Stair Diagram Generator
Generate detailed, printable stair diagrams with all measurements. Side view, stringer template, and dimension labels.
How It Works
Enter your total rise and desired run per step. The generator creates a detailed SVG diagram showing the side profile of your staircase with every measurement labeled: individual rise and run dimensions, total rise, total run, stringer length, angle, and stringer throat depth. The diagram is drawn to scale and can be printed for use on the job site. Use it as a reference for cutting stringers, verifying dimensions, and communicating with clients.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I print the stair diagram?
Yes! The diagram is generated as an SVG which prints cleanly at any size. Use your browser's print function (Ctrl+P / Cmd+P) to print the page, or right-click the diagram to save it as an image.
Are the diagrams to scale?
The diagrams are proportionally accurate — the rise-to-run ratio and angles are correct. However, the physical print size depends on your paper and print settings. Use the labeled measurements for actual construction dimensions.
What measurements are shown on the diagram?
The diagram labels: individual rise height, individual run depth, total rise, total run, stringer length, cut angle, throat depth, and nosing overhang. All dimensions are shown in inches.
