Innovation in Custom Staircase Design, Building, & Installation

Arcways Patented Template System

Patent #7,552,564

There’s a trick to figuring out how your custom stair will fit while you’re still during the construction phase. Arcways developed a patented snap-together template that provides a precise floorplan of the stair. It allows you to see exactly how your stair will fit and integrate with adjoining walls and balconies. Here’s a perfect example:

Maui, Hawaii

Even though the stair was being created thousands of miles away, the distance wasn’t an issue for this home in Hawaii. Using our template, they were able to build the curved balcony and prepare for the position of the stairs during early construction. The template allowed the builder and homeowner to discover a potential problem and to make a change while they were still framing. Later when the stairs arrived, it was a perfect fit.

Here’s our process:

  1. Once your stair has been designed, Arcways draws an exact footprint of your stair.
  2. A precise wood stair template is created from this drawing and shipped to the job site during the framing process.
  3. The numbered stair pieces are laid down and locked together like a child’s jigsaw puzzle.
  4. After the stair pieces have been connected, simply slide the wall plates into position and begin framing.
  5. When the stair is installed, it’s a precise fit.
