Stair Riser

A stair "riser" is the vertical element of a set of stairs. Typically, the riser is a 1x8 board nailed to the stringers. However, sometimes there is no board at all - the risers are "open".

 

How to Build Stairs

Building stairs is a job that experienced carpenters know requires accurate measurements and diligent work habits.

 

Fixing Stairs

It's important to comprehend the type of staircase you have and the construction of its basic parts; this will help you make quick, efficient, quality repairs. If you have access to the underside of the staircase, start your investigation there.

 

 

How to Build Stair Stringers

Stair stringers form the backbone of a set of stairs. By code, stairs need to be at least 36" wide. Although it's usually possible to get away with just using two stringers, we recommend you add a third one down the middle. This extra stringer will ensure your stairs are exceptionally rigid.
