Metal Staircase Manufacturing
Bespoke Metal Staircases for Residential, Commercial and Industrial Properties
Bespoke metal staircase manufacturing for residential, commercial and industrial properties. MS Metal designs and fabricates staircases to suit your space, layout and project requirements, using durable steel, stainless steel and other suitable materials. From straight flights and spiral staircases to fire escapes, landings and balustrades, we provide complete metal staircase solutions from fabrication through to installation.
Bespoke Metal Staircases for Your Project
Every staircase can be designed around the building, the available space, access requirements and the way the stairs will be used. A staircase serving a loft conversion has different needs from an external access stair at a commercial unit, so each project starts with the site and the specification.
MS Metal Fabrications Ltd fabricates bespoke metal staircases for internal and external applications, working from accurate measurements and to drawings or specifications. Our staircase service covers:
- Bespoke staircase design
- Accurate measurements
- Fabrication to drawings or specifications
- Residential and commercial projects
- Internal and external applications
- Fabrication and installation
- Different materials and finishes
Whether you are adding access to an extension, replacing an existing stair or specifying stairs for a new commercial building, we can discuss a staircase that suits your project.
Types of Metal Staircases We Manufacture
Different layouts suit different buildings and spaces. These are the main staircase types we manufacture.
Straight Metal Staircases
Suitable for homes, commercial buildings, offices, workshops and other spaces where a conventional staircase layout is appropriate.
Spiral Metal Staircases
Space-saving staircases designed for areas where floor space is limited while providing a distinctive architectural appearance.
Helical Metal Staircases
Curved staircases manufactured for projects requiring a more flowing architectural design.
External Metal Staircases
Durable external stairs for access between different levels, commercial buildings, extensions and outdoor areas.
Fire Escape Staircases
Purpose-designed external metal stairs for emergency access and escape applications, subject to the requirements of the specific building and project.
Metal Stair Landings
Custom-fabricated platforms and landings designed to connect staircase flights and provide safe access between levels.
Metal Staircases with Balustrades
Integrated guarding, handrails and balustrades designed to provide protection while complementing the staircase design.
Metal Staircase Materials
The material affects the strength, weight, appearance, corrosion resistance and maintenance of a staircase. MS Metal fabricates in mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium, and the right choice depends on where the staircase will be used and how it needs to perform.
Mild Steel
A strong and versatile option for structural staircases, external stairs, fire escapes and general metalwork.
Stainless Steel
Suitable where corrosion resistance and a clean architectural appearance are important.
Aluminium
A lightweight option for applications where reduced weight and corrosion resistance are required.
Custom Staircase Components
A staircase is made up of more than its visible flights. Because MS Metal fabricates the structure as well as installing it, each part can be made to suit the design, the loads and the fixing conditions of your building.
Components we can fabricate include:
- Stair stringers
- Stair treads
- Risers
- Handrails
- Balustrades
- Guardrails
- Landings
- Support frames
- Fixing plates
- Brackets
- Posts
- Structural supports
Component sizes and fixing methods are selected according to the design, the supporting structure and the installation conditions.
Staircase Designs and Finishes
The appearance of a metal staircase can be adapted to the property. Design, material and finish can be chosen to suit a modern home, a commercial interior or an industrial site.
Modern Metal Staircases
Clean lines and simple profiles for contemporary properties.
Industrial Metal Staircases
Exposed steelwork and practical finishes for commercial and industrial environments.
Decorative Metal Staircases
Designed to combine structural function with architectural detail.
Powder-Coated Metal Staircases
Durable protective finishes available in different RAL colours.
Galvanised Metal Staircases
Suitable for applications where additional corrosion protection is required, particularly external environments.
Residential Metal Staircases
Metal staircases for homes can be fabricated to fit the layout of the property and the way the space is used. Residential projects include:
- Internal staircases
- Loft conversions
- Extensions
- Garden access
- Split-level properties
- Space-saving stairs
- Bespoke architectural designs
- Handrails and balustrades
Commercial and Industrial Metal Staircases
Commercial and industrial staircases need to suit the building, the number of people using them and the access requirements of the site. We fabricate metal staircases and access structures for:
- Offices
- Retail premises
- Warehouses
- Industrial buildings
- Workshops
- Commercial developments
- Access platforms
- Fire escape systems
- External access stairs
Metal Staircase Design and Manufacturing Process
Our process runs from the first enquiry through to handover, so you know what happens at each stage.
Step 1: Initial Enquiry
Send your measurements, photographs, drawings or project requirements.
Step 2: Site Survey
Where required, measurements and site conditions are assessed before fabrication.
Step 3: Staircase Design
The staircase configuration, dimensions, materials, access requirements and finish are agreed.
Step 4: Technical Drawings
Drawings or fabrication details are prepared to establish dimensions and component requirements.
Step 5: Metal Fabrication
Steel, stainless steel or aluminium components are cut, shaped, welded and assembled.
Step 6: Quality Checks
Dimensions, alignment, welds, fit and finish are checked before delivery or installation.
Step 7: Finishing
The staircase can be supplied with an appropriate finish such as powder coating or galvanising where specified.
Step 8: Installation
The fabricated staircase and associated components are installed on site.
Step 9: Handover
The completed staircase is checked and handed over for use.
Staircase Safety and UK Building Requirements
The requirements for a staircase depend on the type of building, the application of the staircase and the project specification. They are not the same for every staircase, so each project should be checked against the requirements that apply to it.
Approved Document K covers protection from falling, collision and impact, and is relevant to stairs, ramps and guarding in England. Points that are normally considered during the design include:
- Stair geometry
- Tread and riser dimensions
- Handrails
- Guarding
- Balustrades
- Headroom
- Slip resistance
- Structural requirements
- Fixings
- Load requirements
- Site-specific conditions
- Building Control requirements
Where Building Control approval is needed, it should be confirmed before fabrication begins. MS Metal can discuss the specification with you and your designer or building control body as part of the project.
