      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.

                              G, may be a good idea to add a smoke alarm under the Mezzanine?

                                        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.  😉

                                          A fire is something that worries the shit out of me, Adam C and I talked about doing this a year or so ago and then forgot, so your unsolicited advice was a very welcome reminder.
