What does the opening to the steps look like on the upper deck?

I have question about opening- how large is opening for enough head room to go down and up steps? Love those steps!

    Hi candie615,


    The opening for this set of stairs was existing when we entered the project. There are a number of factors for stair openings - typically they are 3' or wider and depending upon the pitch of the stair - the length of the opening starts around 10 or 12' long. Most building codes require a clearance vertically above the stair tread of at least 6'-8". You should consult a design professional or qualified contractor to determine the clearances needed for stairs where you live.


    If you have other questions, please feel free to call us directly and we will connect you to the project architect to share more about this project.
