Getting Started on A Custom Circular Stairs Project

Interested in a custom circular staircase for your home or business? At Great Lakes Stair, we make the process easy! We invite you to look through our staircase galleries on stair.com to get some ideas of what you may (or may not) like. Additionally, as you do your research save internet links, photos, articles, and any printed literature that encapsulates from a high level what you have in mind for a custom circular staircase. When you’re ready, give us a call at Great Lakes Stair and speak with one of our stair specialists. We will listen to your ideas and needs and get a feel for what you want, and then collaborate with you to hone in on the design of the custom circular stair, what is possible (or not), where we can save money, and talk through your project and needs. We’ll invite you to share your photos and other research so we can understand fully what your vision and expectations are for a custom circular staircase.

Great Lakes Stair has been designing and manufacturing custom circular stairs for over 32 years and during that time we have really discovered what works, what doesn’t, and can help and advise our customers on bringing their staircase dreams to life. After our initial discussions where we share ideas and ballpark pricing, we will enter into a design services agreement to begin designing the circular stairs. We can provide 3D cad models which will approximate what your custom circular stairs could look like. During this process we fine tune the staircase design until the customer is satisfied and comfortable moving forward.

When you are working with Great Lakes Stair, the company ownership is heavily involved in discussing the stair projects with the customers. You’ll be getting firsthand knowledge, language and expertise about custom circular staircases. When you call Great Lakes Stair, you’ll be greeted by an actual person who can begin the conversation about your staircase project. No phone queues or endless prompts to find someone to help you. We pride ourselves on providing that old world personal touch when it comes to talking about your custom staircase project.

Another important distinguishing factor about Great Lakes Stair is that we don’t tell people what they want. We listen to their needs and advise customers on the most practical ways of turning their vision into reality.

Custom Circular Stairs Considerations

A circular staircase is a stair system that does a circular motion fitting within a circle, and typically will turn more than 90 degrees. Stairs that turn less than 90 degrees are typically called curved stairs. At Great Lakes Stair we don’t have too many restrictions or constraints when designing custom circular stairs unlike other companies which may only work within a certain set of dimensions. We can design circular stairs around nearly any radius that are customers can dream up! Many companies take the approach of “these are the radiuses we make; you have to fit it in your house”. But not at Great Lakes Stair, we love taking on the tough, challenging projects and delivering a one-of-a-kind solution that will fit perfectly in your home. When working with a custom stair project, the master craftspeople at Great Lakes Stair prefer to make whatever elements are required for the project, not simply pulling premade parts of the shelf into a project where they don’t belong.

At Great Lakes Stair, Custom Doesn’t Need to Be a One Off

While the team here at Great Lakes Stair enjoys the challenge of creating unique, one-of-a-kind circular stairs, we also have the ability to put that design in a production environment for larger projects like hotel chains or assisted living facilities. We recently completed a project of 88 staircases where we offered a selection of 5 different circular stairs styles, with each individual stair having customizable elements based on the customer’s requests. While other stair manufacturers will offer a one size fits all solution, Great Lakes Stair strives to offer as much customization as possible with our circular stair projects.

    Custom Spiral Stairs

    Custom Spiral Stairs

    In the world of spiral stairs, you will come across a lot of pre-manufactured, ready-to-ship spiral stair kits. These pre-fabricated spiral stair kits can work well in a space where you need a simple solution and you’re looking for a “plug and play” option. But what if you have your own design ideas? Great Lakes Stair has worked on many custom and semi-custom spiral staircase projects in our 32+ year history.

    When thinking about custom spiral stairs, there are 3 levels or classifications to consider:

    1. Custom spiral stairs involve fabricating the stairs to a customer’s architectural specifications. Custom spiral stairs can run the gamut of design as long as they meet all the engineering and safety criteria. We build these custom spiral stairs specifically for a particular job to fit and work in a space with a custom design.
    2. Semi-custom spiral stairs are where we will blend together the customer’s design ideas and specifications with design elements of our own.
    3. Production Spiral Stairs are where the staircase manufacturer will incorporate their own design elements and ideas to work with the customer’s space.

    At Great Lakes Stair we can make a custom spiral stair for the most modest of budgets all the way up to projects where budget isn’t really a concern: the project is more about will the spiral stairs satisfy the design element required for the project. In fact, we find that customers are more conscientious about finding a stair manufacturer that can ensure the custom spiral stair design can be built before price is discussed. We understand customers don’t have time to waste and they want to make sure the company they are speaking with can build what they are envisioning. And with 32+ years of experience building custom spiral stairs as well as all styles of stairs, Great Lakes Stair is that company.

    What Elements of a Spiral Staircase Are Customizable

    The basic design consideration of a spiral stair is that it wraps symmetrically around a center pole. There are other styles of turning staircases such as circular stairs, curved stairs, helical, and winding stairs which can vary in the way they turn, but a spiral stair wraps symmetrically. Check out our article on “Understanding Spiral Stairs” for more information.

    When it comes to what design elements can be customized with a spiral stair, the answer is pretty much every element of that spiral stair is customizable as long as it meets all safety criteria and codes.

    At Great Lakes Stair we have done a wide variety of custom spiral stair jobs that use materials such as wood, metal, glass, vinyl and combinations. We have even made spindles for spiral stairs 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 stairs for customers using wood from their property, for a truly one-of-a-kind custom spiral stair.

    Delivery and Installation Considerations for Custom Spiral Stairs

    With a custom staircase customers are often concerned about delivery and installation. At Great Lakes Stair we take care to design the custom spiral stairs so that it can be delivered and installed in sections while still maintaining that custom appeal. We design and build spiral stairs so that their sections can fit through a standard 3’ wide door opening. Through our experience with custom spiral stairs, we have ways of designing and building the stairs in sections that once it is put back together in its final space, you would never know it was built in sections!

      Modern Stairs

      Modern Stairs

      What Makes a Staircase Modern?

      When it comes to the design, manufacture and installation of modern staircases, Great Lakes Stair brings our over 32 year history of staircase production to all of our modern stair projects. It can be difficult to define the term “modern stairs” what is modern to one person may not be modern to another.

      In our experience what makes a modern staircase is a combination of less detail oriented designs and more clean flowing, symmetrical designs. With modern stairs you are taking in the whole staircase as one flowing element whereas with more traditional, colonial, or architectural staircases the approach is more about the finite architectural details. On a detailed wood staircase, you can see intricate carvings and specific detail pieces. With modern stairs the focus in on the overall view and look of the entire staircase because there is not a tremendous amount of exacting detail on separate elements of the staircase as everything blends and flows together on a modern staircase. You will typically find on modern stairs more round, rectangular, cylindrical shapes versus obtuse shapes you would find on a more traditional staircase.

      Additionally with modern stairs you will typically find more paint grade woods and paint colors versus wood stains.

      Different Terms for Modern Stairs

      Great Lakes Stair has worked with many customers on modern staircase projects and often we hear other terminology that is associated with modern stairs. A few of the other terms that we feel are synonymous with the term modern stairs are:

      • Contemporary Stairs
      • Simplistic Stairs
      • Flowing Stairs
      • Clean-lined Stairs
      • Avant-Garde Stairs

      Another description for modern stairs is a stair that might be finished on all sides meaning you might be able to see through the stairs with open rises or glass elements that make the staircase open to view the top, bottom and sides. A traditional staircase is only viewed from the topside.

      Additionally, many people confuse the term modern stairs with current trends in staircase design and that is not always the case. We hear people say “I see stairs doing this” but what you are observing is the style of stair, not the type of stair.

      Materials and Design Considerations for Modern Stairs

      With modern, contemporary stairs which use simpler methods and fabrication techniques they tend to be a little less expensive than traditional stairs due to the lack of ornate architectural detail work. You will also find with modern stairs the use of glass sides or balustrades, giving the ability to see through the staircase and flow with the house more openly.

      Why Choose Great Lakes Stair for you Modern Stairs project?

      What sets Great Lakes Stair apart when you are considering a modern stairs project is our experience and having been around for over 32 years!

          Monumental Stairs & Staircases

          Monumental Stairs and Grand Staircases

          Monumental staircases are large, grand stairs which are typically found in high-end homes and commercial buildings. They present a “wow” focal point when a visitor enters the property that may include a large foyer or entrance such as in a hotel or commercial building. Often, the width of the monumental staircase is greater than what is generally required for a stair system. Monumental stairs, also referred to as Grand Staircases, are showpiece staircases that create a mood and impression on guests.

          Monumental stairs often have elaborate and ornate architectural details in their design and construction. Due to their size, sometimes these architectural details are designed to conceal elements such as handrails, to bring the visitor’s focus to the overall beauty and detail of the staircase.

          Monumental staircases are non-conventional, unique stairs of high architectural interest that set the tone for the building or residence. They are typically designed to accommodate many people traversing them, and often have low rises which make them very easy to walk.

          Great Lakes Stair: Your BEST Choice for Monumental Stair Design, Manufacturing, and Installation

          At Great Lakes Stair we have been designing, manufacturing, and installing monumental grand staircases across the world for over 32 years. We know how to balance the architectural value of the staircase while simultaneously producing it within a specified budget. We can also fulfill the dreams of customers where cost is no option.

          We have the background and experience to know what types of questions to ask or customers, sometimes questions they have not even thought of yet, to ensure their monumental staircase dream becomes a reality. We collaborate with our customers by sharing photos, evaluating your space, understanding your specifications, and then producing a staircase that will last for generations.

            Exterior Stairs Custom Designed and Manufactured

            Custom Designed And Manufactured Exterior Stairs

            Exterior Stars Can Be Both Functional and Beautiful

            In our over 30 year history here at Great Lakes Stair & Millwork Co. we have designed and manufactured a wide array of exterior stairs for many varied applications. Any staircase design that you can dream up for the interior of your home can be successfully done for the exterior but with appropriate materials that can handle long term exposure to weather.

            Examples of exterior stairs that we have produced and installed are:

            If you have an idea for an exterior staircase for your residential or commercial property, contact us today or call 330-225-2005 and we can work with you to turn that idea into reality.

            Materials Decisions for Exterior Stairs

            In order to handle the exposure to weather, Great Lakes Stair utilizes a wide variety of materials that provide the durability required for many years of low maintenance and enjoyment on exterior stair projects. Materials we generally incorporate into our exterior stairs productions are:

            • Tropical hardwoods
            • Cedar
            • Redwood
            • Composites
            • Treated lumber
            • A large array of metals, primarily aluminum

            We do not use steel as a construction material for our exterior stair designs because at some point it rusts. Even galvanized steel will eventually succumb to the weather and elements and begin to rust and fail after 10 years. Additionally, we do not work on masonry stairs.

            Our preferred material for exterior stairs construction is aluminum, especially around seaboard areas of salt or fresh water. Anything that can be manufactured with steel or iron, we can match with aluminum including wrought iron and custom railings. Aluminum can be combined with composites as well as powder coating on finishes for enhanced durability. Exterior stairs that are constructed with aluminum can quite realistically last for generations! While the cost for aluminum is higher, the return on investment long term saves money due to less maintenance over the lifetime of the staircase.

            Exterior Stairs Cover A Wide Variety of Applications

            Great Lakes Stair has worked on a wide variety of projects for exterior stairs applications, including:

            • Residential applications
            • Commercial applications
            • Warehouse applications
            • Loading docks
            • Fire escapes
            • Custom applications

            Contact us today or call 330-225-2005 and we can discuss your application.

              Production Stairs: Beautiful, Custom Handmade Stairs That Fit Your Budget And Schedule

              Production Stairs: Beautiful, Custom Handmade Stairs That Fit Your Budget And Schedule

              In the staircase manufacturing industry, the term “production stairs” has often come to symbolize cheap, inexpensive, or poorly built stairs. At Great Lakes Stair, nothing could be further from the truth!

              Our production staircases are beautiful, custom handmade staircases that are designed and planned in such a way that they can be produced repetitively, quickly, and economically. We can determine all of the specifications, sizing, and logistics for production stairs in advance and have the stairs built and standing by in our facility, ready to ship to adhere to builder’s production schedules. Production stairs are built and used in high-end apartment buildings, condominiums, assisted living facilities, basically anywhere we can repeat the staircase specifications.

              Materials and Staircase Types for Production Stairs

              At Great Lakes Stair, we have no limitations on material selections or staircase type for our production staircase projects. Any materials that we would use for a one-of-a-kind staircase can be used for a production staircase project. Once we have the initial design and specifications locked in for the production stairs, it is simply a matter of repeating the process.

              For example, we recently completed a project which required 88 circular stairs that were installed in condominiums in Sarasota, Fl. They were beautiful, heirloom quality handmade staircases, which we were able to produce efficiently for the builder because we did not have to go back to the drawing board and redesign the stairs every single time.

              What Makes Great Lakes Stair The Best Company To Work With On Production Stairs?

              When it comes to the specialty niche of production stairs, Great Lakes Stair has the longevity and experience that builders need to make the process smooth, efficient, economical, and successful. With over 30 years of education in all things related to staircase manufacturing, our customers benefit from us not making the same mistakes over and over again. We are always learning so our customers can look to us for advice on their production stair projects. We make it easy for our customers because we can discuss candidly what has worked for us in the past, and what has failed, which helps our customers avoid bad situations.

              Additionally, we also offer pre-finishing services for our production stair projects so that our customers do not have to finish the stairs after installation. Most production stair manufacturers do not offer this pre-finishing service. With Great Lakes Stair, simply take the protective wrap off the staircase, and you have a finished piece of furniture ready to install.

              We can provide a turn-key service yet still keep the process streamlined and maintain a builder’s production schedule.

                Staircase Restoration: Restore Your Stairs To Their Original Beauty and Detail

                Staircase Restoration: Restore Your Stairs To Their Original Beauty and Detail

                The process of a staircase restoration involves bringing a staircase back to its original specifications and beauty. The Great Lakes Stair & Millwork Co. has performed countless staircase restorations in our over 30-year history. These projects ranged from restorations of staircases in old historical or commercial buildings, to restorations of stairs that were damaged by water or fire.  We can match the exact detail of what used to be!

                Often in restoration projects we are working on a staircase that was designed many, many years ago and the architectural elements such as wood profiles, spindles, posts, and hand railings for example are not available for replacement. At Great Lakes Stair, we can recreate these beautiful architectural elements through our advanced custom design and manufacturing processes to restore the original look and feel of the staircase. There is nothing we cannot replicate to fit design specifications from years gone by and make the stairway look brand new, but also period specific, and meeting today’s building codes.  

                We are a “turn-key” solution and routinely work with architects, designers, and historians on staircase restoration projects. We have the experience to review a restoration project, figure out the needs of the customer, and perform the restoration…. including pre-finishing & color matching services.

                  Staircase Remodeling: What To Consider When Remodeling Your Staircase

                  Staircase Remodeling: What To Consider When Remodeling Your Staircase

                  At The Great Lakes Stair & Millwork Co., we often hear from customers who are interested in remodeling their existing staircase in their home or commercial building. A staircase remodel is often thought of synonymously with a staircase renovation, however there are important distinctions for customers to keep in mind.

                  A staircase remodel should be thought of as a moderate change of basic components to give a staircase new life and a fresh look. A remodel is more cosmetic….think of it as a staircase makeover to improve the overall aesthetic appeal as well as bring the staircase up to today’s standards and codes. For example, we would consider the following items in a staircase remodel:

                  • Convert wood spindles to metal (or vice versa)
                  • Update stain or paint colors of spindles, banisters, and rails
                  • Changing spindles, hand railing, or newel posts with more decorative or up to date options
                  • Replacing staircase carpeting with the addition of a decorative stair carpet runner.

                  These types of cosmetic changes can be useful when preparing to stage a home for selling. We can update the staircase to today’s design trends as well as ensure all codes and standards are in place for the sale of a home. The staircase is a gathering area when entertaining and is often used for family or group photos. The staircase is one of the first things you see when you enter a home or business and will make a lasting impression with the people who come to visit you.

                  Staircase remodeling is meant to be a moderate update, and as minimally invasive a procedure as possible

                  A staircase renovation on the other hand is often a much larger (and more expensive) project and can involve removing and updating key structural components of a staircase such as treads, risers, and stringers. We At Great Lakes Stair often perform staircase renovations of historical staircases to bring them back to life while maintaining that exact historical look and feel. Additionally, in homes or businesses that have been damaged by fire or water, we will perform a staircase renovation to bring the staircase back to its original shape, form and look (because that is what insurance will cover). For more information, be sure to read our article on staircase renovation.

                    Is It More Cost Efficient To Renovate Stairs Or Replace?

                    One of the questions we get asked frequently about renovating staircases is “Is it more cost efficient to renovate my staircase, or replace it?” There is no “one-size-fits-all” answer here, as it depends greatly on each individual customer’s circumstances. In some cases, it may be more economical and efficient to renovate the staircase, but in other cases in may make more sense to do a complete staircase replacement. We evaluate the needs and desired end result for each customer, provide different options to meet those needs and expectations, and develop a solution that meets your budget. With our 30 year education in staircase design and installation, we can provide options that less experienced staircase companies and designers (and trim carpenters) cannot offer.

                    What Are Some Reasons To Consider Renovating A Staircase?

                    There are many reasons to consider a staircase renovation. A staircase is the most functional piece of furniture in your home or business. Here are a few reasons to consider a renovation:

                    • To provide better flow and make it easier to traverse.
                    • One of the biggest reasons people leave their homes when they age is, they can no longer navigate going up and down their stairs. We can provide a staircase renovation or redesign to make the stairs easier to traverse, which may enable the elderly to stay in their homes longer. We can also evaluate and renovate exterior staircases for these same reasons.
                    • To update the overall design as well as bring the staircase up-to-date with today’s codes. A staircase is the first thing people see when entering a home and often the last thing visitors see when they leave your home or business. People tend to congregate around the staircase especially at family gatherings for photos.
                    • Home staging when selling: a staircase renovation can update the look of your home, make it more modern and create an incredibly unique experience often for less money than you would think. We often work with realtors, designers, and architects who turn to us for our expertise in staircase design and renovation.

                    Are Certain Staircases Better Candidates For Renovation Than Others?

                    From our standpoint, all staircases can be candidates for renovation. We have performed some very unique stair renovations; we specialize in “Unique, Challenging stairs”!  We have the experience, know-how and ability to handle any type of stair renovation project.

                    How Long Does A Typical Stair Renovation Take?

                    The length of time for a staircase renovation depends on the complexity of the project with our top priority being safety. We have seen averages of 2 days to 2 weeks depending on the extent of the staircase renovation. We can provide a turnkey experience in our renovation projects including pre-finishing, drywall repair, associated trim as well as paint, stain and finishing. We do as much in our manufacturing facility as possible, so we do not inconvenience customers with finishing odors and additional construction time in their homes or businesses.
