It looks like you're going with a more traditional piston type with mechanical space below and above?

No space below.

There’s a track that goes all the way up on the back wall...

And I think there are some mechanical workings at the top?...

Will just have to wait and see...

Great to see all the new photos Kiran, your project is progressing nicely. I noticed your underfloor heating system and was curious as to what you chose? I've just fitted a Nu-Heat wet system throughout and it looks like you chose the electric route. I am Interested to know the system you finally decided upon and what swayed you between the two system types? Simon.

Downstairs is water underfloor heating.

Upstairs is electric and the mats are from Elektra 160w/m2. I’m using Heatmiser Neo Stat E thermostats alongside...

I think I have the same system downstairs?...

My electrician has the massive spec sheet with all the pipe runs. Will show you later...

My mum didn’t like where the new stairs were...

She wants it touching the wall...

It literally changed within an hour lol...

Hi Kiran,

I am following your renovation with much interest for over a year now and I am very happy that you share the progress with us.

I do not want to encourage another change of the new stairs, but... ;)

Looking at the photos I wondered whether the space under the beam is sufficient to pass underneath without knocking your head. Have you considered realising the lower part as a circular staircase that, looking from the top, makes a left turn of 180° or maybe 135°, so one would not have to pass under the beam? Admittedly this would move the lower landing from the window side to the hallway side.

That was my idea for using the available footprint for a most comfortable ascent.

There is plenty of space between people’s heads and the beam when initially climbing the new stairs.

I will take a photo and show you 👍🏻💯

So, that's where the new Edge goes then? 😎

That beam is actually coming out after confirming...
