One of Kids bought a new house. Needed a set of Stairs put off the Front deck to get furniture and such in the house. The deck has a double door off it into the house. The people that sold it took stuff off the back of the deck 80’ or so to the driveway. My Son-in-law asked if I could build a set of stairs. The 5’ wide gate was already on the deck. I had him pour a concrete pad, and made some stairs. And their even Level!

Looks good. Plenty of bracing to handle load. From the rails and wire I'd say it's little kid and pet safe too.

Yeah, on that handrail you should check, it might be code as well as a good idea. Might even make your insurance a little chesper.

Most areas that follow the IRC codes require railings on stairs and decks with an elevation over 30" or more than 4 risers on the steps.
