Brass plated stair parts can last anywhere from 40 to 70 years. Because it is heavier than copper, brass usually lasts longer; however, it is susceptible to the same corrosion over time.

Glass stairs will collect dirt and grime in the same way that any other staircase would, however it will be much more visible. The main offenders are fingerprints and dust, which are easy to clean away. Simply wipe your glass stairs down with glass cleaner and a microfibre cloth any time they start to look dirty.

Glass panels for stairs are made from tempered glass, which is typically 8mm to 10mm thick. The toughening process involves subjecting the glass to high heat, around 700 degrees Celsius, which is known as quenching. This creates a strong layer on both sides of the glass, locking in tensions in the core of the glass. As a result of this, glass becomes four times as strong, providing maximum reliability.
