The Original StairSlide - Turn Your Stairs into a Slide - Indoor Playset - 4 Pack

Product Information

As we mentioned above, we have been involved with a project like this in the past where we took an under-stairs space and turned it into a cupboard which was used for a multitude of things. Get a friend to help: Installing a slide on your stairs is no easy feat, so make sure you have a friend to help you out. It’s always better to have two sets of hands!

Safety first: Make sure you have all the necessary safety equipment, such as a helmet and knee pads. You don’t want to end up with any bumps or bruises! Add finishing touches: Sand the surfaces of the cupboard and apply paint, stain, or varnish to match the aesthetics of your staircase or complement your interior decor. You can also add hooks or holders inside the cupboard to hang smaller items or tools.

How much are loft ladders?

Finally, you’ll need to cut two pieces of foam padding that are the same length as the plywood. These will be used to cushion the slide and make it more comfortable. Make sure to use a sharp knife or scissors to cut the foam, and wear safety goggles to protect your eyes.With the shelf runners in place you can now add the facing boards to the cupboard, fixing the sides permanently. Remember to drill pilot holes which you have countersunk for filling later. We put all stair gates through an impact test where they are hit three times with a 25kg weight (that's roughly the same weight as a small female labrador or a large springer spaniel), to see if the gate comes loose or breaks.

The old saying still rings true; ‘measure twice, cut once’. Whilst it’s always important to make sure you’re accurate with measuring for cuts, it’s doubly so under stairs, where gaps and space are tight. If not, your doors may not open properly and, in the case of version 2, the drawers may open in a lop sided way making the whole lot look very ugly.Make sure the slide is installed at the right angle. You don’t want to be sliding down the stairs at a 90-degree angle!
