Exterior Stairs/Stairways Manufacturers

Exterior Stairs/Stairways are generally built less steep. The treads need to be deeper and risers shallower outdoors to make the stairs safer when wet or covered with snow or ice. Heavy timber or pressure-treated wood is often chosen for a wood stair out of doors. Ground-supported steps follow the contours of sloping sites to provide easy access to porches or entrances or as connections between terraces and landscape elements. Stairways can be straight, round, or may consist of two or more straight pieces connected at angles. Special stairways include escalators and ladders. Alternatives to stairways are elevators and inclined moving sidewalks.
