Civik Zinc Spiral Stair FAQs
 
What floor height is available from the standard Civik Zinc Spiral kit?

The standard Civik Zinc kit of 13 risers will fit a floor to floor height of up to 2.86m (9' 4") whilst complying with the UK Building Regulations.  Our regs require a maximum individual tread rise of 22cm; however, the staircase is made in Italy and can be installed with a tread rise of up to 23.5m to comply with regulations in the rest of Europe.  It is important that you are aware of this when looking at details for the Italian staircases in the brochure and on other websites.  We are always happy to advise on the options for your project.

 
 
What if my floor height is lower or higher than the standard kit height?

If you have a lower floor to floor height, you will probably just use less of the treads supplied in the kit, plus you may need some additional components and we would always be happy to advise you on this.  If you floor height is greater, then we can supply additional tread kits and you'll find more details on the accessories page.  There is a maximum floor height available for the Civik Zinc of 3.76m.

 
Can I use the Civik Zinc inside my house?

The Civik Zinc Spiral staircase is made specifically for exterior use.  It has been treated with a process including, pickling, zinc bath and an antioxidant protection primer.  The galvanised finish may have some imperfections which can be remedied by gentle filing and repainting with the zinc paint included in the kit.  However, the treads are drilled for drainage and non-slip treatment and as such they are not suitable for using inside your house.

 
Is it possible to connect the Civik Zinc handrailing to some balustrading on my top landing?

No.  Arkč do not provide matching galvanised balustrading.

 
Do I need to specify whether my Civik Zinc Spiral  needs to turn to the left or right before I order?

No.  The Civik Zinc Spiral kit can be installed in a clockwise or anti-clockwise ascent at the time of installation.
