Stair runners · For the trade
The stair runner measure sheet.
A stair is the one job that does not fit a width and a length. Give the showroom the stair as it stands, steps, treads, risers, landings and turns, and it comes back as a quote with the yardage worked out by the people who will cut it.
Measure the stair Runner width and reveal Waterfall or Hollywood
Measure sheet
Nine measurements, then send it.
Fill in what you have. The drawing shows the runner on the tread with the reveal each side. Add the stair to a quote request with the rugs for the same project, or send it on its own.
The measure sheet needs JavaScript. Email the measurements to Julie@interiorsfineflooring.com and the showroom will quote the stair.
How to measure
What to take off the stair.
- StepsCount every step the runner covers, the top one included. Count pie-shaped steps separately.
- TreadFront to back, from the face of the riser to the tip of the nosing.
- RiserThe vertical face, from tread to the underside of the nosing above.
- WidthThe clear tread between skirt boards or balusters, not the nominal stair width.
- LandingsEach one, width by depth, and whether the runner turns on it.
- Pie stepsThe tread depth at the narrow end, the wide end and the walk line, in the notes.
Final yardage is set by the measure on site, which allows for pattern match, the turn at each landing and the waste on every pie-shaped step. This sheet gets the quote started with the right stair.
