Spiral Staircase Isle of Man
Case Study- Model 71
This spiral was supplied to a property developer involved with a large extension to a property in Onchan, Isle of Man. To access a small mezzanine deck, our client required a space saving staircase with a touch of design.
Our model 71 spiral staircase was selected in a 1500mm diameter and beech treads. A walnut stainwas applied in the factory and stainless steel riser bars were included to reduce the gap between the treads. Matching landing balustrade was supplied across the mezzanine floor to complete the spiral staircase Isle of Man project.
Wooden Spiral Staircase
The model 71 spiral stair is a bespoke staircase. It is constructed with solid timber treads and circular steel barrels which slid over the centre column. These cylindrical barrels act as spacers between the treads and are generally finished in stainless steel or powder coated.
For stability and strength, the wood for the model 71 spiral staircase is manufactured in hardwood, most popular options being beech, oak and ash. It can however be manufactured in any hardwood with maple, birch and walnut available to name a few.
The balustrade is constructed with a timber or a steel handrail and the infill below is generally enclosed with vertical stainless steel spindles. There is also the option to enclosed the spiral staircase with curved glass or acrylic panels or opt for horizontal stainless steel bars or indeed curved perforated steel panels.
The timber in the model 71 spiral staircases is often oiled or varnished in the factory prior to dispatch. Being a bespoke product we have often supplied the wood stained or white waxed and we have supplied the entire staircase with untreated timber to allow finishing on site.
The model 71 spiral stair, like the spiral staircase Isle of Man featured here on this page, is a bespoke creation. Each model is carefully drawn ensuring that the entry and exit points are correct and there is enough headroom allowed. The spiral stair can accommodate various differently shaped platforms steps which can be made to suit your floor.

Comment on Spiral Staircase Isle of Man- Model 71 from Complete Stair Systems
Nick Rackham
"It was important to achieve the 600mm clear tread width on this spiral (required as a secondary spiral staircase) but the opening was less than we needed. At the design stage we shortened the platform slightly, pulling the centre column off ‘centre’ to enable the spiral to fit with enough knuckle gap"
