Fabricated galvanised staircase

Mild Steel Staircase with Winder & Landing Installed in Crosby, Cumbria – Galvanised Finish for Durability

🏗️ Project Overview

Following a successful previous installation, our returning customer invited J Johnstone Engineering back for Stage 2 of their property renovation in Crosby, North West Cumbria. This next phase included the fabrication and installation of a lower flight of stairs with a landing, designed to serve a newly formed doorway yet to be installed in the photo.

This staircase was designed to fit into a tight space, using a bottom winder section to allow for a safe, code-compliant turn at the base of the stairs. All work was completed in accordance with building regulations and built to last.


🔧 Project Details

  • Type: Mild steel staircase with landing and bottom winder
  • Location: Crosby, North West Cumbria
  • Client: Returning residential customer
  • Design: Space-saving configuration with bottom winder
  • Material: Mild steel construction
  • Finish: Fully galvanised for rust resistance and a clean, silver-toned industrial look
  • Treads: Made from 6mm durbar plate (checker plate) for grip and durability
  • Purpose: Functional staircase access to new doorway during home renovation

Fabricated entirely in-house, the staircase was delivered and installed with precision. The winder section was custom-fabricated to suit the available footprint, ensuring maximum usability and safe clearance.


🏁 The Result

The finished staircase is plain, functional, and robust — exactly what the client needed. The silver galvanised finish not only provides excellent protection against corrosion but also gives a clean, industrial appearance suited to the renovation’s style.
