2-1/2" Thick Poplar - Stain Grade Landing Platform - Butcher Block

Elevate your staircase with the 21/2" Poplar Butcher Block Landing Platform-a bold, substantial landing that commands attention from every angle. Solid 5/4 boards are glued face-to-face to achieve the full 21/2" thickness, showcasing beautiful face grain on all 6 sanded and finished sides. A 1/8" roundover on every edge adds a refined finishing touch. Poplar is a fine-grained hardwood with a smooth, consistent surface that excels as a paint-grade option, delivering a flawless finish when painted. Its light green-to-cream coloring and even texture make it an ideal substrate for custom color schemes. While softer than oak or maple (Janka 540), Poplar is a cost-effective choice for painted staircases where a perfect, uniform surface matters most. Available in standard sizes of 36" x 36", 42" x 42", and 48" x 48"-or specify a custom size. Choose unfinished to apply your own stain or clear coat, or select a pre-finished option for a ready-to-install landing platform. These landings look exceptional paired with Viewrail FLIGHT floating stairs, cable railing, or glass railing for a seamless modern aesthetic. Matching stair treads are available to complete your staircase.
