the stair, and to provide better footing on a wider tread to feel more comfortable going up and down the stairs. These types of staircase modifications could make the difference for seniors to be able to stay in their homes longer while maintaining an acceptable level of safety. The relief and joy we see on our senior customers faces after we have modified their stairs to make them easier and more comfortable to walk on is very satisfying and rewarding for the team here at Great Lakes Stair!

                  Great Lakes Stair: Taking a Leadership Role in Designing and Modifying Stairs for Seniors

                  For 33 years, Great Lakes Stair has been designing and building custom staircases for all types of specialty situations and spaces. We bring all those years of knowledge and experience to each one of our custom staircase projects especially when we are doing a specialty stair design or remodel to improve a staircase for our senior customers. Building custom stairs is all we do!

                  Think of this analogy, if you need a knee replacement you wouldn’t go to your general practitioner doctor, you would seek out a doctor that specializes in knee replacements and has performed many knee replacements successfully. The same thing is true when it comes to custom staircases for our elderly senior citizens. Through our extensive stair building background we can design and implement the modifications necessary to make stairs easier and more comfortable for seniors to navigate, allowing them to stay in their homes longer.

                    Floating Stairs

                    The term “floating stair” is another name for a free standing stair or a self-supporting stair. Essentially a floating or free standing stair means you can see under or over the staircase. There are no walls obstructing the view in, around, or under the staircase. Floating stairs can be designed in nearly any style from an ultra-modern interpretation to a very traditional colonial design. If you want to make a particular area of a home or business a focal point such as a view of a beautifully landscaped yard or a specialized room with unique features, a floating stair is ideal because you can “see through it” and appreciate the backdrop.

                    Material Considerations for Floating Stairs

                    There really are no limitations regarding which materials can be used for a floating staircase design. All materials that can be used in a traditional supported staircase can be used for floating stairs; they just need to be engineered appropriately to exclude the walls around the staircase.

                    Floating Stairs Are Ideal for Residential as well as Commercial Projects.
