Strings
Strings are the structural members of a staircase which run longitudinally from top to bottom. Generally, they are at the sides of a staircase and provide the main structural strength of the staircase.
TYPES OF STRING
- STANDARD STRING
- CUT STRING
- INVERTED CUT STRING

STANDARD STRING
Standard Strings can be used in conjunction with all types of Treads and Risers allowing a variety of styles to be achieved, from traditional through to modern.
CUT STRING
Cut Strings allow the profile of the Treads and Risers to be seen from the side of the staircase. Depending on style of tread and riser used, both classic and contemporary styles can be achieved.
INVERTED CUT STRING
This is a modern twist on the cut string style.
