Victorian Spiral Stairs

Traditional Elegance

Inspired by the intricate metalwork of 19th Century Britain, our traditional Victorian spiral stair designs provide a decorative centrepiece that is perfectly suited to both indoor and outdoor spaces.

With a wide choice of staircase diameters, baluster designs and colour options, we can tailor the staircase to your tastes whilst ensuring it is fully compliant with Building Regulations.

Each piece is cast at our Staffordshire foundry using time-honoured methods and finished by the experienced team at our workshop. By casting with aluminium, we achieve a look and feel that is virtually indistinguishable from cast iron spiral stairs but has much lower overall weight – making them a great choice for existing buildings.

Product Features

All our staircases are bespoke, and we can tailor every aspect of the piece for your project, from spindle patterns to the choice of colour. Explore some of the design options for our Victorian range.

Spindles & Infill Panels

Choose from a range of designs, from simple circular and square profile spindles, to ornamental infill panels. We can design your balustrade to ensure it achieves your desired aesthetic whilst also meeting the Building Regulations requirement that no gaps be greater than 100 mm.

Landing Plates

Every spiral staircase requires a landing plate, they tend to be either 60 (triangular shaped) or 90 degree (square shaped) rotations and can either be made with a cast top to match the treads, or taken to your finished flooring. We can manufacture landing plates to either a radius or square edge to fit circular or square openings.

FAQs

Do you export staircases outside of the UK?

Yes, we can arrange delivery worldwide. Approximately 15% of our staircases are exported overseas and we have helped customers across the globe achieve beautiful results on their projects.

Learn more about exports.

Do you offer a fitting service?

We are only able to offer a fitting service for clients in the London area. However, all our products are designed for local tradesman and DIY enthusiasts to be able to install, and because they will have been fully erected in our workshop and made to measure there is very little work to be done on site if correct dimensions have been supplied. Full fitting instructions are sent out with the staircases.

What staircase diameters do you offer?

We can manufacture staircases in a range of diameters from 970 mm to 2600 mm depending on your project requirements. The minimum diameter may depend on local Building Regulations and what the space being accessed via the staircase is used for.

Can I order a custom design of casting?

Why do you use cast aluminium for your spiral stairs?

Cast aluminium is virtually indistinguishable from cast iron but provides a number of benefits. It is typically much lighter (in some cases weighing around a third of a cast iron design). This makes them much easier to install and can also reduce the structural loading in existing buildings or the size of footing needed in gardens. It is also less brittle and offers excellent corrosion resistance.

Do you have a showroom that I can visit?

Yes, we do. There is a full showroom at our workshop in Chapel-en-le-Frith. The Derbyshire showroom is open from 8 am – 4 pm Monday to Friday. We strongly encourage prospective clients to visit the showroom if they can so that they can see all the different options available and get a feel for the different diameters and quality of the product.
