Hi guys, I’m looking for some help finding a Canadian Spiralcase maker, not steel, we don;’t have room to get one in the house. So we are looking for a reasonable priced woodem spiral staircase. Prefer Western canada, due to shipping costs. Fairly plain & simple staircase is all we are looking for . Our house is far from new & a “high end” staircase isn’t warrented. Thanks for your help.

Few people understand it. Nobody agrees what it is, how to learn about it, or who's responsible for it. It has never been more important

A steel sprial stair kit is the least expensive. It will come shipped in several boxes. The center pole is the largest item.
They are easy to install and sturdy. Do a search to find the closest manufacture near you.
spiral stairs
having built several of these stairs from scratch over the years a kit would probally be the easist way to do one
the one i have in my house i used a barn beam for the main post as i hve barn beams in my ceiling in the great room that the stairs leads from
the treads are 1 12 ïnch oak
for spindels i used 1/2 inch steel going through the treads on the bottom & welded to a piece of channel on the top
to reinforce the structure i welded a horse shoe between the spindles in every second space
for a railing i got 1/4 x 3 1/2 x 1/4 oak & laminated them in place ( lots of clamps & glue )
this setup looks alright as the building is circa 1875 stone and everything looks a bit rustic
i did another set for a job & used a steel well casing as the main post & welded tread supports to it & the rest was similar to the first one
note: do not wax the treads !
Dude
jeezus, did you lose the periods and comma's?
Yeah, and his shift key and return key are apparently not working.
