Understanding Your Staircase Dimensions Plan & Side View Guide
Our detailed plan view and side view staircase drawings provide the essential measurements needed for accurate installation. Each drawing includes:
Total Width The overall width of the staircase, including strings
Total Rise The finished floor-to-floor height, ensuring proper fit
Total Going The horizontal distance from the back of the top riser (where the staircase meets the trimmer joist) to the front nosing of the bottom step
Important Installation Note:
The stair stringers extend beyond the total going measurement, but they can be trimmed on-site during installation for a perfect fit.
