In Britain, we\u2019re lucky to have millions of period homes. Whilst these properties are full of character and history, the spaces inside often aren\u2019t designed for modern, open living. One way to make better use of your home is by moving or re-orienting your staircase. With some careful planning, this change of location can make it easier to move around the home, provide additional storage space, and make rooms light and welcoming. If you\u2019re thinking about changing your staircase, here are a few things to consider:<\/p>\n

\"Straight<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    A Change of Sides or Direction<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In narrower homes, moving the staircase from one side of the home to the other or changing the direction of a staircase running across the property can make a big difference. Older terraced properties often feature a single upstairs bathroom which can only be accessed via a bedroom. By moving the staircase across the house to align with the bathroom, it is often possible to create corridor access, making the room more easily accessible and potentially adding value to the home.<\/p>\n

    \"Combination<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      Doubling Back<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you\u2019d like to move your staircase to a new location but there isn\u2019t enough space or headroom for a standard straight staircase<\/a> then it might be time to add a twist. Kited<\/a> and Combination staircases<\/a> feature a quarter turn at the top or bottom. This allows them to fit on shorter walls and also provides an attractive feature for your home. We can provide these staircases in solid timber or cast aluminium to suit your tastes.<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        Going Around<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        If flexibility and space saving are your absolute priorities then it has to be a spiral staircase<\/a>. Spiral staircases have a compact footprint and look equally at home in the corner or the centre of a room. This means you can really get creative with the design of your home, turning the humble staircase into a beautiful focal point.<\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \n

          Floating Away<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          If you\u2019re looking to retain the existing staircase location but want to replace it with something a little more stylish then we have plenty of different designs and styles to suit any home<\/a>. One great option is an open staircase which provides adaptable space beneath and helps to keep rooms flooded with natural light.<\/p>\n
