3" Paint Grade Butcher Block Tread

Make a confident architectural statement with the 3” Paint Grade Butcher Block Stair Tread. At a full 3” thick, these treads are built from solid 5/4 lumber glued face-to-face—delivering face grain beauty on all 6 sanded and finished sides with zero edge grain in sight. A 1/8” roundover on every edge gives a refined, intentional look. Paint Grade treads are crafted from a carefully selected blend of hardwood species, engineered specifically for a smooth, paintable surface. The glued-up butcher block construction is sanded to a flawless finish, ready to accept any interior paint color. Paint Grade is the ideal choice when you want a custom painted staircase that integrates seamlessly with trim, millwork, or a bold accent color—without compromising on the structural strength of solid wood. Available in standard widths of 36”, 42”, 48”, 54”, 60”, and 72”—or specify a custom size—with an 11-1/4” depth that meets code. Choose unfinished or pre-finished to your specifications. The 3” thickness is a popular choice for Viewrail FLIGHT floating stair systems, complemented beautifully by cable or glass railing.
