Stairs

The stairs icon represents a means of accessing different levels or floors. In a medical context, the icon might be used to indicate that stairs are available for patients, visitors, or staff. Accessible stairs are essential in healthcare settings, as they provide a convenient and safe way for people to move between floors.

In software applications, the stairs icon may appear in hospital information systems, facility management software, or accessibility guides. For example, in a hospital information system, the stairs icon might be used to indicate that stairs are available on a particular floor or in a specific department. In facility management software, the icon might be used to represent the facilities management team or to indicate that stair maintenance is being performed.

From a UX perspective, the stairs icon communicates that stairs are available for access. The icon helps users understand the functionality of a system or software application and navigate to the relevant section. For instance, a user might click on the stairs icon to find the location of stairs on a hospital campus.

Stairs is one of 144 icons in Medical Icons, made by Samuel Frémondière and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 63 × 64 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds StairsIcon to components/icons/medical-icon-stairs.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed StairsIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Stairs icon, or any of 144 Medical Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 63 × 64 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Stairs", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. StairsIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <StairsIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Medical Icons, Samuel Frémondière and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
