Submit a Steel Staircase Inquiry With Drawings and Dimensions

t381-46

A steel staircase inquiry is most useful when it includes floor-to-floor height, the available opening, the staircase type you have in mind and any architectural drawings. Clear dimensions and photos let our team review feasibility and respond with a written specification for your approval.

What to Include in Your Inquiry

A complete inquiry saves time for everyone. Start with the basic facts of the project: the floor-to-floor height, the length and width of the stair opening, and the number of risers you expect. If you already have a plan or section drawing, send it along, even as a rough sketch.

Drawings and Dimensions That Matter

Drawings do not need to be professional to be useful. A clear sketch with measurements marked on it lets us understand the geometry quickly. Mark the direction of the stair, the landing positions and any walls, columns or beams that could limit the layout.

Please label every dimension with its unit and note whether it is measured to the finished floor or to the structural slab. This small detail often prevents misunderstandings during production.

Site Conditions to Describe

The condition of the site affects how the steel structure is anchored and how it is delivered. Tell us whether the stair will be fixed to concrete, to an existing steel frame or to a new structure still under construction. Mention access routes for the finished pieces, including door widths, elevator dimensions and any stairwell limitations.

Helpful site notes

Let us know if the area is already finished or still open, and whether any tiling or flooring will be added later, since this changes the final tread height.

How Our Review Works

Once your inquiry arrives, our team reviews the drawings and dimensions for feasibility. If something is unclear, we will ask a focused question rather than guess. For many projects we will also suggest arranging an on-site measurement, because measuring the actual opening confirms details that photos alone cannot show.

The review leads to a drawing and a written specification. Nothing is produced until you have reviewed and approved that specification.

Approval, Production and Finishing

After approval, the staircase is manufactured in our Tel Aviv factory at 37 Rival Street. Steel parts are cut, welded and then finished, typically with hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating depending on the environment and the look you want. Finishing choices are discussed during the specification stage so there are no surprises later.

Installation and Coordination

Installation is coordinated with your site schedule. Please confirm that the openings, anchor points and access routes are ready before delivery. For projects with building committees or several trades involved, a shared set of approved drawings helps everyone work from the same information.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an engineer's drawing to send an inquiry?

Not always. A clear sketch with dimensions is enough to start the review. For structural questions, our team will tell you when an engineer's confirmation is needed.

What if I only have photos and no measurements?

Send the photos anyway, along with any approximate sizes you know. We can then arrange an on-site measurement to get the exact dimensions.

Can you work from my architect's plans?

Yes. Architectural plans, sections and details are very helpful. Please send the relevant pages with the stair area clearly marked.

How do I know the exact safety requirements for my railings?

Railing requirements follow Israeli standard SI 1142 among others. We confirm the exact values with the engineer during the specification stage rather than relying on general figures.

Common mistakes to avoid

The most common mistake is sending dimensions without indicating whether they are measured to the finished floor or the raw slab, which can change the tread height. Missing site access details can also cause problems when large steel pieces need to reach the stairwell.

Our recommendation

Measure the actual opening on site before finalizing the design, and send the floor-to-floor height both before and after the final floor finish is added. This single habit prevents most fit issues.

Summary

A good steel staircase inquiry includes clear dimensions, site conditions and any drawings you already have. Complete information lets our team review quickly and send a specification you can approve.
