Step 2 · Precision for Landings or Winder Steps

Now, let's focus on the heart of your U-turn: the mid-landing or winder steps. For any landings, you'll want to measure their full width and length with care. Remember, each landing will be a custom-sized carpet piece, designed to bring warmth and elegance to your home. For optimal safety, ensure any landing is at least 36 inches deep in the direction of travel and as wide as your staircase. If your U-shaped staircase embraces the charm of winder steps instead of a landing, the process is slightly different but just as crucial for safety and style. You'll need to measure each individual wedge step, meticulously noting its narrow inner edge, its wider outer edge, and its depth. This attention to detail ensures your custom-made treads provide a better way to tread for everyone in your family.
