VASTU FOR STAIRCASE:-

Staircases – or stairs for short – are an important part of each and every multistory house.

Stairs allow you to move from one level of the home to another level – easily and fluently.

In Vastu Shastra, staircases are given very high importance; it is said, believed – and even validated – that a staircase which does not comply with the rules and regulations of Vastu shastra leads to frequent – in many cases, major – accidents, and loss of wealth and mental tension.

On the other hand, if stairs are located – and built – as per Vastu, then the residents enjoy wealth, health and peace of mind.
