Stainless steel balustrades have become the latest trend in staircase renovations, as they can transform any plain, old room into a more current and contemporary space.
Here at Abbott-Wade Ltd, we offer our customers a premier range of stainless steel staircase parts, which can be combined with glass for a fresher feel or wood for a more traditional look.
“Entering our front door now is an entirely new and exciting experience!”
“A really outstanding job and we are very pleased with our beautiful new staircase. Adam & Anthony were superb, informing us all through the installation and delivering a great result and also keeping everything neat and tidy. Peter from a design perspective and Wiggy from Aftercare were also great and very professional. Thanks again!”
Glass remains a very popular choice for our customers. Back in 2016 we ran a series of articles about the process of producing our toughened balustrade glass to meet our high standards. We select experienced, proven glass suppliers carefully to ensure we can install excellent quality glass into our staircases. Our suppliers receive our glass drawings as a CAD file from our design team and then precision cut each panel before sending them for toughening.
The articles cover the glass cutting, toughening and bevelling processes as detailing of the standards we work to inline with the Glass & Glass Federations criteria.
We’re another year older & another year wiser. Our wealth of experience continues to grow with the the passing of another year which has proved as eventful & as memorable as ever.
At Abbott-Wade we understand the importance of the staircase. Not only does it serve as a functional part of your home, allowing you ascend and descend from one floor to the next, it is normally the first thing you see when you go through your front door. Because of this many homeowners take great pride in the appearance of their staircase.
Since the mid-1990s we have been setting the standards throughout various aspects of the staircase renovation industry. Nothing pleases us more than being able help homeowners to achieve the staircase look they desire. For in excess of 20 years we have provided a selection of staircase refurbishments in homes up and down the UK – we can even provide a new flight of stairs.
One of the popular trends we have have seen over recent years is customers moving away from traditionally turned spindles in favour of glass. This is largely due to a desire to create a bright contemporary space within the heart of the home but there are practical implications to be considered too. The original staircase (pictured right) was painted white in an effort to lighten the hallway but the transformation to oak and glass adds the warming tones of oak with the open feeling of glass which allows unobstructed light to fill the hallway. The new 10mm toughened glass panels means there are no gaps between spindles to collect dust and the absence of glass clamps offers a more streamlined look. An added wall handrail makes a further safety feature while the new carpet injects colour with the stripes creating a further illusion of extra space.
Here at Abbott-Wade, we take great pride in being able to offer a massive selection of staircase styles and designs. Since our establishment in 1996 we have been at the forefront of the staircase renovation industry and are not going anywhere! The aim of our business is being able to help the redecoration of homes across the length and breadth of the country by refurbishing staircases or by providing a completely new flight of stairs.
As homeowners look to improve and freshen up their property, many opt for a bespoke design which opens up their hallway. We provide the open staircase which creates a free-flowing look without diminishing the functionality of the flight.
