These winders were built to CODE. The local building inspector in Bar Harbor approved them. Remember that the code is a set of *recommendations*. Local inspectors can approve whatever they want. It's not hard to build winder stairs, but there are a few tricks. If you get stuck and need some serious help or me to do the math for you, I offer you my help. I can call you on the phone.

Would one be able to change the top of the stairs from straight to winder?

We have two winders exactly as you showed. How do we lay engineered hardwood on the winders so that the hardwood from the first floor flows down the steps to the second floor?

I'm trying to build a winder staircase in a tiny house, the space is 600x600mm sq and a height of 1830mm, I'm thinking 56degrees for the first step, 45 for the second, 30 for the third then a landing and and then the last steps normal any advice on this? Been doing my head in for a few weeks

How much of a job would it be to convert a set of straight short steps into longer steps with a winder (the winder would be because there's a wall that you'd run into by making the steps longer)

Should winders cost a lot more labor?

Hello had few questions??

This winder stair doesn't meet current IRC code. You must have a minimum of 6" width on the narrow edge of the tread.
