Hello everyone,

since I noticed the topic about stair dimensions in another thread and have been uncertain for a few weeks whether the stair measurements are acceptable, I’m bringing it here for discussion.

My only experience is with the stairs at my parents’ house, which are 2.30m x 1.65m (7 ft 7 in x 5 ft 5 in) and, in my opinion, comfortable to use.

Attached is the image with the measurements provided by the architect. The stairwell dimensions are exactly 2m x 2m (6 ft 7 in x 6 ft 7 in).

What do you think?

Just as a side note: How high does the staircase need to be? So, room height plus ceiling = ?

Standard construction height = 2.67m (8 ft 9 in) - 0.15m (6 in)

For cats, risers are a must, I agree.

If anyone here has no problems climbing the stairs, it’s my cats. On the contrary, they especially like to lie at the edge and look through the openings in all directions.

However, we now have closed risers to prevent the hair from drifting through the entire house like snow.

Riser heights for small dogs!

Do you mean a total height of 2.67m (8 ft 9 in) plus 0.15m (6 in) floor thickness? That would mean we have a staircase that needs to cover 2.82m (9 ft 3 in).

I mentioned earlier that our staircase is the same size.
I don’t have any pictures available right now, but it looks roughly like this:
