Cf/Sfb reference by RIBA Sfb Agency (24.4) Xh2 Setting new standards in innovative staircase design Spiral, helical and straight flight stairs
Working with architects, contractors, designers, developers, builders and homeowners With a history in staircase design that stretches back to the early 1970s, supported today by our state-of-the-art 3D CAD facilities and modern manufacturing plant, we combine an understanding of client needs with in-depth technical expertise and offer a complete turnkey solutions package. There's more to Crescent than you may think. Our business was built on an innovative approach to the design and manufacture of spiral stairs, making use of a modular system to offer architects and specifiers an unrivalled combination of economy, speed and design flexibility. This was like nothing the market had seen before and helped to establish Crescent as the name in spiral stair solutions. Since then, we have built on this initial success, developing our portfolio and broadening our skill base to become one of the leading designers, manufacturers and installers of spiral, helical and straight flight stairs. So, while the supply of standard' steel spirals remains a core part of our business, you are just as likely to find us working alongside architects and interior designers, developers and builders, and even DIY homeowners to deliver creative, contemporary and aesthetically-delightful stair solutions. Our projects range from external spiral fire escapes for new build office parks, through internal dog-leg staircases for modular buildings to helical staircases in residential apartment complexes. So whatever your project, talk to Crescent, because alongside design, manufacture and installation, our experience also delivers complete peace of mind. 1. Spiral fire escape at office park 2.

Stairs for every application: modular, commercial, corporate, residential, industrial and public Wherever there's a need to provide access to or from a different level of a building, interior or exterior, we can help. Whether it's a stock solution based on our portfolio of modular design components or a bespoke construction designed to meet a specific brief, we have the experience and engineering expertise to deliver just whatever you need. From functional, galvanised fire escapes on industrial units to sweeping, woodfinished stairways providing a focal point to corporate reception areas, Crescent stairs can be found in every type of building. They provide stylish, space-saving solutions in open plan offices; they're used to 'lift' the look of otherwise utilitarian buildings; they add value to New Yorkstyle loft apartment developments; and they help ensure timely, cost-effective completion of modular construction work. In short, whatever the application, we can work with you to provide the answer you're looking for. Unlimited configuration possibilities The design opportunities are endless. As well as spiral, helical and straight flight stairs, we can also incorporate landing areas, wheelchair refuges, canopies, security cages and galleries to meet any design requirement from a simple single storey rise through to complex constructions serving multiple floors. The fact that our stairs are modular in design also makes them ideal for use in pre-fabricated buildings systems. Having worked closely with many of the leading names in this field, we have valuable experience in areas including residential, commercial, military and custodial. Technical support at no extra charge Our field-based technical advisors can provide as much advice as you need in the critical design phase of a project, helping to ensure that you get best value for money and an end product that answers your brief in full. 1.

A focus on design from start to finish - via our own powerful CAD system The flexibility we offer in stair configuration is matched only by the breadth of finishes we offer, either from our extensive range of standard components or by developing custom solutions. Your proposed stair system can be visualised - and then adapted until you're 100% happy - using our own bespoke software. Our powerful CAD software - unique to Crescent - is among the most advanced of its kind, giving us the ability not only to turn your concept into a detailed working drawing but also to generate real view visualisations and photo rendered animations of the stair in situ. And this means you can assess a range of different design aspects before committing to final specifications. Colour will be an important factor and all components can be supplied powder coated in virtually any BS or RAL colour or simply primed or galvanised. We can offer exceptional flexibility in balustrade design too, with a choice of verticals, running rails, plain or perforated sheet panels and glass infills. Treads can be supplied in steel (ribbed, rubber-covered or recessed to accept a screed or timber infill), in standard or exotic timbers (plain or recessed for a carpet infill) or even in glass, while handrails can be galvanised, powder coated, PVC covered, hardwood, polished brass or stainless steel. In other words, the design permutations are virtually endless, giving you the flexibility and freedom to create a bespoke solution at an off-the-shelf price, all built to be compliant with BS EN 5395 and building regulations as applicable. And it is this versatility - the fact that our staircases can be used to make powerful architectural statements as well as to solve practical challenges as economically as possible - that makes Crescent the obvious choice whether you're an architect, a contractor, a developer or an end user. 1.
