Temporary Stairs for a House
-

Building a house can be a complex process that sometimes requires compromises and, at other times, temporary solutions. When, for various reasons, the final interior staircase has not yet been installed but communication between the ground floor and the upper floor is necessary, there are usually two options: using a ladder or — a much better and significantly safer solution — temporary stairs. How can you make them, and why are wooden temporary stairs the best idea?
When Do You Need Temporary Stairs?
There can be many reasons why investors decide not to install permanent interior stairs right away. In which situations are temporary interior stairs useful? Here are the most common examples:
- when, due to high construction costs, the budget does not yet allow for permanent stairs;
- when you are not yet sure what kind of interior stairs you want and prefer not to decide at this stage;
- when stairs are needed during construction, but you want to avoid installing the final ones to prevent damage;
- when you plan to install expensive, complex stairs that require a long production time.

How to Build Temporary Stairs?
When it comes to temporary stairs for a house, there are several options, but most investors choose a wooden structure. Why? Easy availability of the material, durability, and relatively low cost make wooden stairs consistently popular. What does the construction of wooden temporary stairs look like from scratch?
- Design stage: determining the number of steps and their height based on the floor-to-floor height and regulations regarding optimal stair dimensions;
- In the case of stringer stairs ‒ installing the side beams to which the steps will be attached;
- Installing steps made of structural wood with appropriate thickness;
- Securing the structure to the ceiling and floor;
- Optional finishing — although for temporary stairs, investors often skip this stage.
We discuss detailed installation rules — including self-supporting stairs — in a separate article on our blog.
The most important criteria when choosing temporary stairs should be stability and safety, which is why we recommend wooden temporary interior stairs from SOWOSZ.
