Common stair and fabrication questions.
Quick answers for custom metal stair, railing, and steel fabrication planning.
Do you design and install custom metal stairs?
Yes. Vancouver Stairs handles site review, fabrication planning, shop drawings, welding, finishing, and installation coordination for custom metal stair and railing projects.
Do metal stair projects need engineering in BC?
Most custom structural stair projects need engineer-reviewed connection details and load assumptions. We coordinate with the project engineer or can help define the drawing package required before fabrication.
What areas do you serve?
We work across Metro Vancouver, the North Shore, the Tri-Cities, the Fraser Valley, and Sea-to-Sky communities including Squamish and Whistler.
How long does a custom stair take?
Simple railing replacements can move quickly, while custom staircases commonly run several weeks once drawings, materials, and finish choices are approved. Site access, engineering, and coating lead times affect the schedule.
