That means always bringing together form and function. Good, clean, modern design with precision manufacturing to ensure the right fit for your project. We manufacture MDF stairs, American Oak stairs and fully custom timber staircases, along with the balustrades and handrails to match, all from our purpose-built manufacturing facility. It’s work that’s earned the trust of some of Australia’s largest and most respected builders. And our teams in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane are there to give you smart advice on the right stairs for the job.
We deliver fast stairs.
Our teams of experienced tradespeople manufacture and engineer every MDF and hardwood staircase, and our qualified carpenters install them on site. Because we run the whole process, from the factory floor to the final fix, we keep fine-tuning manufacturing, delivery and installation to give our customers the fastest delivery, a competitive price and a staircase built to last.
Family owned and operated for over 40 years
We know stairs
We’re a family business, four generations working with timber. We’ve always been practical types who build things well. It started with our grandfather’s Adelaide hardware store, where our knowledge of timber led us to start building stairs over 40 years ago. Since then, that’s all we’ve done.
We continue to introduce new stair designs and solutions, from MDF staircases to custom timber masterpieces, helping builders and homeowners complete projects faster while accessing an industry-leading range of stair parts.
