Asked by Debi September 21, 20183

What is the rough size of each step on two step tread
Asked by Bubba March 9, 20203
AnswersI think you are asking what the run measurement is. That's the measurement from the front of the stair to the back. This stringer is listed at 11.25". The minimum tread run is 11" with no overhand, 10 nose-to-nose if there is overhang.
Are these made from 2x10s?
Asked by HomerHAsNothingOnMe July 21, 20153
AnswersThese are southern yellow pine so they can take more load. The minimum width is 3 1/2" so it is the same as a 2x4. The following calculator should allow you to figure out the maximum span for 2x4 southern pine (southern yellow pine). http://www.awc.org/codes-standards/calculators-software/spancalc

poor quality stair stringers
August 24, 2020
I purchased these pre-cut stair stringers. They are garbage made with poor qaulity lumber. I should have bought my own wood and taken the time to cut the stringers myself.
This product made rebuilding our deck steps easy and look great.

stair stringers dont match
June 12, 2020
Why do all 3 stringers not match? Are they not supposed to be identicle? I waited 2 weeks for these and at best i think i can use 2? Who cut these things a blind monkey? Terrible!

Time Saving Solution For Long Stair Runs
May 7, 2020
These pine stringers saved me a lot of time and effort when I needed to rebuild my entire porch. It is difficult to find a 8-step stringer. The stringers I received were in excellent shape and Home Depot even shipped them for free. I mounted the stringers using concealed stringer hangers for a strong and safe connection. Some reviews mention that these stringers are splitting, but I have had them outside for over 5 months with no excessive splits or cracks, known as checks. I let the stringers dry outside for about 4 months before applying a weather seal stain. These stringers are a real time saver for longer stair runs.

Great for those who don't want to mess with calculating rise and run. Convenient. Even as a template to cut your own. One of
the stringers was trying to split. Had to pre drill and screw it. Otherwise dimensions were consistent.
Great price. Awesome pre-made stairs worked perfectly.

I had to order this online since it wasnt available in stores (which is why I gave it 4 stars). It was delivered within a reasonable amount of time and was perfect to build stairs for our new deck.
I really wanted a challenge putting my deck stairs on
April 3, 2016
Executive Summary: Not quality, frustrating, but will do if you're up for a challenge to mending wood and doing some math.
The pieces arrived in two generally beat up boxes (delivery folks weren't pleased to drop it off).
I ordered 4, one of which was not like the others but could generally work around it. A couple of treads were 1/2" deeper than others but generally usable.
A couple of them looked like they ran unevenly through a table saw. About 1/16" was cut into a side. Again, not a deal breaker but certainly not quality.
There was an uneven edge to the bottom of the stringer. Again, nothing that can't be worked around if you're up to the challenge.
I then tried to attach the hangers to them and wound up splitting the wood straight through knocking a riser off. That's because the grains are parallel to the treads which, oddly enough, is where the nails drive into. So, a little pre-drilling before nailing on others and some mending tiles on the knocked off bits, and it's solid again.
So, if you're wondering why I didn't return them. Boxes were too beat up to re-use, I don't have a car to transport, and, before this experience I imagined this is always how it goes.
Now I've learned better: When in doubt, return it.
Thanks for the learning experience.
