A method of assembly over a household staircase, comprising the steps of:
- attaching mounting members to two landings between which is a household staircase;
- securing at least one support member to the mounting members as the mounting members attach to the two landings;
- supporting the plurality of modular units with at least one supporting member as the mounting members are secured to at least one supporting member;
- and
- elevating the plurality of modular units above the household staircase without the modular units touching the household staircase as the at least one supporting member supports the plurality of modular units and as the mounting members secure to the at least one support member and attach to the two landings;
- and
- retaining the plurality of modular units in their relative position so as to neighbor each other in succession, whereby the modular units define a travel path for pets to travel between the two landings over the household staircase.
