Sway Bracing

For Alternating Tread Crossover Stairs

Crossovers stair systems with alternating tread stairs require bracing to prevent swaying. The bracing kit for these systems includes stainless steel brackets and hardware for the upper and lower connections plus custom tubing in the same material and finish as your crossover system.

We need the following information to calculate bracing specifications. Contact us for assistance with determining the optimal spread and brace angles for your system.

  • Dimensions of obstacles surrounding the system
  • Optimal spread angle (0° to 20° for 56° stairs; 0° to 10° for 68° stairs)
  • Optimal brace angle (20° to 30° from the vertical plane)

The cost of the bracing kit is included in the list price for crossovers with alternating tread stairs. Subtract $328.22 from the list price if you will provide your own bracing for the system.
