MALVAL Lower Quarter-Turn Staircase - Fir, 65 cm, Reversible

The MALVAL staircase is a lower quarter-turn staircase in solid fir with two distinctive features: a width of only 65 cm and a reversible configuration - it can be installed facing right or left without any additional parts. Its reduced width of 65 cm makes it the narrowest lower QT in the WoodUp range, suited to spaces where standard staircases (80 cm) will not fit.

Designed for a floor-to-floor height of 280 cm with 13 steps, its footprint is 240 cm for a stairwell opening of 70x240 cm. The step height is 20 cm, the going 17 cm and the tread section 200x28 mm. Delivered in 3 packages. Available with or without risers.

Installation advice

Check the floor-to-floor height (280 cm maximum) and the stairwell opening (70x240 cm minimum) before unpacking. The width of 65 cm is the main constraint - ensure that the available space allows for this width plus a few centimetres of lateral clearance. As the MALVAL is reversible, the direction can be determined at the time of installation according to the final room configuration - a real advantage if the exact configuration is not certain at the time of ordering.

The handrail can be added after installation. With a width of 65 cm, the handrail will reduce the passage to approximately 63 cm - to be taken into account for comfort of passage.

Maintenance and protection

Apply a 2-coat staircase varnish before first use. On a narrow staircase with heavy use, the tread edges and stringer sides are particularly exposed - reinforce the finish on these areas. Renewal every 5–7 years. Cleaning: damp cloth, pH neutral.

WoodUp advice

The MALVAL is the solution to consider first when the available space is less than 70 cm wide. Its width of 65 cm allows it to be installed in configurations that are impossible for standard models (80 cm). Reversibility is an additional advantage - useful when the final direction of the staircase is not certain at the time of ordering, or when a reconfiguration of the room is planned.

Important before purchasing: the going of 17 cm and the width of 65 cm make the MALVAL a functional but demanding staircase. With these dimensions, it is suited to an agile adult who uses the staircase regularly. For elderly people, young children or people with mobility issues, a wider staircase with a more generous going is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

What is reversibility and how does it work on the MALVAL?

Reversibility means the staircase can be installed facing right or left without modifying any parts or ordering a specific version. On the MALVAL, the quarter-turn module is symmetrical - it is oriented in the desired direction during assembly. This flexibility is unique in the WoodUp lower QT range and allows the direction to be finalised on site, after confirming the definitive layout.

Is the 65 cm width sufficient for moving furniture?

A width of 65 cm allows the passage of one person and small objects. For moving furniture, a sofa, or bulky items, this width is very restrictive. If transporting furniture is a requirement, a staircase of at least 80 cm is recommended. The MALVAL is suited when use is mainly personal (access to a bedroom, study or mezzanine).

What is the minimum stairwell opening for the MALVAL?

The minimum stairwell opening is 70 cm wide by 240 cm long. These dimensions apply to the finished opening, including all cladding and coverings. Allow 2–3 cm of clearance in both width and length for installation (72 cm wide and 242 cm long are comfortable values).

Can a handrail be fitted on the MALVAL despite the 65 cm width?

Yes, a handrail can be fitted. With a handrail, the effective passage reduces to approximately 63 cm. A handrail on one side is sufficient for safety. On a narrow staircase, a spindle handrail takes up less lateral space than a bar handrail. Contact the customer service team for handrail models compatible with a 65 cm staircase.

Can the MALVAL be cut to size for a floor-to-floor height of 260 cm?

Yes. For 260 cm, the cut is approximately 20 cm on the stringers. The step height remains the same (13 x 20 cm = 260 cm). Check the floor-to-floor height on finished floor and ceiling before any cutting.

What is the difference between the MALVAL and the CEIGNE lower quarter-turn fir staircase?

The MALVAL has a width of 65 cm, a going of 17 cm, a footprint of 240 cm and is reversible. The CEIGNE has a width of 80 cm (82 cm with handrail), a going of 17 cm, a footprint of 256 cm and an included handrail. Choose the MALVAL when the space is less than 70 cm wide or when reversibility is useful; choose the CEIGNE for a standard passage with handrail included.
