Who We Are
Founded in 2000 by Paul and Mike, The Stair Shop Ltd is celebrating 20+ years in business. Since Paul’s retirement, the business is now owned and run by son Mike and his wife Sam, along with a fantastic team they have built over the years. Customer satisfaction is of paramount importance to us. Our ethos is to let the customer make the final decision, which is why we do not employ pushy salesmen. Instead, we have a team of honest, genuine and knowledgeable staff who will help you every step of the way.
What We Do
As a specialist staircase manufacturer, we can manufacture anything from standard flights to grand bespoke staircases using the very latest in CNC technology. Our team works with a variety of materials including pine, oak, stainless steel, wrought iron and glass, with the majority of the parts being manufactured in-house at our Stockport based factory. Alongside our manufacturing facility, we also have our own onsite spraying and pre-finishing facility allowing us to supply all of your staircase components in a finish of your choice.

Once ready, our installers will visit your property to fit your new staircase, ensuring minimal disruption and mess.
Glass Fixing Types
Seamless
This is where the 10mm toughened glass sits in a groove in the handrail and baserail and secured using a clear silicone. Sometimes this is not recommended when two pieces of glass are very close to each other as this can be hard to clean in between. Once fixed, the glass is not removable.
Channel
This is where the 17.5mm toughened laminated glass is frameless and is secured using an aluminium base shoe channel. This is usually fixed down to the floor on landing areas where bolted or sandwich can’t be used. If you don't like the look of the base shoe, we can clad it to match your chosen staircase material. This can be used as glass alone or glass with a handrail fixed on top.
Bolted/Sandwich
This is where the 17.5mm toughened laminated glass is frameless and is secured to the side of the stringer using bolts. If you prefer a more minimalist look, we can cover the bolts with a wooden fascia to match the staircase. This can be used as glass alone or glass with a handrail fixed on top.
Clamped
This is where the 10mm toughened glass is secured using either a D-shape or square metal clamp fixed to the handrail and baserail. This is often recommended if the glass needs to be removed for any reason, i.e. cleaning or painting behind.
