The beauty and durability of a staircase depends largely on the stair treads. So much so that they are often considered the main feature of a staircase. That’s why Ackworth House offers one of the finest selections of stair treads in the country. From sophisticated timber to modern concrete, our stair step treads are designed and built with the materials that your home or office needs for a vibrant, functional and stylish staircase.
We also accommodate customised projects that call for non-slip treads that help prevent tripping or slipping incidents. For these step treads, we apply stainless steel strips to the nosing, raised 2mm above the surface so as to not detract from the design. Much like our other products, these non-slip treads are designed to look refined without compromising their purpose.
Our products are made from high-grade materials that went through a thorough quality assessment to ensure their resilience and durability from the wear and tear of constant use. Moreover, our workers uphold high standards and work diligently to produce outstanding results that meet New Zealand’s building standards.
Wood is a staple material in interior design, especially for stairs. Wooden stairwells have been prized for their durability and aesthetic value. They contribute to the warm and cosy atmosphere that people would love to come home to. For property owners who prefer a traditional and sophisticated style, wood treads are the way to go.
Ackworth House offers a wide range of timber treads that make for a beautiful architectural staircase. Our durable and versatile, wooden treads create a statement, wherever they are in the room.
By choosing wooden treads, you take a piece of the outdoors into your house or business. It provides a natural and comforting tone to the entire space. Traditional charm surrounds wood stair treads. Like in many old residences and buildings, these lend the halls grandeur and old-world sophistication that never goes out of style.
Timber treads, for instance, are versatile; they complement various styles of floorings, walls, decorations and themes. They add simple yet classy flair to any space. Residents and businesspeople who have wooden stairs can redecorate their halls in various ways without having to worry that the stairs will stick out like a sore thumb.
Ackworth House manufactures a wide selection of timber stair treads, including:
Our timber stair treads are also available in various profiles, including solid, L-shaped, tread and riser, and slimline. For those looking for more variations, our treads can be oiled or stained in a wide range of colours and finishes for a more customised look. While timber is durable and solid, it is versatile enough to be utilised in a variety of ways.
As the modern minimalist movement in architecture continues, concrete stair treads are becoming the new favourite among homeowners and businesspeople alike. Strong and durable, these stair step treads are long lasting and they give the space a clean and modern industrial appeal that stands the test of time. However, Ackworth House takes things a step further by pairing these concrete treads with steel stair stringers. This combination results in a subdued yet stylish stairwell.
Ackworth House elevates the look of your stairwell to complement your space’s overall architectural design. We offer polished concrete stair treads that match a modern minimalist residence or a sleek industrial commercial establishment. Their surfaces are polished smooth to make them easier to clean and maintain. They are also more durable and resistant to heavy foot traffic because, unlike their unpolished counterpart, polished concrete does not trap water and other particles that can erode the material.
Concrete stairs are an ideal choice for clients who want a stairwell that blends in with concrete floors. By choosing concrete treads, you create a seamless look for your space. For those looking for more variations, our treads are also available in a wide range of colours and finishes, such as exposed aggregate and honed and polished.
We have a variety of tread designs that include tread and riser; L-shaped, solid, and slimline timber; and granite or stone overlay which aren’t exclusive for concrete floors. You can even pair them with other types of floorings like hardwood. With the flexibility of concrete steps, you can create many interior design combinations.
Ackworth House will help you find the perfect balance so that your staircase will complement your space without looking too plain or boring.
