A handy way to capture awkward angles
The useful part is being able to set the ends to the stair and transfer the outline to the board. Take your time locking everything before lifting it.

What size stair openings does it measure?
The adjustable span is 8 to 60 inches. Measure the opening before ordering and make sure the end components can sit securely against the sides.
Can the angles be adjusted?
Yes. The angle components are described as 360° adjustable, allowing you to position them to capture the end shape you need to transfer. Lock the hardware and check for movement before lifting the template.
What is it made from?
The tool is described as solid aluminum. It is intended as a reusable stair tread measuring and layout jig.
What comes in the package?
The kit is listed as including adjustable rails, end/angle components, locking hardware and a carry case. Please compare the package contents with the product photos.
How do I use it?
Fit the rails to the opening, position the end components, adjust the angles, tighten the locking hardware, then transfer the outline to your tread blank. Recheck the template and dry-fit the cut tread before final installation.
Will it fit every staircase?
The stated adjustment range is 8–60 inches. Compatibility with every winding stair, bullnose profile or unusual clearance is not guaranteed. If your stairs have an unusual shape, contact us with a photo and measurements before ordering.
How long does shipping take?
Estimated delivery is 7–12 business days. Actual transit can vary by destination and carrier. Your tracking information will provide the latest shipment updates.
Can I return it?
We offer a 90-day return period. Please contact customer support with your order number to start a return and follow the store's returns instructions.
What if my order arrives damaged?
If the product arrives damaged, contact us with your order number and clear photos of the damage. We will arrange a free replacement.
Does it guarantee a perfect cut?
No template can replace checking the actual fit. Measure each stair separately, make sure the locking points have not shifted, verify the outline on the material and dry-fit each cut tread before finishing.
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
What Our Customers Say
reviews
★★★★★
Makes repeat measuring more organised
I like having one adjustable tool for laying out the stair openings rather than trying to keep several separate measurements together.
★★★★★
Good concept for stair projects
The adjustable span gives some flexibility and the angle pieces are helpful for recording the ends. I still double-check each tread before cutting.
★★★★★
Worth checking the fit before every cut
It helps me carry the shape over to the material. The important thing is to make sure the template has not shifted when you move it.
★★★★★
Useful addition to the workshop
★★★★★
saves a few steps in the layout process
★★★★★
Adjustable and practical
The range is useful for different openings within its stated limits. I would recommend measuring your stairs first to make sure it is suitable.
★★★★★
Helpful for transferring the stair shape
The template gives me a physical outline to work from. I still dry-fit the tread, but it makes the transfer process easier to follow.
★★★★★
A reusable measuring jig
I like that I can reset it for another step instead of making a new pattern each time. Check every opening because they can vary.

A useful tool when replacing treads
FIELD NOTES / TRANSFER STUDY
Same outline. Different surface.
Set the plates against the walls, lock the knobs and carry that outline to the blank. This diagram shows the principle from above.
THE FIELD GUIDE / 01
The measurement isn't finished until it reaches the board.
A tape gives you a distance. AngleCraft combines adjustable rails and two end plates to capture the shape of the opening as a physical template.
01 / FIT THE OPENING
Let the actual walls set the shape.
Position the end plates where the tread will sit. Adjust the rails to span the opening and set each plate against its wall. Measure every step individually: neighbouring stairs can differ.
02 / LOCK AND TRANSFER
Secure the setup before you move it.
Tighten the included locking hardware, then lift the template by its rails. Before tracing, check that the end plates still sit correctly in the opening. If anything has shifted, reset it first.
03 / TRACE AND TEST-FIT
Take the outline to your tread blank.
Lay the template on the material, trace both ends and make your cut. Dry-fit the tread before finishing it, especially when the opening or wall line is irregular.
AT THE WORKBENCH
One job. Different ways to make a template.
| Workflow | AngleCraft | Tape + bevel | Scrap template |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capture the opening | Adjust rails and end plates together | Take separate readings | Build a pattern by hand |
| Transfer to the blank | Place and trace the physical outline | Recreate measurements | Place and trace the pattern |
| Move to another step | Reset the adjustable template | Measure again | Adjust or make another pattern |
BEFORE YOUR FIRST CUT
Confident measurements. Cleaner cuts.
Will it fit my staircase?
The adjustable rails cover stair widths from 8″ to 60″, with a 360° angle gauge to help capture the shape at each end. Check your measurements against that range before ordering. If your staircase has an unusual shape, send us a photo and measurements and we'll help you check.
How does it help me get a more accurate fit?
Set the rails and end plates to match the tread, secure the locking points, then transfer that shape to your material. It keeps the width and end angles together in one adjustable template instead of measuring and transferring each part separately.
Do I need to measure every stair?
Yes. Measure each opening individually—even if the steps look identical. Older and finished staircases can vary slightly from one tread to the next.
How do I check it before making a cut?
Tighten the locking points, lift and reposition the template, then check that it still sits correctly in the opening. If anything has shifted or rocks, reset it before tracing. Always check your marked measurements and dry-fit the cut piece before final installation.
Is it sturdy enough for repeated projects?
The template is made from solid aluminium and is adjustable for repeated measuring. Secure the locking hardware before lifting or transferring it, and store the components safely in the supplied carry case.
What if my order arrives damaged?
Let us know and we'll replace damaged items free of charge. Contact our support team with your order details and clear photos of the damage so we can arrange the replacement.
How long does delivery take, and can I return it?
