What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the metal stringers for exceptional sturdiness and durability, consistently describing them as strong, heavy-duty, and superior to wooden alternatives. Many highlight the ease of installation, crediting pre-drilled holes and lightweight metal construction for simplifying the process. The sleek, modern design with clean lines earns appreciation for enhancing decks and porches. Some note missing connectors and recommend using number eight screws instead of number ten for composite treads. A few mention tight spaces require specialized tools. Despite minor assembly quirks and occasional missing hardware, most customers consider the product reliable and worth the investment.

The packaging is small enough sit in small car
Would RecommendThe product came fast and was extremely easy to put together. Overall the product appears to be built extremely well. We have over 300 lbs members climbing the steps and they don't even move or shake.
Heavy Duty and sturdy
Heady duty at the deck connection point but definitely need a solid base as well. Saved me time over building stringers.

Would RecommendExactly what I needed

Well made but missing parts
Would RecommendI got 6 five step segments to make two 15 step stringers and they only sent two brackets to connect the segments together. I needed four brackets. I called lowes to order the missing brackets hopefully they arrive soon
Finish trashed
Would Not RecommendOrdered these ship to store. Lowes wrapped three sides of the set with cardboard, leaving one side and both ends unprotected. Will need to repaint them, as the finish was trashed. As there is no other way to source these from Lowes besides shipping, I would not order again.

Clumsy to assemble
Would RecommendWe’ll made, but not we’ll engineered
Looks good and works well
Would RecommendEasy to use and work well. Seem to be very sturdy. They were relatively easy to assemble. However the online directions I received were a bit lacking. Use #8 screws to attach the treads not the #10 they suggest. Also I believe 1" long #8 screws would suffice. I used 1 1/4" and they almost split the wood. Also there will be some tight areas so I would suggest a 6" or 8" extension for your driver to install the tread screws. I didn't have one so my screws had to go in at an angle. 5/16" (...
