Compound Helical (curving and sloping with more than one radius) staircases are the most complex staircases and demand custom cut pieces in order to negotiate the twisting geometry of the sloping curve. The issues discussed in the straight staircase and helical staircase posts still apply, but there are additional requirements that must be met in ...

Helical (curving and sloping) staircases are more complex than straight staircases and demand custom cut pieces in order to negotiate the twisting geometry of the sloping curve. The issues discussed in the straight staircase post still apply, but there are additional requirements that must be met in order to have a successful project. What is ...
