What is the difference between the three stair types?
A mono stringer uses one central steel spine for a clean minimal look. A double stringer uses two, which adds rigidity and a more solid feel, making it the usual choice for commercial or wide residential runs. A cantilever anchors treads into a structural wall with nothing visible on the open side, giving the most dramatic floating effect.
Is there a travel charge on a Kent job?
No. The shop and showroom are both here in Kent, so local jobs carry no travel charge. Being minutes away also means we can measure quickly and come back easily if anything needs fine tuning after installation.
Do you build floating stairs for commercial spaces?
Yes. A floating staircase in a lobby, showroom, or mezzanine makes a strong impression, and we build them to take constant public use, which usually means a double stringer and a more robust specification than a residential stair. Being local to Kent, we handle installation and any later service quickly.
Can I see the staircase before it is installed?
Yes, and on a floating stair it is worth doing. Our shop and showroom are in Kent, so you can see tread and stringer samples, compare finishes in person, and on your own project view the stringers and treads on the shop floor before they are delivered.
