Modern Stairs Plus designs, fabricates and installs custom home stairs with steel stringers, wood treads, and glass or metal railings. We work with homeowners planning new builds and interior renovations, creating staircases that suit the floor plan and surrounding finishes.
From the supporting structure to the handrail, each element contributes to the finished design. Explore staircase styles, compare material combinations and discuss the options for your space with our team.
Mono stringer stairs use a central steel support beneath the treads, leaving the sides visually open. They work well as a prominent interior feature, particularly when paired with wood treads and glass railings.
Double stringer stairs use two supporting stringers and create a different architectural profile. The choice between these systems depends on the appearance you prefer and the requirements of the project.
Open-riser designs leave space between the treads, helping preserve views through the staircase. Stair layout, railing design and surrounding walls also influence how open the finished space feels. We help you consider these details together when selecting a design.
Knowing the main components makes it easier to discuss your staircase design:
Handrail: The graspable rail used for support while moving along the stairs.
Newel post: A main post positioned at an end, landing or change in direction in some railing systems.
Balusters: The vertical members that form part of a railing.
Treads: The horizontal surfaces you step on.
Stringers: The structural supports beneath or beside the treads.
Risers: The vertical faces between treads; an open-riser design leaves openings in these positions.
https://modernstairsplus.ca/glass-railings-toronto/Modern Stairs Plus designs, manufactures and installs custom mono stringer stairs for homes in Toronto and the GTA. Built around a single central steel support, this staircase style creates an open appearance that suits contemporary interiors and allows light to pass between the treads. Pair your steel stringer with oak treads and glass railings for a warm, airy finish, or choose metal railings for a more defined architectural look. Each staircase is tailored to the available space, floor height, landing arrangement and your preferred finishes. We help homeowners compare tread options, railing styles and steel finishes to create a coordinated design for renovations and new homes. From initial measurements through fabrication and installation, our team works with you to create a staircase that fits your home and everyday use.
Our residential staircases combine steel supports with wood treads. The steel creates the structural framework, while the wood adds grain, texture and colour to the interior.
Tread finish and stringer colour can coordinate with your flooring or introduce a deliberate contrast. Consider samples alongside nearby floors, doors and cabinetry to see how the materials work together in your home’s lighting.
Tread dimensions and attachment details are part of the complete staircase design. These choices should be considered alongside the layout and railing system, rather than selected separately.
Glass railings maintain views through the staircase and allow the steel structure and wood treads to remain visible. Panel mounting details and any posts or top rails influence the overall appearance.
Metal railings provide a more defined pattern. Slim vertical balusters can complement a contemporary interior, while other metal profiles create a more decorative finish. Coordinating the railing colour with the stringers helps connect the different elements.
Handrails should be considered alongside the railing system. Their material, profile and position affect both everyday use and appearance. Planning the stair flight and landing railings together helps create consistent transitions throughout the space.
A staircase project starts with the available space. Floor-to-floor height, opening dimensions, headroom, landings and surrounding doorways all influence the layout. For a replacement staircase, the condition and position of the existing supports also need review.
Share photographs, available drawings and examples of designs you like when requesting an estimate. Let us know whether the project is a new build or renovation and whether the work includes landing railings or removal of existing stairs.
Project cost depends on the configuration, materials, railing system, access and installation scope. Confirming these details early makes it easier to compare options and understand what is included in your estimate.
