Staircases are horizontal surfaces on which the steps of a staircase are placed, allowing movement up or down the staircase.

Staircases are usually located between landings or turns and can have different design features depending on the type of staircase and its purpose. For example, flights can be straight, steep, spiral, etc. It is important that the flights of stairs are wide enough and comfortable to use the staircase safely.
