Whats the key measurement for knowing what size tread I need?
If you measure the INSIDE of your stringer from Left to Right and then take 1/2″ off the total length, that’s the size tread you need.
Can you make me a custom size stair tread?
YES. Just contact us with your measurements and we will work with you toward getting your perfect stair.
What is your standard bolt layout?
Our standard bolt layout is 2 1/4″ from the outside of the stair tread to the center of the bolt. There are four bolts in a standard bolt layout. 6 1/4″ top to bottom.
Do you offer weld plates instead of bolts for fastening?
Yes, we can. The typical stock is our bolt on tread, but we can manufacture your order with weld plates in place of the standard bolt design.
What is the standard finish of our stair tread?
A broom finish with a 2″ picture frame cope around the edges.
Do you offer custom finishes?
We do offer some, please contact us for more information.
What will happen if I salt my stair tread?
Do not put salt or any type of chloride product on our precast concrete steps to melt ice. Salt will rapidly deteroriate the step, which could result in injury and will void the warranty.
