Stair Systems
Pacific Stair offers a comprehensive range of pre-engineered steel stair systems designed for commercial and industrial applications. Our solutions include concrete-filled, checker plate, smooth plate, and grating options that meet strict safety and durability standards. Each system is engineered to client specifications with features like Quiet Tread noise reduction technology and Stack-A-Shaft modular installation capabilities.
Rail Systems
We provide diverse rail systems tailored to industrial and architectural requirements, including pipe, tube, picket, and cable designs. Our rail solutions combine safety compliance with aesthetic considerations, offering options for both interior and exterior applications while maintaining non-climbing performance and slip-resistant properties.
Safe-T-Nose
Our photoluminescent egress systems enhance emergency visibility with stair nosing and directional markings that comply with IBC and IFC standards. These non-electrical, glow-in-the-dark solutions provide 25-year warranted safety features that improve slip resistance and emergency evacuation efficiency through contrasting color schemes and durable polymer construction.
Quiet Tread
This patented acoustic stair system reduces foot traffic noise in steel stairs by up to 70% through specialized tread design. Independent testing at Oregon State University confirms its performance meets ASTM E84-09c standards while maintaining structural integrity and code compliance for commercial buildings.
Stack-A-Shaft
Our stacking stair system solves construction challenges through pre-assembled units that install in under an hour. Designed for light gage, wood-framed, and structural steel buildings, this OSHA-compliant solution eliminates temporary stairs while providing fixed reference points for precise floor elevation control during construction phases.
