Helpful Hints
RISERS
Construct the risers using the Step Doctor: Follow the 3 easy steps to create the first two risers: STEP 1: Position the Step Doctor on its edge beginning on the bottom step. STEP 2: Extend the wings out flush with the skirt board on each side of the step. Tighten the wing nuts, ensuring there is no space between the Step Doctor and skirt board. STEP 3: Place the Step Doctor on the new riser; mark and cut. When marking the new riser, align the bottom edge of the Step Doctor with the bottom edge of the new riser (bottom to bottom for risers). A compound miter saw is recommended to ensure a clean cut.Install the risers:
When attaching the new risers, allow approximately 1/16 inch above the front edge of the stringer. Use a quality construction adhesive on each riser and tread along with nails or screws.TREADS
Construct the treads using the Step Doctor: STEP 1: Position the Step Doctor flat on the stringer or temporary tread against the new riser. STEP 2: Extend the wings out flush with the skirt board on each side of the step. Tighten the wing nuts, ensuring there is no space between the Step Doctor and skirt board. STEP 3: Place the Step Doctor on the new tread; mark and cut. When marking the new tread, align the top edge of the Step Doctor with the back edge of the new tread (top to back for treads). A compound miter saw is recommended to ensure a clean cut.Install the treads:
Attach each tread using a quality construction adhesive and nails or screws as you did with the risers. Continue positioning, marking and cutting each riser and tread until complete.Additional Information
