Staircase stringer calculator

Features & Capabilities

Easily create staircase stringers with only one measurement. Customize each component to suit your materials. Includes extensive help and printable plans and blueprints.

Create an ideal staircase with one simple measurement. Fine-tune the stairs to fit your space with an easy to use and understand, graphical interface.

Enter the total rise, and the app calculates total run (base length or overall run), pitch (angle or slope), unit run (goings or tread), unit rise (rise or step height), and all other measurements. You can then adjust the total run to fit your available space or preferred tread materials. A feature unique to Delux Stairs fine-tunes the stringer to accommodate for differences in flooring thicknesses such as the tread thickness and upper and lower finished flooring. This ensures every step is identical, which is the difference between clumsy, dangerous, amateur stairs and professional-quality, comfortable, code-compliant stairs. Additional stair details, such as nosing, riser thickness and stringer dimensions are also calculated and adjustable.

Blueprint plans can be directly printed or emailed in PDF which include platform position options, stringer peak positions, bottom step rise adjustments, top step run adjustments, and more.

The headroom clearance tool is also unique to Delux Stairs and not only shows you top floor opening requirements with adjustable floor thicknesses, but also continuous headroom obstruction clearance from the top to the bottom of the stairs.

◎ No ads, notifications, permission, subscriptions or in-app purchases. ◎ Direct visual graphic feedback for quick, easy to understand design. ◎ Diagrams & info screens make the sometimes cryptic terms clear. ◎ Email the finished blueprints to the client or to yourself. ◎ Print finished blueprints on any AirPrint-compatible printer. ◎ Takes flooring and tread thickness differences into account to ensure each step is identical to comply with building codes. ◎ Presets for Outdoor (decking), Indoor (plywood or hardwood) or Masonry (concrete) stairs. ◎ Perfect for open stringer and concrete designs & a great starting point for housed and box stairs. ◎ Headroom Clearance tool for determining top floor opening as well as continuous overhead obstruction clearance. ◎ High contrast, large text screens can be seen in bright sunlight at the job site.

  • Imperial or Metric systems

User Reviews

Delux Stairs is user-friendly and time-saving for basic layouts and plan sharing, with generally strong value. However, it suffers from reliability problems, limited design options, export/print limitations, weak support, and occasional measurement inaccuracies, which appear across multiple reviews.
Pros
  • User-friendly and clear for planning basic stair layouts.
  • Saves time and reduces guesswork in calculations.
  • Plans can be emailed and printed from within the app.
  • Generally good value and worth the price.
  • Helpful for beginners and professionals; widely used to speed up projects.
Cons
  • Stability issues and crashes during use and when emailing plans.
  • Limited stair configurations and design options (no winders, final elevation issues, limited rise options; some projects exceed limits).
  • Cannot easily export to PDF or print; relies on emailing plans; no built-in print function.
  • Support and updates are poor or hard to reach (no reliable contact, dead links, outdated).
  • Some blueprint measurements are inconsistent or incorrect and headroom is unclear.

I purchased it and can not complete my project since it limits your rise at 12 feet. Total waste of money.

I bought the app because I was mislead by the screenshots and believed I would be able to calculate for winder stairs... not the case! The app seems very user friendly, but I could figure out basic rise and run with the calculator on my phone. I am very disappointed

Many fields were not customizable or accurate enough. does not seem like a “deluxe” app or worth 5 or 6$.
