Flagship / Floating Staircases

The staircase that
refuses to touch the floor.

Our signature discipline. A steel spine engineered to span, timber treads set to hover, and a frameless glass line that holds the edge. Built in three structural configurations — each fabricated, erected and signed off by one accountable team in Harare and Cape Town.

Trigo metal modern cantilevered floating staircase fabrication and installationConfigurations · Scale Reference
Three ways to float
A

Mono Stringer

A single central steel spine. The lightest visual line — the tread appears to hover from one disciplined beam.

B

Double Stringer

Twin parallel spines. A heavier structural register, ideal for wider flights and longer clear spans.

C

Concealed Support

Treads cantilever straight from the wall. No visible steel at all — pure flotation, the hardest detail to engineer.

The Build · Raw to Finished
Trigo metal modern cantilevered floating staircase fabrication and installation01

Raw Spine

Heavy-gauge I-beam stringer set, welded and levelled. Tread brackets burned in to the millimetre.

Trigo metal modern cantilevered floating staircase fabrication and installation02

Bracket Set

Tread plates aligned, masked and prepped. Every bracket surveyed plumb before the timber lands.

Finished Flight

Solid oak treads, frameless glass balustrade, integrated LED. The structure disappears; the line remains.
