Do they meet the building regulation and can they be used inside a house to access the 2 nd floor?

In MezzaninesOnline there are different types of staircases: some for private use, usually located in small spaces, some for general use, wider and more comfortable, suitable for workplaces or commercial premises.

Defining the intended use of the staircase is basic in most standards. Staircases are generally classified as service or private stairs, as well as general or public use stairs, the latter being more demanding.

There are in place many regulations for staircases in the different countries in which MezzaninesOnline is present. Therefore, it is difficult to determine whether a staircase type complies with a particular normative.

Our stairs are designed by defining the general criteria for each type of staircase, so that these are well defined and checked against those in the regulations:

  • Usable width.
  • Rung tread and riser dimensions.
  • Permissible step and staircase loads.
  • Handrail heights.


However, some regulations also refer to very specific construction parameters and details:

  • Material of the step.
  • Railing and handrail design.
  • Type of riser.
  • Step nosing (or overlap between steps).
  • Ceiling height clearance.

There are very few international standards that cover the design of staircases, one of which is ISO 14122 "Safety of machinery. Permanent means of access to machinery and industrial installations", whose criteria are suitable for our category EASILY ACCESSIBLE STAIRS . For all other regulations, the general criteria should be verified, which can be easily compared with the data in the Technical Data Sheets.

If you have a specific regulation that your staircase must comply with, you can ask us and we will try to help you in your decision.


Can I vary the direction of rotation of the spiral stairs?

Yes, the direction of rotation can vary.


Can I add extra steps?

The stairs include the maximum number of steps that are required in their maximum heights. The more the height is reduced, the less steps will be installed. However, you can acquire additional steps as spare parts, the number of steps is designed according to the inclination of each staircase though. An excessive number of steps would reduce the going available for treading, specially important when going down.


Can the spiral stairs be installed inside the mezzanine?

Yes. You will have to acquire the beam for interior stairs.


How much weight do the steps support?

Consult the data sheet for each staircase.


Can I buy the stairs with just one side of railing?

No, you can’t.
