Build a landing or a full run of stairs from single pieces with the EP Henry Belmont Chiseled Step, a wet-cast concrete step unit in Bluestone that measures 47-1/2 in long, 15 in deep and 6 in high. The front edge carries a hand-chiseled profile with the rugged, split look of quarried stone, while the top stays smooth and structured for a sure footing. Each unit forms a complete 47-1/2 in tread, so there are no cuts or joints across the step, and a factory-applied sealer deepens the blue-grey color and resists stains.
Key Features
-
One-piece tread: The large-format Belmont step spans a 47-1/2 in width in a single unit, giving a seamless tread that installs without cutting.
-
Single chiseled edge: This Bluestone unit is chiseled on one long face, with a smoother, structured top that reads as dressed natural stone.
-
Stackable landings: Lay units back-to-back to build deeper landings between elevations, or step them up a slope for a straight run.
-
Factory sealer: A sealer applied at the plant enhances the Bluestone color and helps the step shrug off stains and foot traffic.

How to Install It
Excavate and compact a well-drained aggregate base under each step so the units cannot settle or tip, then set the first step level from side to side with a slight forward pitch for drainage. Stack each following unit on the one below, overlapping the tread by a consistent amount to keep the rise even, and bond the steps with flexible concrete adhesive. Place two units back-to-back where you need a wider landing. At 233 lb each, plan on equipment or a crew to set them. Finish the flanking walls with Belmont Caps and the Cast Stone Wall Collection in the same Bluestone color for a matched look.

The EP Henry Belmont Chiseled Step (the former Chilton chiseled step) is a wet-cast concrete step unit, 47-1/2 x 15 x 6 in, 233 lb per piece, in Bluestone with a single chiseled long edge and a factory-applied sealer. It is now produced as a Belgard Metro and Mid-Atlantic product from the former EP Henry plants. Each unit is a complete tread at 47-1/2 in wide, so a straight run needs no field cuts and no cross joints; units stack for successive risers or lay back-to-back for landings. Sold per piece; three pieces (700 lb, 11.875 LF) per pallet.
Key Features
- Take-off: One unit per 6 in rise on a 47-1/2 in wide stair; add one unit per landing row (two units back-to-back give a 30 in deep landing). Pallets hold 3 pieces.
- Edge profile: Single-sided chiseled edge on this Bluestone SKU; the Brownstone unit is chiseled on three sides and is a special order. Specify the exposed face at layout so the finished edge lands on the nosing.
- Sealer: Factory-applied sealer enhances color and resists stains; no sealing at handover.
- System match: Coordinates with Belmont Caps and the Cast Stone Wall Collection in Bluestone and Brownstone for flanking walls, cheek walls and pier caps.
- About EP Henry: Manufactured with natural aggregates by EP Henry, part of Oldcastle APG since 2021 and sold through Belgard, with a lifetime transferable limited warranty.
How to Install It
Excavate to undisturbed subgrade and place a compacted open-graded or dense-graded aggregate base sized for the full stair footprint, so every unit bears on base rather than on backfill. Set the first step level side to side with a slight forward pitch to shed water, then stack subsequent units on the tread below with a consistent overlap that holds the rise at 6 in and the exposed tread at the design depth. Bond unit to unit with flexible concrete adhesive. Units weigh 233 lb; set with a machine and clamp or a crew with bars. Tie the run into Cast Stone Wall cheek walls and finish with Belmont Caps in the same color. Confirm total rise and finished grades on site and divide by the 6 in unit height to fix the step count before ordering, since pallets ship in threes.
