KARINA
THE SPACE SAVING STAIRCASE
The space-saving design of the KARINA model
makes it the ideal staircase to use in replacement
of the traditional pull-down attic stairs when con-
verting an attic into a loft, office, or bedroom.
It is available in 3 colors-black, white, and grey-
powder coat finish painted-ready to install.
The standard KARINA staircase kit is adjustable
in height from a range of 6 ft. 10 1/4“ to 9 ft. 3“
and with additional components, can be ex-
tended to a maximum height of 10 ft. 9 1/2“.
The KARINA comes with a handrail for one side.
A second-side handrail is available as an optional
accessory if needed.
The KARINA stair treads are manufactured from
European beech wood, finished with a light natu-
ral stain and clear coat protective sealer. An al-
ternating tread design (right-step/left-step) allows
for installation in very limited spaces.
This kit can be installed in 4 different configura-
tions. The straight installation can be done in as
small a finished opening size as 25“ wide x 56“
long.
To complete your project a BALCONY RAIL kit is
available. The BALCONY RAIL kit comes com-
plete with 10 balusters, handrail, and all the nec-
essary hardware to complete a 3 ft. 11“ installa-
tion, available in the same colors as the KARINA
staircase kit.
SAFETY BARS are available in a set of 10 to
close off the back of the treads.
Each KARINA staircase kit is shipped complete
with detailed assembly instructions and a DVD to
assist in your installation. You can also view an
installation video on our website at
