Make a clean, modern statement with the 2.5" Butcher Block Landing Platform. Solid 5/4 boards are glued face-to-face to build up a full 2.5" thickness, so you're looking at the beautiful face grain — never the edge — on every surface. Each of the 6 sides is sanded smooth and finished to your specifications, with a refined 1/8" roundover on every edge.

At 2.5" thick, this platform carries meaningful visual weight and structural presence without requiring a support pan beneath — making it the most popular butcher block platform thickness for most residential applications.

Select your wood species from the dropdown to find the perfect match for your staircase. Each species brings its own character — from the bold grain of Hickory and the warm aging of Cherry, to the clean precision of Hard Maple and the modern versatility of White Oak. Whether you prefer a natural clear finish or a custom stain, your chosen species determines the look, the feel, and the story of your staircase.

Available in standard sizes of 36" x 36", 42" x 42", and 48" x 48" — or use our Custom Platform Builder to specify a custom size down to the 1/4". Choose unfinished to apply your own stain or clear coat, or select a pre-finished option for a ready-to-install landing platform. Matching stair treads are available to complete your staircase.
