Stairs Importcnt In Home
More attention should be given to stairways in the home, according to the Housing and Home Finance Agency. Stairs are often built steep to save space, but it may be a dangerous economy. Treads of steps should be sufficiently deep, and risers enough for comfortable and safe use.
