Glider Modern Staircase

The ‘Glider’ contemporary staircase range is Signature’s central spine support stairs and offers clients an opportunity to introduce a beautifully finished, modern staircase style and architectural element to the design of their home.

Feature Details of Glider Contemporary Staircases

The Glider modern staircase range can be split into two broad categories or styles – the ‘Box Support’ or ‘Fin-plate Support options. A quick run through the image gallery and you will see how they differ, but essentially they both share a central spine and differ in how they connect the step to the main structure. Each contemporary stairs style is compliant with building regulations, but as with all Signature Stairs, gives that solid feeling when walking on.

With the ‘Box Support’ option individual steps are supported from the central spine by a single upright to the underside of the step. The Glider contemporary staircases are then fully encased in timber. The mild steel structure has been filled, sanded and primed ready to take the final colour by the client ensuring the stairs can be incorporated fully into the overall design of the home. Typically the Box Support option is finished with our frameless glass balustrade.

The Fin-plate Support option is a bolder more modern staircase style as more of the stairs structure is exposed with just the top of the step being clad with solid timber. The exposed structure is filled, sanded and primed and can be finished with any commercial paint to blend in with the colours used in the home. Typically this option is finished with our ‘Elegant’ balustrade which can have either a stainless handrail or matching timber finish.
