Spiral stairs originated in medieval castles and were never meant to be easy to use. They are a defensive, architectural element. Only one person at a time on the stair, is intentional "by design." The stairs usually make a spiraling, clockwise turn when ascending, allowing a defender to take full, downward strokes (with his right hand) while the one ascending, must raise his sword above his head to strike or parry (and while up against the central column of the stair.) Today, spiral stairs in homes, are predominately a space-saving device and should never be the sole means of upper-floor access. Moving furniture up and down spiral stairs, is almost never possible, nor recommended. Spiral stairs, are inherently dangerous and steep, especially near the central column, which most often, is devoid of a handrail. They are interesting to look at and can add an artistic element to any structure, but not without risk.

I’m 5’3 & carried a 74in countertop up a spiral staircase..Just stand it up tall & walk it up. You also don’t have to put it in a corner either.

I said the same thing to my boyfriend but we was talking about a box spring..stand it up the long way & Walla

[@dickiegreenleaf750]

How do you get furniture up there. I don’t get it. It’s nice if it’s a second staircase but not your main

[@annienajam1564]

can you Plz reply : Which stairs is suitable 120 yard small house.(Space saving)

[@buildingstudies]

It is dependent on the size and shape of your house. However, based on the area of your home, I think a "half-turned staircase" will be a good option.

Is it possible to carry a double coat bed through this spiral stairs to first floor?

[@buildingstudies]

You can carry some of its parts(if it is detachable).

I almost knocked myself out on a spiral staircase in a home that I was renting

[@nuttsgt8394]

Nobody is going to use a circular staircase as a main staircase in a typical home.

[@dickiegreenleaf750]

That’s what I was wondering. There’s no way you can. Not impossible but rare.

In the sixties it was stylisch to have this "modern design" item. My uncle, an architect, had one. Still has. I know other people who have it. Never understood why. To me it's ugly, dangerous and not practical. He took his (big) furniture upstairs from outside (very big windows) with his brothers :-) I have 1 turn in my staircaise and I must pay a lot of attention there .

[@Renewthoughtlife]

I just liked at a townhome that has one way to upstairs...a spiral staircase. That's what led me here. I want to see if it's worth it. 😂 I'm wondering how people get things up there.

Couldn't make out a single word of that pigeon-English voiceover... Not one word... In my next video, I will explain why people should not make videos if they can't communicate effectively. You will learn most of the risks and disadvantages of coming off sounding like Latka Gravas...

[@buildingstudies]

This video is made for people working in building construction industry. Therefore I think you may have found it hard to understand. If you feel this is not a reason then, please feel free to reply. I really want to learn what's wrong with the video.

[@MrPGC137]

@@buildingstudies No, I just find pigeon English hard to understand. In this case, it's nearly impossible. I would suggest taking some (okay, a lot of) remedial courses in the clear and correct pronunciation and enunciation of basic English, so that you can be clearly understood, because the level demonstrated here in this video is utterly incomprehensible. Whether it was intended for people in the building-construction industry or not is utterly irrelevant to the issue.

@@MrPGC137 I doubt you are a spoken english teacher🙂. While I agree that my english is not good. And I always love to improve it. At the same time, I like to inform you that here, at my place it is how we speak English. FYI there are different dialects. It doesn't matter if you care less about this, because there's already a great population consuming my videos. Over 20,000 students across the globe and more 100 hours/month on different platforms. So, I will surely improve my english or hire someone else to do voiceovers but, as of now it's good for me to continue my work as it is yet helpful to some (if not many). My words are genuine completely free from anxiety and I really respect your feedback. I am taking it into consideration and will surely act to improve the outreach and usefulness of my content. Hope you will understand,

@@MrPGC137 I found his English perfectly fine to understand.. What are you on about?

[@MrPGC137]

@@incognitoorange4719 Then your "English" must be shit as well, or even worse than his. (And if you could read plain English-which you obviously can't-then you'd _know_ what I'm "on" about. Incidentally, unlike you I don't do drugs, so technically I'm not "on" anything. Just so you know...)
