Customer Q&A
What are floating stairs?
Brandon W.
While floating staircases may not literally float, our expertise lies in crafting building code-compliant staircases with a minimalist aesthetic. Our definition of floating stairs encompasses any staircase featuring open risers, where the treads are not interconnected. Instead, they are supported by one or more stair stringers positioned beneath the treads or along the sides.
Where do you ship your stairs?
Jamie M.
We ship our stairs directly to consumers all across North America from our facility in Collegeville, Pennsylvania. All of our stairs are custom built to your specs and then shipped directly to your door for easy installation.
Are floating stairs safe?
David R.
Yes, floating stairs are very safe! The stringers (the high strength steel support beams that support the steps) of these stairs are engineered to be robust and rigid, providing strong support for the treads and ensuring stability and safety during use. They are designed to distribute weight evenly and prevent sagging or flexing.
Do floating stairs meet building code?
Luke G.
Yes, Paragon’s floating stairs meet local building code requirements. These stairs are designed and manufactured to meet relevant building codes and safety standards, including requirements for tread width, riser height, handrail height, and balustrade spacing. Compliance with these codes ensures that the stairs are safe for use in residential and commercial settings

I would highly recommend paragon stairs to anyone looking to purchase a staircase. The process was seamless! Everyone I dealt with was patient, knowledgeable, kind, extremely helpful and prompt communicators. Our family couldn’t be more pleased with the stairs we purchased and the team that paragon stairs provides! Thank you for a great experience!

We bought our house a year ago and wanted to renovate right away. The first thing you see when you walk in is the staircase. We saw a Paragon floating staircase and thought it was beautiful and so well made. Not only was it a great product, but also competitively priced. Our designer, Jason, made the process so simple and gave us a lot of confidence in our choice. It’s the perfect statement to open our art collection for guests when they walk in and has even become part of it. Our Paragon team was responsive and it was easy to get a real person on the phone to answer questions.

We ordered a custom staircase for one of our projects in Grand Cayman. Paragon assisted with shipping through our freight forwarder in Miami and the product arrived within the timeframe given. Our clients were extremely happy and we will definitely be considering them again for future projects.
