DESIGN FEATURE - WATERFALL/INFINITY STAIRS

Waterfall stairs, also referred to as infinity stairs, provide a clean and modern aesthetic to add to your space.

Infinity stairs are designed to make it so that the treads and risers appear to be one continuous piece. These stairs elevate the design of any space and compliment many different design styles.

Check out our social media for more sample photos of these sweet stairs!

DESIGN FEATURE - CUSTOM STEEL RAILINGS

Custom steel railings are the ultimate finish to define your space!

When mixed with different materials, these railings can compliment any design aesthetic. As these railings are custom made for every project, they require precise measurements and production. These railings create a focal point in any room. If you are looking to differentiate your space, the options are endless.

Check out our social media, as well as our sister company, Steelhaus, for more photos of these sick designs!

INSTALLATION TIPS

Starting a renovation or a new build project can be very overwhelming!

There are hundreds of decisions to make and many factors to consider. It is crucial to plan ahead whenever you are working on this type of project to ensure that there is plenty of time to meet your deadlines and achieve the finish you are looking for.

It is also important to consider how every aspect of a project ties together. For example, the flooring you decide to use in your home will impact what wood species would be best to use for your stairs and railings. It is also important to consider that it is best to install stairs, railings and nosings prior to new flooring.

Another factor to consider is that certain stair openings and layouts will accommodate different styles of stairs, railings, or glass based on their design. Assessing what is possible with your project early on in the design process is an important step in ensuring that changes can be made if necessary.

As the industry continues to get busier every day, it is also important to plan ahead! By leaving yourself enough time for planning and installation, this will ensure a seamless process.

If you have any questions or concerns about getting started on your next renovation or build, please reach out to us and we would be happy to help you!

TIMELINES

Whether you are working on a renovation or a new build project, it is crucial to remember to plan ahead!

IMPORTANT INDUSTRY UPDATE!

Ontario is proposing to allow Horizontal Guard Design!

We get tons of requests for horizontal guard designs and customers are often quite disapointed to find that these systems don't currently meet Ontario Building Code (OBC). Great news though, Ontario is proposing to harmonize the Ontario Building Code (OBC) with the National Building Code 2015 (NBC) for guard rails. Public review for this change ends December 4, 2021!

This change, which has already been accepted in other provinces, will allow for horizontal elements like cable rail in guard design.

To review the proposed changes open the proposed building code changes file here:

Scroll to page 114 to find Part 3, code sentence 3.3.1.17.(5) and 3.4.6.6.(8) pertaining to guards. Scroll to page 319 to find part 9, code sentence 9.8.8.6.(1)pertaining to guards.

Whether you reside in another province or work, live, or visit Ontario, your voice is important! Send a message to the government to support reduced regulation and promote inter-provincial trade.

It only takes 30 seconds to voice your support! Open the following link:

Add your name and email. Reference code numbers: 3.3.1.17.(5), 3.4.6.6.(8), and 9.8.8.6.(1). Lastly add the comment, "I support harmonization".

Spread the Word! Anyone can support this change! Forward this email to your colleagues, industry contacts, friends, and family.

Cheers,

The Stairhaus Team

Design Feature- Glass Inserts

As summer is upon us, now is the best time to consider adding a glass feature to your home!

The use of glass as a guard, whether it be indoor or outdoor, can truly transform a space. As many of us continue to work remotely, why not take advantage of the situation and make your space as inspiring as possible.

Glass is a feature that can be included in many different ways. Glass can be used as a guard, incorporated into the railing design, or as a wall itself. The use of glass in any design adds a high-end custom finish to the project. The addition of glass to any space also immediately makes it more open and bright, while maximizing the views of any location.

Check out our social media for more examples of this show stopping design feature!

Stairhaus Bought a HAUS!

We are beyond stoked to let you all in on a little secret we have been keeping for quite some time. We basically ran out of space in our 2nd year of business and have been coping with it since. We have been on the hunt for a facility that would compliment what we do and found one that is absolutely perfect. Our shop and office space will be 3x larger than what we currently have. This will be huge for us on all fronts

Stay tuned for more details…………………………………..here is a teaser.

We are excited to announce that we have joined up with the Barrie Chamber of Commerce.  This will be a great opportunity for our company with respect to networking and community involvement!  Thanks for welcoming us with open arms!


SHOWROOM - Coming Soon........................

We have been working hard behind the scenes preparing for our grand opening in May (date TBA).  Our showroom is starting to take shape and we can't express how excited we are to open this to the public.  You will notice that our website address bar now has the "showroom" tab. Professional pictures of the finished space will be taken and added once complete.

We guarantee that you will be blown away with the options, quality and service you will receive.  Stay tuned for more updates while things come together!

Showroom - Under Construction!

First blog entry of the year!  Hope everyone had a great/safe Christmas holiday and New Year!  We are very busy right now however we have made it our mission to get our showroom ready for our grand opening which we hope to have in May.  Here are a couple pics of the stair/post/railing display which will be finished up in the coming weeks.

Our goal is to build the BEST stair/railing showroom in the game.  I have seen many of our competitors and I can honestly tell you our showroom will be next level - a place you will want to check out.

Stay tuned!


BARN BOARD is the new Elmo!

That's right! We are moving 1000sqft a week right now. Price goes up in the winter when stock runs low, cash in while real barn board still exists. We are Simcoe County's ONLY retail reclaimed material seller. Our board is de-nailed and kiln dried - not like the air dried kijiji junk which is wet and will shrink excessively when it is installed on your wall. You get what you pay for! Have a great night!
