Could A Metal Staircase Transform The Interior Of Your Home?

Showcasing top-of-the-range engineering and adding a highly desirable aesthetic element to any home, metal staircases are sleek, stylish, adaptable and above all else, functional - after all, a staircase you can’t use is about as much good as a chocolate teapot!

Designed and made by skilled Metal Fabricators, metal staircases have the ability to transform a home, and here are just some of their many advantages:

They’re no longer purely industrial

Having previously been associated with spaces of an industrial nature, metal staircases have spent the last decade or so being delightfully transformed into elegant additions for residential interiors. Combining the durability of metal with artistic and often complex designs, metal staircases are both sturdy and eye-catching, and when wooden handrails or balustrades made from glass are added, they can bring a sense of harmony to a space.  

They offer simplicity and style

While metal staircases can be as intricate as you wish, the philosophy of ‘less is more’ continues to reign supreme with many designers and fans of the minimalist look. Offering up clean lines that perfectly complement uncluttered homes, metal staircases are ideal for fans of all things simplistic but stylish. 

They give the illusion of weightlessness

A real hit in the world of interior design, floating metal staircases defy gravity and add a real sense of mystery and intrigue to a space. Helping to create the illusion of weightlessness, these mysterious yet no less functional staircases can be suspended from a wall or hidden beneath treads, to make a bold and unforgettable statement in any modern home. 

They can be customised

Staircases made from metal offer up levels of customisation like no other material ever can, and by working closely with an experienced and highly skilled metal fabricator, homeowners can bring their own visions to life, no matter how unique or wacky they may be!

Metal is an eco-friendly material

Increasingly important as we battle to save a dying planet, sustainability is a significant factor in the design of any structure, and staircases are no different. In the UK in particular, more and more designers are using recycled metals and metals that have been repurposed in an effort to minimise their impact on the environment, and for anyone interested in conscious living, a metal staircase is an incontrovertible choice. 

They can be combined with other materials

The trend of combining different materials in the home is still a popular one, and with a metal staircase, come endless opportunities to mix metal with other materials such as glass or wood, to create a visually stunning end result.

They can be painted

Nowadays, homeowners and designers alike are opting to use colours in interior design in ways they would never even have considered a few decades ago, and painting a metal staircase is a great way to inject vibrancy and originality to a space.  

Technology can be integrated

With smart homes fast becoming the norm, technological advancements can also be extended to metal staircases, and many designers are innovatively incorporating such things as LED lighting, built-in speakers and motion sensors to their metal staircase designs.

Steel and metal fabrication services can be used to help you create a stunning focal point staircase in your home; one that is just as safe and sturdy to use, as it is beautiful to look at.
