Folding stairs: Modern, whisper-quiet and functional
Krieger-Treppen manufactures individual staircases 100% in Germany and stands for outstanding quality and premium design. One of our most popular types of staircase is the folding staircase, which impresses with its modern look, innovative design and versatility.
What are folding stairs?
A folding staircase is a special type of staircase that impresses with its minimalist and elegant appearance. The treads and risers are joined together in such a way that they look like a continuous strip. This design is reminiscent of folded paper, which gives the staircase its name. The design of the folded stairs is not only an aesthetic highlight, but also functionally well thought-out.
Special features of folded stairs
Modern look
Folding stairs are characterized by their clear, minimalist design. With no visible supporting structure, they appear light and floating. This look blends seamlessly into modern architectural concepts and creates stylish accents in your home or office.
Self-supporting wall mounting
A special feature of the folding staircase is its self-supporting wall mounting. The steps are attached to the wall so that no load-bearing elements are visible in the room. This not only creates an elegant look, but also offers practical benefits such as excellent sound absorption. Noise generated when walking on the stairs is effectively dampened, which contributes to pleasant room acoustics.
Versatile choice of materials
We produce folding stairs in various materials, e.g. wood, metal or concrete. We offer the right solution for every taste and furnishing style.
- Folding stairs made of wood: for a warm and natural look. Folding stairs made of wood radiate cosiness and can be realized in various types of wood such as oak, beech or walnut.
- Folding stairs made of metal: for a modern and industrial flair. Folding stairs made of steel or metal are robust and easy to clean. They are ideal for modern living and working spaces.
- Folding stairs made of concrete: For a purist and minimalist aesthetic. Concrete steps give the folding staircase exceptional stability and an unmistakable look.

Concrete stairs: modern elegance meets durability
Krieger-Treppen is your expert for stylish and robust staircase solutions with and made of concrete. Based on the picturesque Moselle, we design and produce modern staircases and banisters that are aesthetically pleasing and functional.
Our concrete staircases, which we also offer in combination with steel and wood, are particularly popular. We would like to explain the advantages and unique style of concrete stairs below.
What are concrete stairs?
Concrete stairs are stairs whose main component is concrete. Concrete, a mixture of cement, water and aggregates such as sand and gravel, is known for its excellent strength and durability. These properties make concrete stairs an excellent choice for both residential and commercial buildings.
The advantages of concrete stairs
Durability and robustness: Concrete stairs are extremely resistant to wear and tear and can withstand heavy use. This makes them ideal for high-traffic areas such as entrances, stairwells and public buildings.
Easy-care and low-maintenance: Concrete stairs require minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning is enough to preserve their beauty and elegance. Compared to other materials, they are less susceptible to damage and wear and tear.
Wide range of design options: Concrete is an extremely flexible material that can be molded into almost any shape. This enables a wide range of design options, from classic straight staircases to complex spiral staircases.
Combinability with other materials: Concrete staircases are particularly attractive in combination with other materials such as steel and wood. The cool elegance of concrete harmonizes perfectly with the warm radiance of wood and the modern look of steel.
The style of concrete stairs
Concrete stairs are characterized by their simple yet impressive aesthetics. They embody the modern, minimalist style that is so popular in contemporary architecture. The clear lines and smooth surface give the stairs an elegant and timeless look.
Combination with wood
Wooden elements bring warmth and naturalness to the design of concrete stairs. Handrails, steps or banisters made of wood create an interesting contrast to the cool, smooth concrete surfaces. This combination is not only visually appealing, but also functional, as wood offers a pleasant feel and ensures additional safety.
Combination with steel
Steel and concrete form a perfect symbiosis for modern staircase solutions. Steel balustrades or beams complement the concrete stairs and enhance their industrial look. This combination of materials is particularly popular in modern loft apartments and office buildings where an urban, industrial look is required.
Areas of application for concrete stairs
Concrete stairs are used in numerous areas. Their robustness and versatility make them the ideal choice for:
- Private residences: Whether for indoor or outdoor use, concrete stairs offer a durable and stylish solution for homes.
- Public buildings: Thanks to their durability, concrete stairs are ideal for high-traffic public areas such as schools, hospitals and offices.
- Commercial properties: In business premises and industrial buildings, concrete stairs impress with their resilience and modern design.

Questions and answers about the cantilever staircase
The terms cantilever staircase and cantilever staircase are often used interchangeably. Technically speaking, the cantilever describes the load-bearing component, i.e. the invisible anchoring in the wall. The cantilever step is the visible element - the step itself. In practice, both terms mean the same thing: a self-supporting staircase with wall anchoring on one side and a floating appearance.
Yes, our cantilever staircases are manufactured exclusively for indoor use. The special anchoring technology and the materials used are not designed for outdoor use. Indoors, however, the cantilever staircase offers many advantages: it looks light and open, saves space and fits perfectly into modern living concepts. We will be happy to advise you on alternative designs for balconies or outdoor staircases.
Depending on the design requirements and spatial effect, we offer various materials for cantilevered steps. Steps made of solid wood are popular - they look warm and homely. Concrete steps, on the other hand, emphasize a purist, urban ambience. Combined with glass railings, they create an elegant and transparent solution. It goes without saying that we pay attention to the highest quality workmanship and durability for all materials - individually tailored to your wishes and the style of your home.
The cost of a cantilever staircase varies greatly - depending on the material, wall structure, number of steps, railing design and individual design requirements. The structural requirements and structural conditions also play a role. We would be happy to provide you with a non-binding quote based on an initial consultation.
Even if the construction appears light, cantilever staircases offer maximum stability and meet all building regulations requirements. The steps are fixed to load-bearing walls using special anchoring systems that are statically calculated in advance. On request, we can integrate a glass railing or other fall protection system, which increases the feeling of safety without detracting from the floating appearance.
Above all, the load-bearing capacity of the wall to which the steps are to be attached is crucial. Solid walls (e.g. made of concrete or solid brick) are ideal. In the case of lightweight walls or unclear structural conditions, we will be happy to check the options on site. In many cases, special solutions can also be implemented - we will advise you individually and check whether a cantilever staircase is feasible in your building project.
