Stair Design

Stair design is a critical part of ensuring that it can perform safely, meet building regulations and high standards.

The BWF Stair Scheme aims to help designers and specifiers achieve the design they wish to achieve without sacrificing performance.

We also support our manufacturers, who often play a significant role in design, to help them produce stairs that meet the expectations of clients in terms of a stair’s look, while ensuring they manufacture the highest quality stairs.

The Scheme has produced the BWF Stair Design Guide 1 – for architects and specifiers to use to help make their stair to the highest of standards.

We have also just released the Design Guide 2: Common Timber Stairs to assist stair designers, manufacturers and building professionals involved in the design and specification of common timber stairs for the UK market and we are happy to provide advice to all specifiers and designers of staircases via our helpline on 0207 637 2646.
