Frequently Asked Questions

How wide are mezzanine stairs?

The width of mezzanine stairs depends on whether they are used in industrial or commercial settings. Industrial mezzanine stairs, which are accessible only to specific workers as part of their work duties, are constructed in widths from 24” to 60”. Commercial mezzanine stairs, accessible to the general public or part of the structure of a building, are built in widths of 36” to 60”.

What is the purpose of a mezzanine?

The purpose of a mezzanine is to increase the usable floor space of a building without increasing the size of the building itself. A mezzanine serves as an intermediate floor between levels of the building and can be used for storage, equipment or work areas.

Do mezzanine stairs need to be enclosed?

Mezzanine stairs do not need to be enclosed. However, they must comply with other applicable OSHA or IBC standards.

What is a mezzanine story?

A mezzanine story is an intermediate level of a building that is located between the main floors. Usually, a mezzanine story is not counted in the total number of the floors of the building.

Testimonials

"We extensively use alternating tread stairs from Lapeyre Stair instead of ladders in our plant because they are safer and easier to use. Working with Lapeyre Stair is easy and convenient. We just give them the height and the angle we need and they return with a drawings and quote. We ok the layout, provide a PO number, and the order arrives in two to three weeks. Lapeyre Stair is a pleasure to work with."

"We have used alternating tread stairs from Lapeyre Stair for years and are finding new places to install them all the time. They are safer and easier to climb than a ladder and, when you run out of room for a long set of stairs, they are a great alternative. Customer Service has always been great; they are very patient and helpful; and my orders are correct when they arrive and include all the parts. Alternating tread stairs are easy to install and assemble. I just measure the height of the platform and decide what degree I want. Customer Service quickly responds with a print for approval, we issue a PO, and the order is produced."

"We decided to switch to the alternating tread stair from caged ladders to access our equipment because it provides a safer, easier, and more efficient means of access to the equipment for our clients. The team at Lapeyre Stair has been great to work with. They are very responsive and their quick turnarounds on drawings and fabrication schedules have met the demands of our fast-paced projects."

"Alternating tread stairs from Lapeyre Stair provide access to our machines that is safer and more comfortable than ladders while also saving space over a traditional stair. Lapeyre Stair is our preferred vendor for all of our stair needs. They custom build their products to our exact specifications; their web site makes getting CAD files and ordering easy; their shipping is timely and reliable; and assembly of the stairs is simple."
