Custom tread widths and depths

From time to time, we're asked a variation of the following question:

Hi Scott-

 

On box treads, we do not cut the treads and sell them in standard 11-1/2" widths x lengths in increments of 6". So, if there's a wall on both sides of your staircase, you'd need a 60" tread. See this link:

If you have an exposed edge (left or right return - or two exposed edges would be a double return), we can rip the tread to the 10-1/2" width prior to attaching the returns since cutting afterwards would be very difficult.  See these links:

 

Left returns: http://www.stair-treads.com/traditional-treads-and-risers/traditional-1in-stair-treads.html?length=22&profile=32&wood_species=68

Right Returns: http://www.stair-treads.com/traditional-treads-and-risers/traditional-1in-stair-treads.html?length=22&profile=33&wood_species=68

 

Here's a helpful link for the difference between the left and right returns:

If you'd like to attach a couple of photos, we can put together a quote for you and help in more detail with your particular project.
