Details of the Design

2 flight straight staircase with floor edge glass balustrade and stainless steel handrail.

Who is the user?

Commercial shared office space.

Constraints / challenges?

This was a typical project for the Elite Metal Group. The contractor was working against extremely tight timescales as the shared office space had clients waiting to move in.

We were able to liaise with the Main Contractor to work alongside teams already working on site to install the staircase without disrupting work schedules or causing any unnecessary delays.

Fabrication Detail:

This industrial staircase was made
of mild steel with double stringers
and an integrated glass track system
to accept a 17.5mm thick clear,
toughened and laminated glass
balustrade. To complete the look,
steel treads were incorporated and a
striking stainless steel handrail made
from 42mm tubes added.

Installation Detail:

The Elite Metal Group were proud
to manage every aspect of this
staircase from concept design,
project management, manufacturing,
transporting and installation using our
own in-house experienced Teams.

Why was the Elite Metal Group chosen for this project?

This is the first time that we have worked with City Inc. and we’re pleased that they decided to call upon our 70+ years of staircase expertise for this memorable staircase, that is the focal point of a new creative shared work space in central London. It was a pleasure working along the City Inc. Team who genuinely wanted to understand the design rationale and installation process. We look forward to working alongside them again on future projects.

The Finished project

The Elite Metal Group completed this staircase on time and for the agreed budget. The staircase is without doubt the heart of the building and a memorable addition to this commercial space. The office space now has a strong industrial feel with modern undertones which works well for the digital website teams who will soon be moving in and calling this space their office.
