Definition of the top quarter-turn staircase

The top quarter-turn staircase is a staircase with a 90° angle at the top of the staircase. The straight flight of steps is at the bottom of the staircase, and the turning steps are at the top. The footprint of the quarter-turn staircase is smaller than that of a straight staircase. The quarter-turn can be to the right or to the left. The materials for quarter-turn staircases are:

  • Stainless steel, galvanised steel;

  • Wood (fir, beech, oak);

  • Concrete or glass.

If you need natural light indoors, favour staircases without risers.

The design of the staircase is a major point. A staircase is a piece of furniture in its own right, deserving particular attention to style, colours and finish. Furthermore, carefully study your stairwell opening, its dimensions and shape — the choice of a turning, straight or spiral staircase is always made from top to bottom.
