MILANO Metal Spiral Staircase
Milano Spiral Staircase: flat steps in black, grey or white powder-coated metal, slightly textured for a non-slip surface. Continuous PVC handrail for a comfortable grip. Available in three diameters, 120, 140 or 160 cm. Adjustable step height 210–231 mm. Minimalist style, reversible left or right installation.
The Milano spiral staircase is distinguished by a simple but striking detail: flat metal steps, with no visible relief, giving the whole structure a clean silhouette. Combined with a low continuous handrail, it fits equally well in a minimalist interior or a contemporary renovation. Available in three diameters (120, 140 or 160 cm), it is suitable both as a standard upper-floor access and as a mezzanine or gallery staircase.
The powder-coated metal structure is available in three colours: deep black, modern grey or classic white. The slightly textured steps provide a non-slip surface when going up and down, a reassuring feature for family use. The continuous high-quality PVC handrail runs the full length without any break in grip. Thanks to the adjustable step height between 210 and 231 mm, the staircase adapts precisely to your floor height over a configuration of 12 steps plus a landing.
Like all Minka spiral staircases, the Milano can be installed with either a left or right rotation depending on the layout of your space.

Height extensions on order
On order, up to two additional steps can be added to increase the maximum floor height. Standard configuration: maximum height 3003 mm. With one extension: 3234 mm. With two extensions: 3465 mm. This option applies to all three diameters and allows the staircase to be adapted to unusual ceiling heights without changing model.

Installation advice
Essential measurements before ordering: Identify the diameter suited to your ceiling opening. Minimum required by diameter: 1300 x 1300 mm for Ø120, 1500 x 1500 mm for Ø140, 1700 x 1700 mm for Ø160. Also record your exact floor height, finished floor to finished floor, in mm.
Choice of rotation direction: Specify at the time of order whether you want a left or right rotation, depending on the position of your stairwell opening and the desired orientation of the top landing. This choice is final once manufactured.
Determining step height: With 12 steps, your exact floor height determines the optimal step height between 210 and 231 mm. If your ceiling exceeds 3003 mm, indicate this at the time of order to benefit from one or two extensions (up to 3465 mm).
Site preparation and assembly: Flat and stable floor support, solid ceiling anchor for the central column. Minimum 2 m² access at the base for receiving the modules. The staircase arrives pre-assembled in sections: positioning the column, stacking the steps, fixing at the two support points, fitting the continuous PVC handrail. Estimated duration: 4 to 6 hours with two fitters depending on the chosen diameter.
Maintenance and protection
Steps and metal structure: Wipe once a month with a dry cloth or a slightly damp one in humid environments. The powder coating provides lasting protection against corrosion. Check annually for any paint chips exposing bare steel, a sign of wear to monitor.
Non-slip surface: Clean with neutral soapy water, without abrasive products that could wear down the surface texture. Avoid solvent-based products.
PVC handrail: Clean with soapy water, without abrasive products. PVC requires no special treatment and retains its colour over time.
Lifespan: With regular maintenance, the Milano staircase retains its functional and aesthetic qualities for a minimum of 15 to 20 years in residential use. The powder-coated steel structure and stainless steel sub-stringers enhance this durability.
Frequently asked questions
Which Milano diameter should I choose for my space?
The choice depends on your available ceiling opening. The Ø120 cm is suitable for restricted spaces with a minimum opening of 1300 x 1300 mm. The Ø140 cm offers a more comfortable passage with 1500 x 1500 mm. The Ø160 cm, for 1700 x 1700 mm, is recommended if space allows, as it reduces the rotation per step and improves climbing comfort.
Are the flat metal steps slippery?
No. Each step has a slight surface texture designed to reduce the risk of slipping, both going up and coming down. This non-slip finish requires no additional treatment after installation.
Can the Milano be installed with either a left or right rotation?
Yes. The Milano is reversible: specify your preference at the time of order according to the layout of your room and the desired orientation of the top landing. This choice must be confirmed before manufacture, as it becomes final once the staircase has been produced.
Can the standard height of 3003 mm be exceeded?
Yes, on order. A one-step extension raises the maximum height to 3234 mm. Two extensions allow you to reach 3465 mm. This option is available for all three diameters and must be specified at the time of order.
What is the difference between the three diameters in terms of comfort?
The larger the diameter, the smaller the rotation per step: 29° for Ø120, 25° for Ø140, 22° for Ø160. A smaller rotation means less of a turn from one step to the next, resulting in a climb perceived as more comfortable, at the cost of a larger floor footprint.
Is the Milano suitable for accessing a mezzanine or gallery?
Yes. Its compact structure and continuous PVC handrail make it a popular choice for this type of access, in addition to use as a standard upper-floor staircase. Simply check that the ceiling opening and available height match the chosen diameter.
What regular maintenance should be planned for the metal structure?
A monthly wipe with a dry cloth is sufficient in most cases. In humid environments, a slightly damp cloth is recommended. The powder coating provides lasting protection for the structure, requiring no particular annual treatment unless visible chipping occurs.
