When a Toronto family wanted to do something special with their unfinished basement, we were among the first people they called. Staircase railings for their project was at the top of the list. Their children had grown up and started families of their own, and now, with several grandchildren around, they wanted a space set aside just for family recreation. Since they had talked about doing something with that old unfinished basement for years, and had no available space left above ground, this seemed like the obvious choice. They discussed their plans with us in detail, brought up a few minor concerns about the safety of their grandkids, and asked us for our professional opinion. We were delighted to be a part of their project, and showed them the variety of styles and materials we could use.
Beautiful – And Safe – Staircase Railings in Toronto
The wife had this vision of a large opening in the floor above the basement, with a lovely, curved staircase leading down into what they were calling the ‘play room.’ Surrounded by wooden railings, this opening would let them watch their grandchildren from the ground floor when they couldn’t be down there with them. To insure that everyone was safe, sturdy wooden railings would need to be placed all the way around the hole. According to her sketches, the staircase would start at the back wall of the living room, behind the hole, and curve back inward to follow the inside wall of the basement below. They also planned to put a temporary toddler gate at the top of the staircase, which they could take down when their grandchildren got older.
At Toronto Railings, we understand that a family’s needs are constantly changing. Since we have a large selection of materials and styles to work from, we are ready for whatever comes our way.
