Rick decided to close his open staircase with risers. He was able to get started quickly with custom-cut sheet material ordered from TOSIZE.de. Now, his staircase has been transformed from open to closed. Read here how he went about it!
Description by Rick
I closed the existing open staircase using the ordered materials by installing risers. The screws were easily ordered along with them.
How I made this project
- Step 1: Measuring the required boards. TOSIZE.de has a handy Excel and/or order form online, where you can add the dimensions per board, as well as a code. For example, stair tread 1, 2, etc. I kept a slightly longer length at the turns.
- Step 2: Ordering the boards and screws.
- Step 3: Additionally, I ordered the Wolfcraft Undercover Jig set TX4642100 to apply the screws in an almost invisible way and attach the risers.
- Step 4: Checking measurements, applying hidden connection with Wolfcraft, and planing the end grain for neat connections.
- Step 5: Attaching the risers
- Step 6: Finishing
Dimensions of my DIY project
The height of the risers is approximately 20.0 cm. The width varied due to the turn in the staircase.
