Mill Stairs
Mill stairs are a very steep staircase variant — typically exceeding a 45° pitch — designed to bridge a significant height difference over a very short plan length. They are most commonly used as access to loft rooms, mezzanines, cellars, or utility areas. Structurally, they rely on alternating left and right treads, so each step has full width on at least one side — making them surprisingly comfortable when correctly proportioned. The nosing of each tread can be made from a contrasting colour of wood or fitted with an LED strip to aid orientation during descent. A simple handrail or classic timber balustrade is typically included.
