Key Insights
Treated Lumber: Risk of soil/water contamination from preservatives; deforestation concerns if not sustainably sourced.
Aluminum: Mining impacts (habitat destruction, water pollution) but mitigated if recycled aluminum is used.
Treated Lumber: Lower upfront emissions, but frequent replacement increases long-term impact.
Aluminum: Higher upfront emissions, but long lifespan and recyclability reduce overall footprint over decades.
Treated Lumber: Difficult: treated wood cannot be safely burned or composted; must go to landfill or specialized disposal.
Aluminum: Highly recyclable; aluminum retains quality through repeated recycling with far less energy than initial production.
Treated Lumber: Requires sealing, staining, and replacement of damaged boards.
Aluminum: Minimal maintenance; occasional cleaning only.
Treated Lumber: 10–25 years with maintenance; prone to rot, warping, and insect damage.
Aluminum: 30–50+ years; resistant to corrosion, rot, and weathering.
Treated Lumber: Pressure-treated with preservatives (copper, arsenic, or newer alternatives) that can leach into soil/water.
Aluminum: No chemical leaching during use; inert material once produced.
Treated Lumber: Moderate energy use for milling and chemical treatment.
Aluminum: Very high energy use in smelting and refining processes.
Treated Lumber: Harvested from trees; renewable IF sourced sustainably.
Aluminum: Extracted from bauxite ore; mining is highly disruptive to ecosystems.

EZ Beach Steps ... Moving With Nature
Key Features:
EZ Beach Steps is a 100% women owned, award winning business based in Michigan. Our groundbreaking solution to the persistent challenge of the ever changing shoreline, water levels and sand dune accretion & erosion provides unmatched ease, customization, and adaptability.

I recently built a home on Lake Michigan. Like many of my neighbors in Southwest Michigan, my 88 ft. cliff is in a state of perpetual erosion, given water seeping from the upper clay levels. Brittle wooden stairs and supports were not a solution given their intolerance for ground movement. Instead, I was fortunate to contact Lisa Spaugh, the owner EZ Beach Steps, an innovative aluminum alternative to traditional wooden stairs. Lisa introduced me to Clayton Kuipers, the owner of Lake Shore Customs, a preferred EZ Beach Step installation company. Clayton and his team assessed my eroding cliff and challenging beach access situation and provided an affordable bid to construct a stair and deck solution. Clayton's crew built the system over 5 or 6 working days, much to my satisfaction. The EZ Beach Stairs are made of strong and durable material and the installation was built to last. I highly recommend EZ Beach Steps of West Olive and Lakeshore Customs of Holland, Michigan.

We read about EZ Beach Steps in the news and online. The EZ crew gave us instructions & tips on how to assemble everything.
We attached the first bracket to the last portion of our existing wooden stairs which still had 48 steps. We installed it all ourselves.
The design has several benefits:
1. A 10-foot section can be carried by two people, although carrying it while climbing down the bluff is better with three or four people.
2. The steps have a "scissors" action to them that allows you to position the steps on the bluff according to how steep your descent is, while keeping the steps/treads themselves level.
3. Each set of steps connects to the section above it with a bracket, so only two steep posts at the bottom of each section are required to install each set of EZ Steps or platform.
4. The steps and platforms also come with handrails that are easy to install.
