Step 3 · Conquering the Corner: Measuring Your Landing or Winder Steps

This is where your initial identification truly pays off! * **For a Landing:** If your turn features a welcoming landing, simply measure its full width and its full length. You'll treat this as one distinct, custom-sized piece, designed to seamlessly complement your straight stair treads. Remember, for optimal safety and aesthetics, your landing should ideally be at least 36 inches deep and as wide as your stair flights. This ensures a consistent, secure surface. * **For Winder Steps:** If your staircase gracefully navigates the turn with winder steps, each wedge-shaped step is a unique canvas! You'll need to measure each winder individually. For every winder tread, carefully measure its narrow inner edge, its wider outer edge, and its depth. This meticulous approach ensures that your custom Oak Valley Designs treads will perfectly hug each unique shape, providing unmatched safety, stability, and a truly bespoke look. This is how we ensure 'A better way to tread' for every angle of your home.
