Your choice of wood influences the appearance, wear, finishing and maintenance of your staircase. At Esen Trappen, we work with carefully selected, certified wood. We help you choose a material to suit your home, everyday use and budget.
Oak
Oak is a hardwood with a distinctive grain and good resistance to wear. It gives a staircase a warm, natural appearance and suits everyday use. A clear varnish or suitable oil can keep the grain visible. The chosen finish and regular maintenance help protect the surface.
Spruce
Spruce is a softwood and can offer a more economical option. It is often chosen for staircases that will be painted or covered. Its softer structure can show dents and signs of use sooner than harder wood. With a suitable finish, spruce provides a good base for a white or black painted staircase.
Mahogany
Mahogany typically has a warm, reddish-brown colour and a fine grain, giving a staircase a classic appearance. Like all wood, it responds to changes in temperature and humidity. Properties depend on the particular species and quality; sound construction, a suitable finish and a stable indoor environment remain important.
Compare wood, finish and price
Consider the look you want, how you use the staircase and how you plan to maintain it. The configurator lets you compare available options and see an initial price indication. We confirm the final wood specification and construction with you.
