Open stair risers with zigzag stringers deliver a striking modern aesthetic with a rhythmic visual effect. The open risers lend an airy, floating quality to the staircase, enhancing light flow. Zigzag stringers, mirroring the sequential alternation of treads and absent risers, offer a compelling visual dynamic while providing solid structural support. The zigzag profile forms an interesting repeating pattern, amplifying the staircase's architectural appeal. These design features merge to create a staircase that, despite its minimalist design, becomes a focal point in the space. The blend of open risers and zigzag stringers offers a balance of style, function, and innovation.
Open Zigzag Stair Profiles are constructed with typical stair tread thicknesses between 1.5”-4” (3.8-10.2 cm) and allowable nosing overlaps of 1”-1.5” (2.5-3.8 cm).
Stair treads have a minimum allowable depth of 11” (28 cm) with riser heights between 4”-7” (10-18 cm). Stair nosings can protrude between 1”-1.5” (2.5-3.8 cm) with a maximum riser angle of 30 degrees.
