   To start, use a reliable tape measure to determine the dimensions of your stairs. First, measure the **width of a single stair tread** from wall to wall or from stringer to stringer (the side supports of the staircase). In the video, the individual measures the width of a stair tread using a tape measure. Record this measurement carefully. Next, measure the **depth of the stair tread**, which is the horizontal surface where you step. Finally, measure the **height of the stair riser**, which is the vertical part of the stair. It is crucial to measure several steps, especially if there are variations, and use the largest measurements to ensure sufficient material coverage for all stairs. Also, count the total number of individual stairs, including any landings that might require carpet.
