Staged payments for custom staircase projects

Bespoke and higher-value staircases often move through several well-defined phases. To keep everything transparent and manageable, we typically arrange staged payments via invoice:

1. Deposit — Confirms your order and locks in planning.
2. Before production — Ensures materials and manufacturing can commence on schedule.
3. On completion or prior to delivery — Final balance settles the project as it ships or is readied for installation.

While standard external financing or long-term consumer credit is not routinely offered, tailored arrangements can be discussed based on your project’s scope and complexity.
