The Terrace floating stairway, Viewrail’s newest stair system, uses a rigid steel stringer system concealed inside a series of stacked wood boxes to create a modern, “waterfall”-style stair with no visible fasteners or means of support. The only visible anchors are to the floor and header at the top.
Each stair is bounded on either side by tempered glass railing panels, which appear to “slice” through the wood box stairs. The wood components are available in a choice of 15 species, including red or white oak, hard maple, American cherry, hickory, and walnut. Each is available unfinished or in the customer’s choice of wood stains and colors.
Each of the stair’s components, including the glass railing panels, is custom-manufactured for the job, and arrive ready for installation with all required holes pre-drilled. The installation process requires locating and installing the tube steel stringer, fastening each stair section to the stringer, and installing the glass railings, handrails and sides. All fasteners are included in the package. viewrail.com
