Circular Stairs

 

Circular stairs come in many shapes and sizes from grand staircases and the big mansions of the old South to the modern-day track framed home where one stair man can build two sets of staircases a day. Your basic circular set of stairs otherwise known as curved stairs can be made quite simply with 2 x 4 framing whereas a complicated set of circular stairs which is open underneath the staircase could require a prefabricated shop built set of stairs. The shop built stairs will require days to build as to their complicated laminated structure which requires the use of extensive geometry. The geometry required to figure out the tangents involved for the stair design and the handrail are complicated and extremely difficult.

The simple set of circular stairs which would not be open underneath the staircase can realistically be built by an novice carpenter with our simple instructions in a few days. This system does not require extremely difficult math to figure it out. But it does require basic math skills and could seem very intimidating. This basic set of circular stairs will require the a few simple tools along with a basic home framing skills.
