Before you order

Floating stair tread questions.

Prepare the details for your custom staircase project.

What are floating stair treads?

Floating stair treads are the horizontal surfaces you step on in an open staircase. The wood treads connect to a supporting stair system; their open appearance comes from the stair structure and the spaces between steps.

Can floating stair treads be made to custom dimensions?

Share the required width, depth, thickness, tread count, and support drawings with your quote request. We can discuss fabrication options around your staircase specifications before any dimensions are finalized.

What wood and finish options can I choose?

Tell us the grain, color, and finish you prefer and share photos of nearby floors or cabinetry. Available wood and finish options can be discussed during your project review.

Can wood treads work with cable or glass railing?

Wood treads can complement either style. The railing, supports, and attachment details need to be coordinated with the stair system and installer before tread fabrication.

What should I send for a floating stair tread quote?

Send your location, tread count, dimensions, stair plans or support specifications, and inspiration photos. Include your preferred wood appearance, finish, and timeline. Use the contact form and choose Floating Stair Treads as your project type.
