AB Grade Red Oak Stair Treads and Risers

Separate Components for Treads and Risers

These red oak stair treads and risers serve two distinct purposes: treads form the horizontal stepping surfaces, while risers form the vertical faces between steps. Each component should be identified separately in the project schedule, with its dimensions, profile, and quantity clearly recorded.

The listed reference sizes provide a starting point for specification review. Final dimensions and their correspondence to each intended use require written confirmation against the project drawings before drawing approval.

AB Grade Red Oak, Engineered Construction

The stair components feature a 2mm red oak face and a 20mm total thickness in a multilayer engineered construction. The substrate is specified as poplar/eucalyptus plywood, with the exact configuration confirmed for the order.

AB Grade should be reviewed through the applicable written criteria and approved samples. It does not establish a guarantee of completely knot-free material or identical grain across components.

The specified surface is brushed, with a UV-lacquered finish. Natural Oak and stained color directions are listed, and custom colors can be discussed. Review the physical sample to confirm the selected appearance.

Project-Specific Shapes and Details

Size, shaped-component, and color customization are available. Submit drawings showing the required tread and riser arrangement, including any curved or other shaped pieces.

Tread front edges, nosing profiles, grooves, installation interfaces, and component quantities must be confirmed for the specific project. Reference dimensions alone do not define these details or establish the load capacity, slip performance, or certification of a complete stair system.

VIF coordinates product information, drawings, and samples with designers, contractors, and project purchasing teams.

Tread and Riser Reference Specifications

Reference-size note: Confirm the final dimensions and size-to-use correspondence in writing against the project drawings before drawing approval. A shaped front edge or nosing profile requires its own drawing confirmation; the 20mm board thickness does not define the complete front-edge geometry.

Customization and Drawing Confirmation

1. Submit the Project Requirements

Provide the project type, intended stair arrangement, target color, purchasing plan, and quantities for treads and risers separately. Include available drawings and identify any shaped components.

2. Review Dimensions and Profiles

Confirm component dimensions, tread front edges, nosing, curves or other shapes, grooves, and installation interfaces. Identify each component with a drawing reference so similar pieces are not confused.

3. Review the Color Sample

Provide a target color sample or reference. Where matching flooring is included, review the flooring and stair samples together. Coordination concerns species, color, and overall appearance; natural grain and tonal variation remain part of the material.

4. Approve the Specification in Writing

Confirm the drawings, component schedule, quantities, substrate configuration, color sample, and purchasing conditions before finalizing the order. Any subsequent change should be reviewed against the approved documents.

Samples and Purchasing Information

Matching Red Oak Flooring

The stair components can be coordinated with AB Grade 3-Meter Red Oak Engineered Wood Flooring for the same project.

The flooring measures 3000 × 190 × 20mm, with a 6mm red oak face and multilayer engineered construction. Its specified surface treatments are brushed and smoked, with UV lacquer.

The stair components have a 2mm oak face, compared with the flooring’s 6mm face. The flooring’s smoked treatment must not automatically be transferred to the stair specification.

Review the two products through their own specifications and approved samples. Coordination does not mean identical construction, face thickness, or an absence of natural color variation.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between a stair tread and a stair riser?

A tread is the horizontal stepping surface. A riser is the vertical face between steps. Record their dimensions, profiles, and quantities separately in the project schedule.

2. What do the reference sizes and 20/2mm specification mean?

The listed references are 1220 × 330mm for tread review and 1220 × 178mm for riser review, with a 20mm total board thickness and a 2mm oak face. Final dimensions and the correspondence between sizes and uses must be confirmed in writing before drawing approval.

3. Does AB Grade mean there are no knots?

A completely knot-free appearance is not guaranteed. Review the written grade criteria and approved samples to confirm the natural features acceptable for the project.

4. Can dimensions, shapes, and colors be customized?

Yes. Submit the required dimensions, drawings, and color references for review. Front-edge profiles, nosing, shaped pieces, grooves, and installation interfaces require project-specific confirmation.

5. Can the stairs match the three-meter red oak flooring?

The products can be coordinated in species, color, and overall appearance through sample review. They have different oak face thicknesses, and the flooring’s smoked treatment does not automatically apply to the stairs. Natural variation should be included in the selection discussion.

6. What are the MOQ, sample time, and production period?

Stair MOQ is negotiated separately, and smaller-quantity orders can be discussed. Sample production takes 10–15 days. Production takes 50 days after receipt of the deposit, subject to order confirmation. Shipping and transportation are separate from these periods.
