Advantages And Benefits Of Metal Staircases and Stair Rails

If you’re in need of a new staircase for your home or business why not think about metal staircases and stair rails over more traditional timber types? They can take you to places you never thought you could go! Still not convinced? Let’s take a look at some of the main benefits and advantages.

For any DIY dodgers out there, metal stairs are your definite friend. They don’t need staining, varnishing or sealing and in addition are resistant to changes in temperature, so they won’t bend or warp. As a result they are just as ‘at home’ both indoors or out.

High levels of resilience

Metal stairs are strong, durable and built to last. They’re not susceptible to drastic changes in the environment and unlike wood, they won’t succumb to the dreaded termite. Instead the metal (usually aluminium or steel) is treated so it’s rust and corrosion proof. In addition metal stairs are capable of holding weights far in excess of wooden stairs and this gives more scope to create unusual shapes and designs.

Creating unique designs

Metal staircases or stair rails really do look the part. They can be simple ‘straight up and down’ designs or an ornately curving, grandiose object that befits a large house or premises. They can be mixed and matched with glass or even timber to create that real wow factor and if you wanted to you could get one constructed to wrap around a large portion of your home for that real statement of intent. Whether you want soft and elegant or industrial and hard-edged, metal should always be your material of choice.
