I have another video called: "Floating stairs construction explanation (HD)" where I explain why the stairs are built like that and I answer all of your questions. Plus, I show the room upstairs.
Very unique design and proper installation of stairs, this will surely enhance the beauty of house’s interior. Nice work.
Thank you so much.
Oh, that is too sharp!! Love it!
A lot of negative comments. I'm not a big fan of stairs like this but I have to give credit where it's due. He designed them, got some guys who knew what they were doing and made use of a space that kinda sucks to get too. Maybe he didn't want a ladder. It also doesn't look like a high traffic area.. It's easy to criticize. Good job man! Hope you enjoy your house.
Suits the space and the limitations. Good work
Thanks
I love them. I'd buy 7 of them right now for a small project if they were being made. Makes me wonder what my local DIY store might have in framing material that might work.
Because they are well attached to the wall. They work just perfect.
The point is having some original, nice design and comfortable stairs. And believe it or not, this stairs are all this things. I invented them and they work just fine. The upper room is a normal room. When you close the door, you barely notice that there's a room there.
There is a rail. It's attached to the wall. This is really a well thought design for a limited space, though certainly not for everyone. I would consider something like that when my kids are grown and off to college :)
the guy with the glasses is doing all the work
Hahaha
I love it now my hubby has some work to do for sure
I wanted some original stairs, so I decided to design them myself and have someone make them for me. I am so happy with the result. They work just perfect. The room upstairs is an sculpture studio for my girlfriend. This room upstairs is 18 m2 or 194 ft2. Thanks for your comment.
I know that it seems quite a step, but it's not, it has to be exactly like it is, to be able to enter in the upper room and to go down from it. You are right about the open edges, but you just have to be careful, and I prefer them that way, much nicer than with wood, from my point of view. And with just metal they look more modern. But thanks for your comments.
I'd slap some wood (or even glass) treads on top to extend the steps closer to the end of the doorway; unless you already have that in mind. The steps look a bit small. I like the design of the metal though; very industrial cool.
I really don't know. I weight 77 kg and it works just fine. I didn't buy them from any store or company, it's just an idea that I had, and ask someone to build them for me, so I don't have any technical specifications or anything. They work just perfect for us. Thanks for your question.
@SparkyRedfern
I didn't bought them anywhere, I draw them and make them build for me. They are made of iron and screwed to the wall with a 20 cm long iron bars, with some chemical cue. The board in the beginning was to mark the exact position for each tread in the wall. You make sure you have the perfect distance of each one in the wood and then you make the needed holes in it and then you mark the holes into the wall with a pencil in order to make the final holes in the wall.
Both the handrail and the stair treads are too thin, but the brackets under the treads are too noticeable. It would look better to make the treads out of nice thick pieces of wood, and the handrail too. Then paint the brackets the same color as the wall so they pretty much disappear.
Nice idea too. Thanks
The top step upto the upper level looks like quite a step. and the open edges mean a hell of a gash if you hit your head.I kind of thought they would put a solid wood tread on top and go for a modern design.
love the end result! :-)
Voltagehz, I just give my opinion. If you don't think that is safe, don't built it. It's that simple. Don't get mad at me. I am just showing a video of my own house with a floating stairs that I have design. If you don't like them or you think that they will not be safe enough it's fine. For I am not going to desinstall them because you think that they are not safe. It's really important that each person can do whatever he or she wants inside his own home.
I know that it seems like you say. But it's not. On your way up, the final step it's just right, because any other higher step would make you touch the ceiling with your head. In other words, when you step in the higher step like it is right now, you almost touch the ceiling with your head. So it's just perfect. On your way down, when you are inside the upper room, you have to sit, because the hole doesn't let you pass through, if you don't. So the last step it's just perfect too.
PERFECT FOR TODDLERS AND NEWBORN BABIES !!
I don't like rounded corners. But thanks for the comment.
It's strong enough to guarantee the weight of a person. It's an assumption, but it works just fine. We use it everyday and everything is just fine. Thanks for your question.
It's not really. They just work fine. Thanks for your comment
Looks like it belongs on a ship or in a factory.
Nice
Reminds me of Sims! xD
goshops, I know that it seems like you say. But it's not. On your way up, the final step it's just right, because any other higher step would make you touch the ceiling with your head.

What are the bolts actually going into? the studs in the wall? I love this concept and am trying to figure out how to do this.
The room upstairs is an sculpture studio for my girlfriend. This room upstairs is 18 m2 or 194 ft2. Thanks.
that turtle is struggling for air! nice stairs
They are 19 years old now, so I think that they are just fine.
19 YRS OLD THAT IS SO AWESOME!!
Thanks, and they are huge too. They are a female and a male.
Maybe put some things for them to stand on, rocks or something....
Yes, but like many other things in a house. There are lots of dangerous things in any house. It's just a question of being careful. But thanks for your comment.
Exactly the same as falling from any kind of stairs.
@SlaveZero1234
You are right, but with this is the maximum speed that I can get with imovie.
Thank's.
V nice Shelves that Look Like stairs, why not walk up and down a couple times so we can see these well made Plant shelves also would work as Stairs?
You need LED lights underneath on a sensor to give the full effect
+Smiler Liverpool I would love to do that.
THE SIMS?
Rounded corners might make sense.
That must have been a chore remodeling that attic space or is there another entrance?
RJ Hoover We did it before putting the studio (attic) floor.
WOW, it would hurt to run or trip into one of them
It's not dangerous at all. You just have to hold to the bar with one of your hands.
sharp metal corners on the stairs !!!
peter freeston Yes they are sharp, and we love them.
nice work. BTW, nice background music, may i know the CD/Album name ?
what does it supports the stairs? is it the tubeI4? that would brake from the first 10 kilo guy stepping on it...
That looks nice. What is the frame rate?
Hey sir, just want to ask one thing, hope you could help me on this as I'm planning to do the same thing in my attic stairs. Does the metal steps have support or something on the other side of the wall? Thanks a lot!
No, the metal steps are hold with metal screws and also some chemical product (like a really strong "glue").
Why would you want to have to sit down to climb down your stairs, or make a jump to finish getting up?
22 minutes is barely a sped up video! Looks sharp though.
what is the point of the stairs? missing steps to a half hatch opening, is that suppose to be a storage room? a sailors latter/stairs would have been better.
I like them but with little kids around they look sharp ya kow but Hey Nice vid
Tantos recursos económicos? Pero si tu no sabes el dinero que ha costado. Un pitufo? Pero si tu no sabes la altura de la habitación superior. Por cierto, tiene una altura normal. La puerta es pequeña, pero la habitación es normal. Lo puedes ver en otro video. Una pérdida de tiempo? Mi tiempo lo empleo como quiero.
Hahaha. In another video you will be able to watch the upper room. It has a normal height. The celing of the upper room is not the same as the one that you see in the lower room where the stairs are located.
Hi, can you tell me where you bought the floating stairs/treads? Also, what are you anchoring the bolts into? What was that board at the beginning? Can you tell me the width/length of your stairs? Thank you!
Really cool but I wouldn't wana trip & impail my head on one of those.
I like the narrow stairs but wonder if I can carry things like small items of furniture up these stairs?
Seashore Girl, yes you could. There is also a big window that can be used to enter things.
Hi. where did you get those brackets to bolt the supports to the wall?
Is that a sub-woofer attached to the wall?
No, it's the main speaker for the home theater system. On top of it, in the same wall the screen comes down. Thanks for asking.
I am curious if the wall was structurally reinforced to support such steps, or should it not matter? Inputs, anyone?
Please read my older answers. This house is more that 100 years old, made with solid baked bricks, no need to reinforce anything. The steps are hold to the wall with chemical products and metal screws. I have another video where I explain more things about it and I show the room upstairs, that has a normal height, by the way.
elninotsonat how thick are the walls?
@@futbolera8100 the walls are 30 cm. thick of solid baked bricks from more than 100 years ago.
whats the little room spos to be for
Que Lokaza esa escalera pero cuanto pesó aguantara
so how many are actually fastened to a stud.
video gets hilarious at 12 minutes in
How do they not rip out of the wall?
Hi Elninotsonat. Nice install. I’ve been fascinated with floating stairs. I love how yours turned out.
I’m trying to find some plans to build something similar for my sons hanging loft bed. I’m in the US so my home is structured with wood framing. His room is also on the second floor. I can’t find any DIY plans for this sort of project. Would you happen to know if any?
Also what is your wall made of?
Amer Awad, thanks for your comment. My walls are solid bricks from more than 100 years. They are attached to the wall with big screws and some type of strong glue as well. The metal steps are hand made in iron just for our home. Good luck.
I don't have any plans, I had this idea in my mind and then explained to this workers and they did it. Please read my older answers. This house is more that 100 years old, made with solid baked bricks, no need to reinforce anything in my case. The steps are hold to the wall with chemical products and metal screws. I have another video where I explain more things about it and I show the room upstairs, that has a normal height, by the way.
Did they use hollow wall anchors? That is sheetrock isn't it?.
There is another video much faster and shorter like you say.
How did you determine they aren't dangerous? There is no rail? Not to mention just tripping and hitting your shin on those things looks painful...and what about coming down? Looks like a serious challange ...like a bugs bunny cartoon when they move the steps
What is this? Stairs for ant?
That wouldn't pass "code" in my town, they would do an inspection and laugh as they told me to take it down ! Ever heard of measure twice, and cut (or drill) once?
That's why we live in Barcelona and not in your town.
What are the materials used for this stairs? I'll appreciate if you'll reply
I didn't bought them anywhere, I draw them and make them build for me. They are made of iron and screwed to the wall with long screws and with some strong "glue" (it's not glue but is similar). If you read other comments you can see my explanations. Thanks for your question.
12:54........... Injury :(
I 9:48 ....unhygienic behaviour hehe :)
Turtle quite relaxed for all this time. ;)
Hahahahaha
I would not want to trip and bang my knee on those stairs...
something way wrong with first two steps.... couldn't anchor properly. They spent 3/4s time on that vs the rest. Looked like concrete or brick? Something missing down low. They kept shoving stuff in for backing and still weren't sure. Music felt felt like Legend of zelda "ocoranis of time"
Are you attaching to a steel beam inside the wall how do you get the steps to hold safety and without balancing ?
steel beam inside the wall with a really strong silicon or glue kind of material.
A bit steep and the top you have to jump to get into the space and that corridor it leads to is that for an umpa lumpa? What a weird place for stairs and where it leads to
Hahaha. In another of my videos you can watch the upper room. It has a normal height. The celing of the upper room is not the same as the one that you see in the lower room where the stairs are located. You don't have to jump to get inside the upper room, just the oposite. Watch my other video.
Weight limit?
It would b nice if i knew how u did it step by step. With instructions. Not jus guessing
Please read my older answers. This house is more that 100 years old, made with solid baked bricks, no need to reinforce anything. The steps are hold to the wall with chemical products and metal screws. I have another video where I explain more things about it and I show the room upstairs, that has a normal height, by the way.
jump to 21:56 to see the RESULT !
Turtles attacking each other in the background ???? actually fighting - someone should separate them LOL
They mate once or twice a year. They are male and female. They are 19 years old, now (2016).
There is another video much faster and shorter.
when did the keystone cops get a handyman business?
Hahahahaha.
My girlfriend sculpture studio. You can watch it in another video.
The foolishness of youth, thinking you will be young forever. On the stairs, a sudden unexpected lose of balance, and only a thin rail on the wall to grab for support, whoops, how did I get trapped here on the floor with a broken leg, clavicle, spine, hip, neck . . . . Oh, but it looked so stylish, it was the latest rage!
Went to college in winter in snowmobile boots and full winter gear! Only one with warm feet and body in the whole place!
If I'm too old to climb the stairs, I will not go upstairs. My house is big enough. This is just an extra studio. Or if I really want to go there, I can change the stairs and build some electric chair to go up and down, or maybe I will probably be in another house with a big garden, surrounded by animals.
I have uploaded a new video (Floating stairs construction explanation. HD) in response to this video, to answer some of your construction questions. I hope it's useful for you all. Thanks
@SparkyRedfern
I will tell you the size of the stairs later on. Right now for me it's not possible. I have to mesure them for you. But I will. Thank's for your questions !
12:54 lmao
Are you attaching to wood in the wall or is it concrete ?
its dry wall
yeah but you have to anchor to something, how do you hold the treads ?
idk maybe there is a metal pipe inside
Steel bar or 4x2 stud .....looks good
Yea
Ok so what the hell did you attach the stairs to? Drywall?? No. 0 help.
Just to the wall wich is made by solid baked bricks. The house is more than 100 years old.
I guess community living can even be hard on little green turtles.
They are 19 years old now, and they are just fine. Thanks (2016)
Where are the steps from
what am I watch? new age relaxing video but wait I see people working I clearly shouldn't be falling into sleep...now I am hearing a water fall now I need to go to the bathroom. I'm out of here.....love the youtube tangents it takes me on
Hehehehe
I LIKE TURTLES 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
imagin if you fell that would suck
How thick is that plate? How did you fix it to the wall?
Please, look for my answer in the older comments.
A simple ladder is so much easier.
+tmmss right, but not so nice.
relax!it's their house they can build whatever shit they like in it.
where did you get the stairs?
Someone made them for us.
turtles in da fishtank
Yes, they are 19 years old, right now (2016)
sharp corners look nasty...ouuchh !!
looks dangerous
