Viewrail FLIGHT Cantilever Floating Stairs, Straight

Minimalism to the Max

For years, our stairs have set the standard for modern, minimalist design.

Our new FLIGHT Cantilever system takes minimalism to the max. With a hidden, side-mounting stringer and absolutely no visible hardware or supports, our cantilever stairs make it seem as if your treads are jutting out from the wall. Paired with a glass railing, this stair system can make a major impact on your space with almost no footprint.

How does it work?

Our steel Cantilever brackets bolt into LVL studs and interlock with each other to provide a wobble-free experience at every step. Then you simply add plywood reinforcement on each side of the wall. We’ll help you engineer everything to bring the magic of Cantilever to your project.
