When you need to fit in a limited space, houses grow up. The problem is only that inside the structure the space turns out to be very small, and its lion’s share takes the stairs to the upper floors. Minimizing losses is a task that many designers and builders fight on the solution of. I propose to study the results. The staircase should not only be compact, but also safe basic requirements for staircase and safe, a staircase that meets several requirements is considered.
- The correct ratios of the height and width of the steps are observed. So, if the height of the riser is multiplied by 2 and fold with the width of the step, the amount should be 60-64 cm, that is, the average step of a person. Too wide steps are as inconvenient as too narrow. You can increase the width of the step using an overhanging drooping, but the ledge should not exceed 5 cm.
- The rise angle lies in the range from 23 to 37 °.
- The width is at least 80 cm.
Piece staircase, the most familiar option for most of us is a spiral staircase. The width of the opening will be equal to its double width.

The first photo showed the most convenient position of the legs during lifting. On the second – during the descent. In both cases, the use of the stairs can be unsafe. Photo from the channel Alexei Luthenko is the most terrible option that I met is a fairly steep and wide staircase with screw steps between two spans. Going down on it, I want to hold on to the railing, but at a certain moment the steps under the feet are already becoming already, they make a turn, and then level again. This is a real obstacle course! Goose stepkroma of the screw stairs, to save space, you can use the design of the goose step.

Let’s start with the most familiar options – attic folding. They are conveniently laid out and fold, at the same time being a hatch. An example of a attic staircase is an interesting way to save a place – a staircase that folds into a plane along the wall. In a folded state, the staircase practically does not take up space.

The steps are integrated into the interior in the form of shelves and furniture. They only remotely resemble the stairs, visually unloading the space.
