How I made steps for my frontyard

Frontyard Timber Steps and garden makeover.

Relatively steep slope, was difficult to mow lawn. Had quotes for concrete steps which were astronomical. 

I decided to try my hand at steps and the project evolved from there. Used 75mm sienna sleepers from Bunnings for longevity and strength.

Re: How I made steps for my frontyard

Hi @Ammy 

 

If there is 670mm of height difference between the top and bottom of the area, and if you were to use the minimum rise of a step of 130mm, you could have five steps over that area. The depth of each step would be around 1000mm.
