How Long Does It Take to Get Our Spiral Staircase After Ordering?
Once you’ve placed your order (by calling 785-689-4341 or toll-free at 1-800-536-4341), we collect all necessary information and request a 25% deposit to begin production of your stair. This deposit is nonrefundable.
- Estimated production time: 3–8 weeks (depending on complexity and season)
- Shipping lead time: 7–14 days after build completion
- Wood stairs may take longer than standard steel stairs.
Note: A signed invoice and a 25% deposit are required for orders over $1,000. The full balance (including any customizations) is due before or at the time of delivery. We accept credit cards, and a 4% surcharge applies to card orders.
What Does Shipping Cost on Spiral Staircases?
Shipping costs vary based on:
• Your location
• Stair weight and size
• Carrier availability

How Long Does It Take to Install Our Spiral Stairs?
For standard staircases:
• Installation can take less than 1 hour with 2 people.
• Most time is spent installing the handrail and treads.
• The Luxury Living Spiral Staircase and All-Wood models take slightly longer (up to 2 hours).
Note: All our staircases ship with instructions, and phone support is available if needed.
How Will I Get My Spiral Staircase Through the Door?
Great news—most of our staircases fit through standard doors:
Stair Diameter Fits Through Door Size
4.5′ Spiral 30″ Door
4.75′ Spiral 32″ Door
5′ Spiral 36″ Door
If your access space is tight:
• We ship the staircase in 2 pieces
• Assembly is straightforward—the main difference is a seam in the center of the pole
• All hardware is included
Do Your Spiral Staircases Meet Building Codes?
Yes. If your project requires code compliance, let us know when you place your order. We’ll ensure the staircase includes:
• Proper baluster spacing
• Child safety rails
• Riser bars
• Code-size threads
• Code-compliant landings
We’re experienced with the IRC and IBC Codes—just tell us your requirements.
What if I Need to Cancel My Order?
If you cancel:
• The 25% deposit is non-refundable.
• Orders with special materials or custom designs cannot be refunded, once production has begun.
Contact us as soon as possible if cancellation becomes necessary.
Is a landing required?
In order to meet code a landing is required.
Here are a few reasons why.
- This is the main anchor that keeps you spiral stair rigid.
- It insures you maintain proper headspace.
- It insures the last step equals floor level.
