Hey guys
I need to get some stairs fabricated or second hand for the back of our house, they need to be 4.27m long that’s from deck to ground.
where can I go to get them done or is there a place where I can find second hand ones like a demolition sales yard or auction place in NSW any help appreciated.

First of all they are BUGGERS to make if you are not THAT experienced

There are a couple of demolition / 2nd hand places i know of.

One on Parra Rd near Homebush - and one near Leichhardt

What are you after - wood or steel??

Gunna be bloody heavy whatever.

You any good with tools??

OK - i will try and get the details of these places.

The one i am thinking of is on Parra Rd near Liverpool Rd.
Has a huge steel cage thing in the yard.

Here are some sites to give you an idea

Stairs are easy
How High do they go
Height x 1.8 = length

Keeping it real !

I work at Lang's Building supplies.

We sell what we call step stringers... they are hot dip galvanised metal frames that u buy as a pair... and they have mounts at each end for either bolting onto something or sealing in cement. Surely a building supplies place down ur way would have em.

Bolt ur woodern slats on the step stringers and away you go. Note though, these things don't come with guard rails.
