The portable pathway further includes a pliable frame member; a row of mating holes disposed on each side of the pliable frame member; a set of steps coupled to the pliable frame member; wherein one or more of the set of steps is coupled to the pliable frame member with a mount that aligns with the row of mating holes on each of the corresponding sides of the pliable frame member.

Staircase with adjustable height risers
12258764 · 2025-03-25 ·

A staircase kit, device, and method that uses precut, fixed-sized components capable of producing building code-compliant staircases that can accommodate foot or more differences in home story heights. The design uses fixed-length stringers and adjustable height risers. The angle between the stringers to the floor changes depending on the height of the adjustable height risers and story height. The angles of the steps, stringers and banisters/handrails are configured to adjust with respect to the other components with the aid of turnbuckles and movable joints or bolts, thus keeping the steps and landings level at different story heights. This enables homeowners, generally exempt from contractor license requirements, to use a prefabricated kit to build code-compliant stairways in their homes with little or no staircase cutting or part modification.

Floating modular stair system

A floating modular stair system includes a wall mounting plate that is attachable to a vertical wall, and a base mounting plate that is anchorable to a horizontal floor. A monostringer beam is attachable to the wall mounting plate and to the base mounting plate. The monostringer beam includes an integrated hook attachment for variable angle adjustment and attachment to the wall mounting plate. Stair tread brackets are attachable to the monostringer beam for equal spacing of stair treads after installation of the monostringer beam to the wall mounting plate and to the base mounting plate. Each of the stair tread brackets are also designed for individual variable angle adjustment and leveling after attachment to the monostringer beam, and the stair tread brackets are rotatable through an adjustable anchor point about a fixed pivot anchor point to level the stair treads of the floating modular stair system.
