      It's the same height as the other 2 units we have.  We have the problem of some cross beams being at chest height, but it's still a lot of storage…

        I don't know why but from memory I swore the height felt lower than the rest.

        can't wait to see the finished project though..

          It looks lower than it really is from ground level.  When you get up there, there is a surprising amount of headroom….

            @AdamC:

            Are these 2x6? If so what is the span of that middle section?

              Span 3200mm.  2x5's.  400mm centres.  The T&G chipboard flooring will be screwed into the 2x5's in a sort of Les, "let's see how many boxes of screws we can get through" fashion, which will add a load of rigidity…..

                400mm centres… that makes more sense.

                  And in the mean-time, I'm praying that I configured them correctly  😶 😶

                  You infact did, per our good old german DIN 18065 says that a frequently used Stair should have a Rise between 14-20cm and a going between 23-27cm, which means your in regulation. 18cm/26cm is as stated in the Books rated as "bequem" which means comfortable. Sounds like a nice Stair.

                                            Great!!!

                                            Sorry to offer unsolicited advice, but the industry I work in, we have a certain mindset drilled into us which also encourages offering unsolicited advice on the subject.  😉
