Screed Edge Details
 Arcways exclusive built up screed edge enables the drywall finisher to easily and quickly marry Arcways stair stringer to the finished wall. This critical line of sight now has the ability to be seamless.
Competitors don’t provide an edge for the drywall finisher to rest a trowel. This produces unsightly gaps between finished wall and finished stair stringer edge.

Blind Carriage Fasteners
All Arcways stair carriages are mechanically fastened from underneath, eliminating visible nail holes or larger trim head screw holes. This assembly process intrigues many of our tour guests.
Job built stairs are constructed with underlayment material, which requires fastening on the exposed or finished side. Filled holes result, creating a less than perfect surface for finishing. |

Newel Fasteners
Arcways exclusive hidden newel fasteners are guaranteed to exceed your rail rigidity requirements. This advanced mechanical fastener is entirely hidden and will enable you to fasten your newel post in less than half the time as what is currently being sold at the local lumber yard. Our newel fastener even gives you the opportunity to retighten if the floor system shrinks with just a slight turn of the post.
The lag method used by many competitors with pilot holes and plugs is not friendly to either carpenter or finisher. This method also requires that you remember to in-fill blocking below the sub floor for proper embedment. It’s a slow method of attachment which requires the finisher to color match the visible plug after installation. Railing systems that loosen over time typically are the result of newel posts that have minimal lag depth embedment because no blocking exists below the sub floor. There’s no way of retightening without a messy outcome. |
