I think I know the answer to this, but want to double check.
Starting to think about the stairs for our loft conversion, thinking of doing this:
There would be a wall running along the right hand side of the main run (ie back of the picture) as you would expect, BUT not along the bottom, ie the right hand side of the winder (and picture).
As I understand it, guard rails are only required where the drop is more than 600mm. So if we kept our risers below 200mm, the 3 step winder wouldn't require a guard rail.
So, this meets the regs.
Right?!?!
