When it comes to choosing materials for a custom staircase, wood and metal are the two most popular choices among homeowners and businesses. Therefore, it is important to consider the features of both materials before deciding which one to go for. Our next blog will list the benefits of metal staircases and explain why metal staircase wins the battle against wood.
While you may want to argue that wood is in no way inferior to metal in terms of durability, wood stairs require certain treatment and continuous maintenance to remain durable and serve you for a longer period. A staircase made of metal requires pretty much no maintenance (especially after galvanizing) and is extremely durable.
The cost-effectiveness of a metal staircase essentially comes from its durability. A custom metal staircase is essentially an investment you make in your home. Custom steel staircases can last for decades with minimal or no maintenance, whereas wood staircases may need to be repaired or replaced with time.
The design options available for metal staircases are endless. You can choose your metal staircase to be straight, curved or spiral, L-shaped or U-shaped. Choose from aluminum, steel, stainless steel or bronze metal staircases, and combine it with glass or wood for a modern look. Better still, get advice from a professional interior designer to help you choose the perfect metal staircase for your space.
Aluminum, steel and essentially any metal are recyclable and can be easily reused or repurposed. This factor makes metal staircases a great choice if environmental sustainability is important to you.
