Step 2 · Step 2: Center for a Professional, Polished Look

A little prep work goes a long way in achieving a professional-looking result. Use a measuring tape to find the center of each wooden step and make a small, light mark with a pencil or chalk. This guide ensures every single tread lines up perfectly, bringing a sense of harmony and design to your staircase. And since our treads are proudly made in the USA and custom-made to fit, you can skip the hassle of trimming.
