Introducing Apex Staircases: A New Website, Same Commitment to Excellence

At Apex, we've always been passionate about crafting bespoke, high-quality woodwork. Over the years, our reputation for delivering beautifully designed oak frames through our sister company, Apex Oak Frames, has allowed us to work on some truly outstanding projects. Now, with the creation of Apex Staircases, we’re excited to dedicate a space entirely to our staircase expertise.

While this is a new website, it’s important to know that it is still run by the same skilled team behind Apex Oak Frames. We are still the same business, bringing the same dedication, craftsmanship, and attention to detail to every project we undertake. The difference is that Apex Staircases will now focus solely on delivering bespoke staircases that add elegance, functionality, and value to homes and businesses across the UK.

Why the change? Over the years, we’ve seen increasing demand for our custom-made staircases, and we wanted to create a platform where clients can specifically explore this area of our work. By creating a dedicated website, we aim to make it easier for you to find inspiration, learn about our services, and connect with us to bring your vision to life.

We continue to offer the same level of personal service that you’ve come to know. Whether you’re planning a new build, renovation, or a unique architectural project, our team is here to ensure your staircase is nothing short of spectacular.
