Working with architects, contractors, designers, developers, builders and homeowners
There's more to Crescent than you may
think. Our business was built on an
innovative approach to the design and
manufacture of spiral stairs, making use
of a modular system to offer architects
and specifiers an unrivalled combination
of economy, speed and design flexibility.
This was like nothing the market had seen
before and helped to establish Crescent as
the name in spiral stair solutions.
Since then, we have built on this initial
success, developing our portfolio and
broadening our skill base to become one
of the leading designers, manufacturers
and installers of spiral, helical and straight
flight stairs.
So, while the supply of ‘standard' steel
spirals remains a core part of our business,
you are just as likely to find us working
alongside architects and interior
designers, developers and builders, and
even DIY homeowners to deliver creative,
contemporary and aesthetically-delightful
stair solutions.
Our projects range from external spiral
fire escapes for new build office parks,
through internal dog-leg staircases for
modular buildings to helical staircases in
residential apartment complexes.
So whatever your project, talk to Crescent,
because alongside design, manufacture
and installation, our experience also
delivers complete peace of mind.

Wherever there's a need to provide access to or from a different level ofa building, interior or exterior, we can help. Whether it's a stock solutionbased on our portfolio of modular design components or a bespokeconstruction designed to meet a specific brief, we have the experienceand engineering expertise to deliver just whatever you need.
Stairs for every application: modular, commercial,corporate, residential, industrial and public
From functional, galvanised fire escapes on
industrial units to sweeping, wood-
finished stairways providing a focal point
to corporate reception areas, Crescent
stairs can be found in every type of
building.
They provide stylish, space-saving
solutions in open plan offices; they're used
to 'lift' the look of otherwise utilitarian
buildings; they add value to New York-
style loft apartment developments; and
they help ensure timely, cost-effective
completion of modular construction work.
In short, whatever the application, we can
work with you to provide the answer
you're looking for.
Unlimited configuration possibilitiesThe design opportunities are endless. As
well as spiral, helical and straight flight
stairs, we can also incorporate landing
areas, wheelchair refuges, canopies,
security cages and galleries to meet any
design requirement from a simple single
storey rise through to complex
constructions serving multiple floors.
The fact that our stairs are modular in
design also makes them ideal for use in
pre-fabricated buildings systems. Having
worked closely with many of the leading
names in this field, we have valuable
experience in areas including residential,
commercial, military and custodial.
Technical support at no extra chargeOur field-based technical advisors can
provide as much advice as you need in the
critical design phase of a project, helping
to ensure that you get best value for
money and an end product that answers
your brief in full.

The flexibility we offer in stair configuration is matched only by the breadth of finishes we offer, either from our extensive range of standard components or by developing custom solutions. Your proposed stair system can be visualised - and then adapted until you're 100% happy - using our own bespoke software.
A focus on design from start to finish - via our own powerful CAD system
Our powerful CAD software - unique to
Crescent - is among the most advanced of
its kind, giving us the ability not only to
turn your concept into a detailed working
drawing but also to generate real view
visualisations and photo rendered
animations of the stair in situ. And this
means you can assess a range of different
design aspects before committing to
final specifications.
Colour will be an important factor and all
components can be supplied powder
coated in virtually any BS or RAL colour or
simply primed or galvanised. We can offer
exceptional flexibility in balustrade design
too, with a choice of verticals, running
rails, plain or perforated sheet panels and
glass infills.
Treads can be supplied in steel (ribbed,
rubber-covered or recessed to accept a
screed or timber infill), in standard or
exotic timbers (plain or recessed for a
carpet infill) or even in glass, while
handrails can be galvanised, powder
coated, PVC covered, hardwood, polished
brass or stainless steel.
In other words, the design permutations
are virtually endless, giving you the
flexibility and freedom to create a bespoke
solution at an off-the-shelf price, all built
to be compliant with BS EN 5395 and
building regulations as applicable.
And it is this versatility - the fact that our
staircases can be used to make powerful
architectural statements as well as to solve
practical challenges as economically as
possible - that makes Crescent the obvious
choice whether you're an architect, a
contractor, a developer or an end user.
