Why Choose Stone Steps?

Our stone steps collection is not just decorative add-ons. They act as the structural elements that guide movement, manage elevation changes, and show outdoor flow. When you opt for natural stone, you enjoy longevity and graceful aging better than concrete or manufactured alternatives.

Choosing the Right Stone Steps

The right stone steps should be selected according to layout, height change, and surrounding materials.

Match Stone to Surroundings

Even if you prefer a contrasted look for your natural stone steps, make sure it complements the surroundings. Choose a stone that complements nearby pavers, walls or coping. Consistent color tone helps the steps feel intentional instead of forced.

Select Proper Dimensions

Stone steps come in standard thicknesses, perfect for outdoor use. Deeper treads offer better safety, especially on garden stairs and main walkways.

Step thickness is typically 2″–6″, which will support structural loads.

Tread depth should be 12″; 14″–16″ minimum, which is preferred for safe outdoor walking.

Riser height should stay between 6″–7″ for a comfortable step rhythm

Step width is commonly 36″–60″, which is adjusted to traffic flow

Overhang (nosing) should be 1″–1.5″ when required for visual alignment and grip

Plan for Correct Installation

Stone straps require precise and accurate installation due to their usage. This also matters in their longevity. A compacted base with proper drainage and level placement is crucial. Stone steps require structural support and don’t just rely on adhesives only. 

NT Pavers offer professional guidance to ensure correct material selection and layout planning.
