{"title":"Anti Slip Stair Nosing","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnti-slip stair nosings cut slip risk on the part of a staircase where falls most often begin. The leading edge of a tread takes the concentrated weight of every footfall, wears fastest, and is the hardest part of the step to judge on the way down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA good nosing solves three problems at once: it caps and protects the edge, it presents a high-grip surface exactly where the foot lands, and it makes each tread clearly visible. Grip and contrast matter equally — most stair falls happen because the edge was misread, not because the surface was slippery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the grip is actually produced\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe body of a nosing provides almost no grip on its own.

It is the only method the HSE recognises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe wet figure is the one that matters.\u003c\/strong\u003e Almost any surface performs well dry. The HSE bands wet results as 0–24 high slip potential, 25–35 moderate, and \u003cstrong\u003e36 or above low\u003c\/strong\u003e. Specify 65 or above where oil, grease or food waste is likely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou will also see R ratings, R9 to R13, from the German DIN 51130 ramp test. That test uses motor oil and safety boots, so it describes an industrial floor rather than a rainy stair, and the scales do not convert — a single R10 rating can correspond to pendulum results anywhere from 20 to 60. Ask for both figures and treat a supplier who can only quote an R rating as having given you half an answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the material\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminium\u003c\/strong\u003e — the general-purpose choice for indoor commercial and domestic stairs.

This GRP stair nosing is the retrofit answer: a 55mm x 55mm angle that caps the existing step edge in one piece, adding a hard, mineral-gritted wearing surface and a clearly defined leading edge without touching the structure underneath. It goes straight over timber, steel, concrete, stone and tiled steps in offices, schools, plant rooms, loading bays and public entrances.

That distinction matters on a stair. A self-adhesive abrasive strip fails in two ways: the adhesive lifts at the edges, and the abrasive face rubs smooth. A gritted GRP nosing keeps working as it wears, because the grit runs through the surface instead of sitting on top of it. The medium grit grade is the general-purpose choice – coarse enough for work boots and wet treads, but not so aggressive that it snags hands, shopping bags or soft-soled shoes in a busy public stairwell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA one-piece angle, not a patch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe section wraps the tread and the riser together, so the vulnerable front arris of the step is covered rather than filled. Crumbling concrete nosings and softened timber edges are held and protected underneath it, which is usually cheaper and far quicker than casting a repair.

Yellow, white and buff give the strongest contrast against grey concrete and are the usual choice where the stair has to read clearly for visually impaired users. Black, mid grey and brown recede into darker treads and timber, where the nosing is there to protect the edge rather than to announce it.

GRP Stair Nosing, Anti Slip Step Edge Trim for Concrete Steps","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpecifying a step edge for a commercial job is mostly a question of three decisions: how deep the nosing needs to be, how aggressive the grit needs to be, and how it fixes to whatever the treads are made of. This page is the project view of the FibreGrid EdgeGrip® Heavy Duty range – a pultruded GRP angle with ExtremeCore® ceramic grit, sold in two profiles, two grit grades, three colours and eight lengths so you can price a whole flight, a stairwell or a site off one line. If you want the product view instead, the same range is set out from the spec sheet up on our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/heavy-duty-grp-stair-nosings\"\u003eheavy duty GRP stair nosing page\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifying the profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe profile decision comes first because it is the one that a building control officer will look at. FibreGrid’s guidance is that a nosing must be \u003cstrong\u003e55mm x 55mm\u003c\/strong\u003e to meet Building Regulations on new build, since that puts the required depth on the tread and the same depth down the riser face. Specify it on new stairs, on any flight you are handing over as compliant, and wherever the step edge is being rebuilt rather than patched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e70mm x 30mm\u003c\/strong\u003e profile is the refurbishment shape. It puts 70mm of grit across the tread – more walking surface, more visual width from above – and drops only 30mm over the riser. That matters on an existing flight where the riser is shallow, already tiled or clad, or where a deeper return would foul the step below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the grit grade\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth grades carry the same ExtremeCore® ceramic grit, which FibreGrid rates at 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, bonded into the GRP rather than coated over it. The difference is particle size. \u003cstrong\u003eFine\u003c\/strong\u003e is the internal grade: a dense, even surface that sweeps clean and is comfortable underfoot in soft soles, for stairwells inside the building envelope. \u003cstrong\u003eCoarse\u003c\/strong\u003e is the external grade, with larger, more angular particles and more relief between them, so surface water clears rather than sitting as a film – the grade for fire escapes, yard steps, loading bays and anything under weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth were pendulum tested to BS 7976-2 by Floor Safe Ltd for FibreGrid (test FS10185, 1 March 2015, FourS 96 slider, water contaminant). Fine returned 67 dry and 62 wet; Coarse returned 69 dry and 64 wet. The HSE guidance printed on those certificates puts anything at 36 or above in the low slip potential band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eColour and step-edge definition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYellow is the high-visibility option and gives the strongest separation against grey concrete, which is why it is the default on plant, industrial and external stairs. White reads cleanly on pale stone, terrazzo and lighter interiors. Black is the quiet option for stairs where the edge is already defined some other way, or where the client wants the nosing to disappear. Note that no light reflectance value is published for this range, so if your specification calls for a documented visual contrast figure, raise it with us before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eItem\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRange\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFibreGrid EdgeGrip® Heavy Duty Anti Slip GRP Stair Nosings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePultruded glass reinforced plastic (GRP), ISO resin as standard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-slip surface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtremeCore® ceramic grit – manufacturer states 9 on the Mohs hardness scale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrades\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFine (internal), Coarse (external)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfiles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55mm x 55mm, 70mm x 30mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3mm including grit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYellow, White, Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600mm, 750mm, 800mm, 1000mm, 1200mm, 1500mm, 2000mm, 3000mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePendulum, Fine grade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 67 dry \/ 62 wet (BS 7976-2, FourS 96 slider, Floor Safe Ltd for FibreGrid, test FS10185, 01\/03\/2015)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePendulum, Coarse grade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 69 dry \/ 64 wet (BS 7976-2, FourS 96 slider, Floor Safe Ltd for FibreGrid, test FS10185, 01\/03\/2015)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eService temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e−20°C to 80°C – manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCutting tolerance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+\/- 3–4mm including cut – manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge detail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChamfered, which the manufacturer states is to avoid creating a further trip hazard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompliance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe manufacturer states the range is DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) and Building Regulations compliant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFire performance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA fire retardant version is offered by the manufacturer as an option; the stock profile sold here is standard ISO resin, and no fire classification is published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight reflectance value\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSubstrates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWood, concrete, metal, stone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBonded with high-strength gap-filling adhesive and mechanically screw-fixed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWorking out what to order\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the clear width of the tread, not the flight. A standard UK commercial stair is often 1000mm to 1200mm between strings, so one nosing per step usually comes off the 1000mm or 1200mm line; a domestic or access stair is more often 750mm or 800mm. Order the length that covers the full step in one run wherever you can – a single piece looks better and gives you fewer end joints to work loose. Where a step is wider than 3000mm, butt two lengths and keep the joint away from the walking line. Longer bars can be cut down on site, so ordering up and trimming is usually cheaper than joining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFixing to the substrate you have\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFibreGrid’s double fixing method bonds and bolts. Run a 6mm bead of high-strength gap-filling adhesive around the underside about 25mm in from the edges, press the nosing home, then fix mechanically about 50mm in from each end and every 400–500mm after that. Into concrete, drill 6mm, plug, and screw down with stainless steel Pozi 32mm x 4.2mm screws set flush. Into timber or steel checker plate, drill 3.85mm and screw straight through. Over open mesh grating – the case in the first photograph – drill 10mm through the nosing between the load bars and bolt through with 40mm dome head bolts, a 40mm washer and a nylock nut. Patch repair any dished concrete before you start, or the nosing will bridge the hollow instead of bedding into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I mix profiles and grades on the same order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Every combination of colour, length, profile and grade on this page is a separate stock line, so a job that needs the coarse external grade on the fire escape and the fine internal grade in the stairwell is one order, not two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill these fit over open mesh or checker plate treads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and FibreGrid publishes a fixing method for both. Over open mesh you bolt through between the load bars with dome head bolts and nylock nuts; over checker plate you drill 3.85mm and screw straight into the steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the price change with colour, profile or grade?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Price is set by length only, so a 1200mm coarse external in yellow costs the same as a 1200mm fine internal in black. That makes it straightforward to price a job before the colour is signed off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs a fire rating available?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer offers a fire retardant version as an option, but no fire classification is published for the stock profile sold here.

Every combination of colour, length, profile and grade on this page is a separate stock line, so a job that needs the coarse external grade on the fire escape and the fine internal grade in the stairwell is one order, not two.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Will these fit over open mesh or checker plate treads?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes, and FibreGrid publishes a fixing method for both. Over open mesh you bolt through between the load bars with dome head bolts and nylock nuts; over checker plate you drill 3.85mm and screw straight into the steel.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Does the price change with colour, profile or grade?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. Price is set by length only, so a 1200mm coarse external in yellow costs the same as a 1200mm fine internal in black. That makes it straightforward to price a job before the colour is signed off.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is a fire rating available?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The manufacturer offers a fire retardant version as an option, but no fire classification is published for the stock profile sold here.

It is the profile to reach for when a stair takes real traffic and a slimline section would not last — shared stairwells in flats, school and college stairs, back-of-house and service flights, and any commercial staircase getting a new floor covering. It caps and protects the step edge, stops floor coverings fraying at the nose, and gives a defined, slip-resistant tread in the same operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe body is black — the colour you choose is the insert\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSettle this before you order. The manufacturer states plainly that \"the profile is made from black PVC\", and the eleven colour options on this page refer to the anti-slip insert set into the tread channel, not to the nosing itself. Choose Cobalt Blue and you receive a black nosing carrying a blue band. That is the design working as intended: the dark carrier disappears against the step while the insert does the job of marking the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSlip resistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that the standard PVC insert achieves R11 on the inclined platform test to DIN 51130:2010, from a corrected average of six shod results at 22.9 degrees, together with a pendulum value of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet to BS 7976-2:2002. The UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, so both figures sit comfortably inside that band. The insert is a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion specified for non-scuff stair use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eContrast you can specify, not guess at\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer publishes a light reflectance value for every insert, which is what a specifier asking for a contrasting nosing actually needs: White 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1 and Black 4.5. The black carrier is itself 4.5. Set the insert LRV against the LRV of your tread finish and the difference becomes something you can demonstrate on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA rear edge that feathers in\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back of the profile tapers down to 3mm, so it runs out into the tread rather than standing proud of it. On a refurbishment, where the nosing is going down onto an existing screed, board or carpet, that taper is the difference between a clean detail and a raised back edge that becomes a trip hazard of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInternal stairs in offices, retail units, schools and colleges, hotels, healthcare and community buildings, and the communal stairs of flats and housing association blocks.

The 3.22m is the manufacturer's stock bar and gives the least waste on a wide flight or where several treads can be cut from one length; the 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m are cut from the same extrusion and suit domestic flights and small repairs. Order the length above your going and trim on site rather than butting two pieces on a single tread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen choose the insert on contrast rather than on taste. Where the nosing has to read against a pale tread, take the dark end of the range — Black, Brown, Cobalt Blue, Red or Midnight Grey. Against a dark carpet or a dark screed, White, Canvas or Ice Grey will do the work. Yellow at 55.7 is the usual pick where a hazard needs flagging in a service stair or plant room. If the stair is external or regularly wet, this insert is the wrong specification: use a Tredsafe-insert profile instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer specifies this sequence: make sure the steps are dry, clean, free of debris and level; if the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark your drilling positions; drill and plug the step; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing and set it down; screw down with appropriately sized screws; then fit the insert, or the insert pip, over the screw heads to conceal them. Fixings and adhesive are not supplied.

tread, 55mm down the face of the step, and a green band that charges from the light already in the building and keeps showing the step edge once that light goes out. Eleven insert colours, six lengths from 1.0m to 3.22m.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe rake-back geometry is the first thing to get right. The 55mm front leg slopes back under the step rather than dropping plumb, so it follows a riser that is already raked and closes onto the face without packing behind it.

It charges from daylight, fluorescent tubes or tungsten lamps: no connection to make, no transformer, no driver, nothing that fails because a circuit did. In a power cut, or when smoke takes out the lighting mid-evacuation, every step edge stays readable as a continuous green line.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert carries the slip resistance, and the numbers are published\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the glow band sits the coloured PVC insert — a wide band set into its own channel, with a plain mill aluminium plate running behind it to the back of the 67mm tread. It is a band, not a covering over the whole tread. The manufacturer describes the insert as a flexible PVC extrusion carrying a three-dimensional pyramid pattern and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention, and for it states \u003cstrong\u003eDIN 51130:2010 category R11\u003c\/strong\u003e, from an inclined platform test averaging 22.9°, and \u003cstrong\u003eBS 7976-2:2002\u003c\/strong\u003e pendulum values of \u003cstrong\u003ePTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Remember it is a band and not the full tread: the rest of the 67mm plate stays mill aluminium, which the manufacturer puts at LRV 78.9. \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e is the bar you receive, priced per bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOn colour, work from the LRV table rather than the swatch. Dark tread covering, take a light insert; light covering, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 does the work. Yellow at 55.7 is the usual choice on a designated escape route. Midnight Grey and Dolphin Grey are the discreet options and sit close to much commercial carpet, so check the difference before committing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOn length, 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m are the manufacturer's stock bars and the shorter lengths are cut from them, so the cost per metre works out much the same whichever you take. Choose on the going and on what will physically go up the stairwell rather than on price per metre — the shorter options exist for single-going stairs, and for jobs where getting a full-length bar round a half landing is the real constraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWork to the manufacturer's sequence. Steps must be dry, clean and reasonably level. Cut each bar to the going with a mitre saw and a non-ferrous blade. If the profile is pre-drilled, mark through the holes, then drill and plug. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive and screw it down — neither alone is the specified method. Fit the insert, or the pip over the screw head, last. In service, clean with a neutral detergent, rinse, and let it dry before traffic. Keep solvent cleaners off the aluminium; the manufacturer is explicit about that.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the glowing strip need an electrical supply?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is photoluminescent, not powered: it absorbs ambient light and releases it in the dark.

The nose edge carries a narrow mill aluminium lip, then the green photoluminescent strip, then the coloured PVC insert band; behind that the profile is plain mill aluminium back to the floor covering.

Stair Nosing 56x55mm with Photoluminescent Strip \u0026 PVC Insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are specifying a stair edge for a commercial stairway that has to stay readable when the lights go out, this is the profile that does both jobs at once. It is a 56mm x 55mm aluminium nosing carrying a wide slip-resistant PVC insert across the tread and, ahead of it at the very nose, a separate photoluminescent strip that charges from ordinary room light and glows in the dark. In normal use it reads as a conventional contrasting step edge in whichever of the eleven insert colours you choose. In a power failure or a smoke-filled escape route it keeps showing where each tread ends, with no wiring, no battery and no maintenance regime attached to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo safety systems in one extrusion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 56mm tread plate is deep enough to carry both bands without crowding either. The PVC insert does the everyday work: it gives you the tonal contrast against the floorcovering that makes the step edge legible to anyone with reduced vision, and it takes the foot traffic instead of the metal. The narrow photoluminescent strip sits forward of it, right on the nose, where it is the last thing a descending foot passes over and the first thing visible looking down a dark flight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow needs no electrical connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that the system \"requires no electrical connection, and needs no special maintenance beyond standard care for similar products\", and that it activates from daylight or artificial light. That matters on refurbishment work in particular, because it means you can add wayfinding to an existing escape stair without running a circuit, commissioning it, or adding anything to a maintenance schedule. The manufacturer does not publish an afterglow duration or luminance figure for this profile, so we do not quote one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA 55mm riser leg that actually covers the step face\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe riser leg drops a full 55mm and is straight-backed, not raked, so it sits against a square step face and protects the arris where nosings usually fail first. Aluminium takes the impact; the insert takes the wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it's used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEscape stairs and protected stairways in offices, schools, hospitals and student accommodation, where the glow strip earns its place. Also plant rooms, back-of-house stairs, theatres and cinemas, transport interchanges, and any refurbishment where a client wants blackout wayfinding without new cabling. It is equally at home on a general commercial stair that simply needs a hard-wearing contrasting edge, with the photoluminescence as insurance rather than the main reason for specifying it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTread width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRiser height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight (square) back\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium extrusion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle PVC insert channel, plus a photoluminescent strip at the nose\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeige, Black, Brown, Canvas, Cobalt Blue, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey, Midnight Grey, Red, White, Yellow (11)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScrew-fixed to the step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAccessibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDescribed by the manufacturer as \"Equality Act 2010 compatible\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (PTV \/ R value)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent performance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLocation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInternal stairways.

Drill and countersink at roughly 250-300mm centres, keeping a fixing near each end, and bed the nosing down onto a clean, sound, level substrate — a flexible adhesive alongside the screws helps on slightly uneven concrete. Fit the floorcovering up to the back edge so there is no lip. Cut with a fine-tooth blade and deburr the ends. In service, sweep and damp-mop as you would the surrounding floor; keeping the photoluminescent strip clean and unpainted is what keeps it charging, so avoid abrasive pads and solvent cleaners on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the glow strip need power or batteries?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The manufacturer states the system requires no electrical connection and activates from daylight or artificial light.

Stair Nosing 87x40mm Bullnose, Photoluminescent Anti-Slip","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen a stairway has to stay usable in a power cut, this profile does two jobs at once. It is a deep bullnose aluminium nosing covering 87mm of tread and wrapping 40mm down the riser, and it carries a photoluminescent strip along the very front of the nose alongside twin anti-slip PVC inserts. The glow strip charges from ordinary building lighting or daylight and keeps the step edge readable when that lighting fails, so a protected stairway stays navigable with no wiring, no batteries and no service contract. It is a commercial specification: offices, schools, hospitals, apartment blocks and any escape stair where the fire strategy asks for step-edge definition after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe nose strip keeps working when the lights do not\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states the photoluminescent element is a europium-doped strontium aluminate emitting green at a 520nm peak wavelength. The published figures are 455 mcd\/m² measured ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m². It charges from daylight, fluorescent tubes or standard tungsten lamps, and no electrical connection is involved at any point. That matters on a stair where the alternative is emergency lighting that itself depends on the failure you are planning for.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eTwin inserts carry the grip\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the glow strip sit two PVC insert bands in the colour you choose. The manufacturer states the standard insert achieves category R11 on the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test at 22.9°, and returns pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet to BS 7976-2:2002. For reference, the UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 and above as low slip potential. The insert surface is a three-dimensional pyramid pattern with a polyurethane coating to reduce dirt retention, and the manufacturer states it resists ultraviolet light, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis, and common household detergents. Organic solvents will soften it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eA section that survives trolleys and traffic\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose is a full bullnose curve rather than a square arris, so it sheds impact from wheeled traffic instead of taking it on a corner, and it presents no sharp edge to a shin. The extrusion is aluminium alloy 6063 to EN 755, chemical composition to BS EN 573-3:2003, in a 5mm gauge as supplied. The channels take the inserts as a mechanical fit, so a worn insert is replaced without lifting the profile off the step.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it's used\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eProtected escape stairs and firefighting shafts, office and campus circulation cores, hospital and care-home stairwells, hotel back-of-house stairs, student accommodation, and apartment block common stairs. It is also used on plant-room and industrial access stairs where the lighting is task-only and the stair sits unlit for most of the day. Anywhere the stair forms part of a documented evacuation route, the glow strip is the reason this profile gets specified over a plain insert nosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003ctable\u003e\r\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\r\n\u003ctbody\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eTread width\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e87mm (supplier stated; the manufacturer's section drawing is dimensioned 85mm, and the supplier states a ±5mm manufacturing tolerance)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eRiser height\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e40mm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eNose profile\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eBullnose\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 to EN 755, composition to BS EN 573-3:2003\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm — supplier stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eChannels\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eTwin PVC insert channels, plus a photoluminescent strip at the nose\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent data\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, 520nm peak, 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes, afterglow \u0026gt;3000 minutes — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (ramp)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eR11, DIN 51130:2010 at 22.9° — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (pendulum)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 66 dry \/ PTV 54 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite, Black, Brown, Beige, Canvas, Red, Yellow, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey, Midnight Grey, Cobalt Blue\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eScrew fixing; the supplier also lists adhesive and tape fixing\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eFire rating\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePick the insert colour on visual contrast, not on decor.

Stair Nosing 57x32mm Anti Slip Glow Edge, 11 Insert Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpecifying a stair nosing for a commercial stairwell means solving two problems at once: keeping the step edge safe underfoot, and keeping it findable when the lights go out. This 57mm x 32mm aluminium nosing does both without a single cable. A green photoluminescent strip runs along the leading edge, charging from the building's ordinary lighting and glowing on its own once that light is removed. Behind it sits a full-width PVC anti-slip insert in a choice of eleven colours, so the tread can be tuned for contrast against whatever floor finish the project uses. The riser leg is raked back, which suits stairs with a sloping riser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm. Their published figures put afterglow brightness at 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, with a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. Because it stores and re-emits ambient light, it recharges whenever the stairwell lighting is on and cannot fail in a power cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert does the gripping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe anti-slip insert is a flexible PVC extrusion with a three-dimensional pyramid surface and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention. The manufacturer states a DIN 51130:2010 ramp classification of R11, and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet — both well above the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The insert is stated to resist UV, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis; organic solvents will soften it. The channel is extruded from 6063 aluminium to BS EN 573-3:2003, so the nose absorbs chipping that would otherwise destroy a concrete or timber step edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis profile suits commercial and industrial stairs needing a mains-independent escape route marker: office and apartment-block stairwells, school and university circulation stairs, hotel and cinema steps, and back-of-house stairs that see little natural light. It also works on loft conversions and basement stairs, where running a lighting circuit to the steps is impractical. Because the aluminium body takes the wear, it doubles as edge protection on refurbished treads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaked-back stair nosing, 57mm tread x 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 to BS EN 573-3:2003, temper T5\/T6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill aluminium, LRV 78.9 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-slip insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlexible PVC, three-dimensional pyramid surface, polyurethane coated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (ramp)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 at 22.9° corrected, DIN 51130:2010 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (pendulum)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 66 dry, PTV 54 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, green, 520nm peak wavelength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAfterglow\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes; highly visible \u0026gt;600 minutes; \u0026gt;3,000 minutes to 0.32 mcd\/m² — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStrip flammability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUL94 HB — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours and LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive bedding plus mechanical screw fixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnodising and bespoke lengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAvailable to order\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExternal use rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two decisions to make: length and insert colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m options are the manufacturer's stock extrusion lengths. The 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m options are cut from the same profile and are usually the sensible choice for a domestic or single-flight stair. Measure the full width of the tread, order the next length up, and cut back on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsert colour is where the safety decision sits. Contrast guidance is normally expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the surrounding floor, and the manufacturer publishes an LRV for every insert — all eleven are in the table above. Against a dark floor, White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 give the widest separation; against a pale floor, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 do the same in reverse. Work out the difference against your own floor finish rather than choosing on appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's method is adhesive bedding plus mechanical fixing. Check the step is dry, clean, level and free of debris. Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing, set it onto the step, then screw down and fit the insert or insert pip to cover the screw heads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the insert with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water, drying it before foot traffic returns. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. Do not use solvent cleaners on either part — the manufacturer advises against them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the glowing edge need wiring or a power supply?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is a photoluminescent strip, not an LED. It absorbs energy from the building's normal lighting — daylight, fluorescent or tungsten — and re-emits it as green light once that source is removed. Nothing to connect, no driver or battery to replace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the glow last after the lights go out?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer quotes 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and measurable output beyond 3,000 minutes.

Stair Nosing 56x32mm Photoluminescent, Anti-Slip PVC Insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are re-edging a commercial stair — an office refit, a stairwell in a block of flats, an auditorium gangway — this profile does two jobs at once. It is a slimline aluminium stair nosing measuring 56mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, and that 56mm includes a 13mm photoluminescent strip along the front edge, with a slip-resistant PVC insert filling the tread behind it. In daylight or normal artificial light the strip reads as a pale green band; when the lights go out it glows, marking the edge of every step without any wiring, battery or power supply. Eleven insert colours are available and the glow strip is fitted to all of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip needs no power\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photoluminescent strip is a europium-doped strontium aluminate compound that charges from ordinary ambient light. The manufacturer states that it activates under normal illumination — daylight, fluorescent tube or tungsten filament alike — and publishes an afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² measured ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes, and a total afterglow duration in excess of 3,000 minutes before decaying to 0.32 mcd\/m². The emission is green, with a peak wavelength of 520nm — the part of the spectrum the dark-adapted eye is most sensitive to. Its stated purpose is to help people identify stair edges and risers during a local or emergency power failure, when a stairwell is at its most dangerous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no LED, no lighting channel and nothing to connect. That is the point of it: no electrician, no cable route, no maintenance regime, and nothing that stops working in the power cut it exists for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strip is not merely a marker. The manufacturer describes it as carrying a three-dimensional pyramid pattern under a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention, and quotes its slip resistance as R11 to DIN 51130:2010 at a 24.7 degree ramp angle, with pendulum values of PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet. It is also stated to resist ultraviolet light, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis and common household chemicals. Organic solvents will soften it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert covers the rest of the tread\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes the standard PVC insert as a REACH compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade designed specifically for non-scuff stair nosing applications, and states that it achieves category R11 under the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test at a measured ramp angle of 22.9 degrees, with pendulum values under BS 7976-2:2002 of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, so both figures sit clear of that threshold — as it happens, higher than the glow strip's own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe aluminium carries the load\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carrier is extruded aluminium alloy AA 6063 in a T5 temper, produced to DIN EN 755 with a chemical composition in accordance with BS EN 573-3:2003. The section is a straight, square-edged L rather than a bullnose, so it sits flat on the going and returns a full 32mm down the riser face. Mill finish is standard. The manufacturer also offers Bright Brass and Bright Black anodised finishes, bespoke powder coating in over 350 colours, made-to-measure lengths and factory drilling — all on request, and none of them stocked, so talk to us first if you need one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e13mm photoluminescent front strip — charges from ambient light, no wiring or battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlip-resistant PVC insert in eleven colours, glow strip fitted to every one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsert R11 to DIN 51130:2010, PTV 66 dry \/ 54 wet — manufacturer stated.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtruded aluminium carrier, 56mm tread x 32mm riser, straight square edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSix lengths, screw and adhesive fixing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a slimline, single-channel profile, which places it in the manufacturer's standard-duty band rather than its heavy-duty one.

Where the profile is pre-drilled, use the existing holes to mark the drilling positions, then drill and plug the steps. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing, press it onto the step and fix it with screws of the appropriate size. If the insert is supplied separately, fit it over the screw heads afterwards, or use an insert pip to cover them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maintenance the manufacturer advises cleaning inserts with a neutral detergent, rinsing thoroughly with clean water and making sure they are dry before foot traffic returns. The pyramid surface of the glow strip holds dirt more readily than smooth flooring, so a bristle brush with warm soapy water — or a scrubber-drier — is the recommended method for heavier soiling. The aluminium channel can be polished with steel wool or a cloth to maintain its appearance; under no circumstances should solvent cleaners be used on it. Keep the glow strip clear of paint, carpet overlap and permanent shading — it can only charge from light that reaches it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it need wiring or a power supply?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The strip is photoluminescent, not electrical.

Stair Nosing 60x32mm Heavy Duty Anti Slip Glow Edge, 11 Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are specifying a stair core that has to stay usable when the lights go out, this is the profile that does it without a cable. It is a heavy-duty PVC stair nosing measuring 60mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, with a 13mm photoluminescent strip running along the front edge and a contrasting anti-slip PVC insert set behind it. In daylight it works as a plain hard-wearing step edge. In a power cut the front strip keeps glowing green for hours on nothing but the light it absorbed earlier in the day. Eleven insert colours let you set the contrast against the floor covering you already have, and four lengths from 1.0m to 3.22m cover most stair widths without a joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip charges off the lights you already have\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe luminous strip is a europium-doped strontium aluminate compound with a peak wavelength of 520nm, which is the green most human eyes pick up fastest in low light. The manufacturer states the system requires no electrical connection and no special maintenance, and that ordinary room lighting — daylight, fluorescent tube or standard tungsten filament — is all that is needed to activate it. Published performance is an afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² measured ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes. That is the difference between an escape stair you can descend in an outage and one you cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSlip resistance that is tested rather than assumed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard insert is a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed specifically for non-scuff stair nosing use. For it the manufacturer publishes inclined platform testing to DIN 51130:2010 at 22.9°, category R11, and pendulum testing to BS 7976-2:2002 giving an average PTV of 66 dry and 54 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group treats any PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, and international testing houses read R11 the same way, so both the dry and the wet figure sit clear of the threshold rather than scraping it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA PVC body, not a metal one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe profile itself is extruded in black PVC rather than aluminium. That makes it quieter underfoot, easier to cut on site with ordinary tools, and immune to the corrosion you get where aluminium meets cleaning salts. The rear of the profile tapers down to 3mm so it feathers into the tread rather than standing proud as a trip hazard of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis profile is specified for internal stairs in buildings that have to be evacuated safely: school and college stair cores, hospital and care-home corridors, office and shared-residential stairwells, cinemas and theatres where the lighting is deliberately low, and retail and hospitality back-of-house stairs. It suits carpet, LVT, laminate and tile finishes. It is most often chosen where a mains-powered lit nosing has been priced and then rejected on cost, cable routing or maintenance grounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60mm tread × 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLuminous strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13mm wide, along the front edge, included within the 60mm tread\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded black PVC (hard nose).

The manufacturer publishes an LRV for every insert in this range — White 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5. Visual contrast at a step edge is a comparison between the nosing and the surfaces around it, so the number that matters is the gap between the insert LRV and the LRV of your tread covering. A pale insert on dark carpet or a dark insert on light vinyl both work; a mid-grey insert on mid-grey carpet does not, whatever the datasheet says about either one on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn length, the 3.22m rung is the manufacturer's stock extrusion and is the cheapest way to buy per metre, so on a wide stair it is usually better value to take a 3.22m length and cut it than to buy two shorter ones. Measure the finished width of the tread rather than the width between strings, and let the nosing run the full width so there is no exposed cut end at either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's sequence is: make sure the steps are dry, clean, level, even and free of debris; if the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions on the step; drill and plug; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing and set it onto the step; screw down with appropriately sized screws; then fit the insert, or the pip, to cover the screw head. Both the adhesive bed and the screws are needed — the adhesive stops the profile drumming, the screws hold it through impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor cleaning, the manufacturer specifies a neutral detergent, a thorough rinse with clean water, and drying the inserts before they take foot traffic again. No polish and no solvent cleaner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this stair nosing need wiring or an LED driver?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. There is no lighting channel and no electrical connection of any kind. The green strip along the front edge is photoluminescent: it absorbs ordinary room light during the day and re-emits it once the lights go out.

Stair Nosing 91x32mm Double Insert Anti Slip Glow Edge","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn a wide tread, a single 38mm strip of grip near the front does not cover where people actually put their feet. This 91mm x 32mm profile carries two anti-slip inserts instead of one, spread across the tread so the grip continues back from the nose rather than stopping an inch behind it. It is a heavy duty 5mm gauge section for contract carpet, and like the rest of this range it carries a green photoluminescent strip on the leading edge that charges from the building's lighting and glows on its own once that light is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo channels, not one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extra insert is the reason to choose this profile over a narrower one. A 91mm tread plate gives room for two runs of anti-slip PVC — the manufacturer's twin-channel arrangement takes two 38mm x 3.4mm standard inserts side by side, split by a slim bare-metal rib. That suits a deep step edge, a stair that takes heavy two-way traffic, or a specification where the grip needs to extend under the whole footfall rather than just the nose. It also doubles the colour area, so the step edge reads more strongly from above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes, and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m². It recharges whenever the stair is lit and cannot fail in a power cut. For the inserts themselves the manufacturer states a DIN 51130:2010 ramp classification of R11 at 22.9° corrected, and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet — both well clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The channel is extruded from 6063 aluminium to BS EN 573-3:2003.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWide commercial flights where the tread is deep and the traffic is heavy: transport interchanges, shopping centres, large office atria, hospital and university circulation stairs, and stadium or venue steps. The 5mm gauge takes heavy duty contract carpet, and the wide plate protects a generous slice of the step edge from chipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an internal specification. The manufacturer's own selection guide marks the standard PVC insert used in this twin-channel profile as not suitable for external use; only its Tredsafe insert carries an external rating. For covered or exposed outdoor steps, ask us for the Tredsafe version rather than fitting this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight-edge stair nosing, 91mm tread x 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouble — two PVC inserts across the tread\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert section\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwo standard PVC inserts, 38mm x 3.4mm — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm — suits heavy duty carpet and similar coverings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 to BS EN 573-3:2003, temper T5\/T6, to DIN EN 755\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill aluminium, LRV 78.9 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (ramp)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 at 22.9° corrected, DIN 51130:2010 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (pendulum)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 66 dry, PTV 54 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, green, 520nm; 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes, highly visible \u0026gt;600 minutes, total afterglow \u0026gt;3,000 minutes; UL94 HB — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours and LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive, screw or tape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for external use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo — the manufacturer rates the standard PVC insert for internal use only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDDA classification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot claimed for this profile.

Stair Nosing 60x55mm Deep Riser Anti Slip Glow Edge","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 55mm riser leg is what sets this profile apart. Most stair nosings cover 30mm or so of the step face; this one drops 55mm, which covers and protects the whole visible riser on a shallow step and gives a much larger block of colour facing anyone coming up the flight. That matters on an accessibility brief, where the step edge has to be obvious from below as well as above. The tread plate is 60mm on a heavy duty 5mm gauge, and a green photoluminescent strip runs along the leading edge, charging from the building's lighting and glowing on its own when that light goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSeen from below, not just above\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA person climbing a stair sees risers, not treads. A 55mm leg presents a deep, continuous band of the insert colour to that view, so the flight reads as a series of clearly marked edges rather than a blur. The manufacturer lists this profile as DDA Compliant, and the supplier describes it as Equality Act 2010 compatible — both are their statements, carried here as published. Whether an installation satisfies those requirements still depends on the contrast achieved against your own floor and riser finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation and a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. It recharges whenever the stair is lit and cannot fail in a power cut. For the insert, the manufacturer states a DIN 51130:2010 classification of R11 at 22.9° corrected and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet — both well clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential.

Contrast is expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the surfaces around it, and the manufacturer publishes an LRV for every insert — all eleven are in the table above. Against a dark floor, White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 give the widest separation; against a pale floor, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 do the same in reverse. With a 55mm leg you should check the figure against the riser finish as well as the tread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the step is dry, clean, level and free of debris. Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, set it onto the step, then screw down and fit the insert or insert pip over the screw heads. Check the deep leg sits flat to the riser before fixing — on an uneven or patched riser face you may need to make good first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the insert with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water, drying before traffic returns.

Stair Nosing 67x55mm Photoluminescent Square Edge, DDA Compliant","description":"\u003cp\u003eA square-fronted aluminium stair nosing with a photoluminescent strip at the step edge: 67mm across the tread, 55mm down the face, and a green band that charges off the light already in the building and keeps showing where the step ends when that light goes. The 55mm front leg drops plumb, so it sits flat against a vertical riser without packing or scribing. Eleven insert colours, six lengths from 1.0m to 3.22m, and one extrusion doing three jobs at once — edge protection, slip resistance, and a visible line in the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you are actually buying\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA glow strip with nothing to fail\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe green band sitting immediately behind the nose edge is photoluminescent, not electrical. The manufacturer identifies the compound as europium-doped strontium aluminate at a peak wavelength of 520nm, and states an afterglow brightness of \u003cstrong\u003e455 mcd\/m²\u003c\/strong\u003e ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow lasting \u003cstrong\u003eover 600 minutes\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a total afterglow duration of \u003cstrong\u003eover 3000 minutes\u003c\/strong\u003e before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m². Flammability is given as UL94 HB. Daylight charges it; so does a fluorescent tube or a tungsten lamp. There is no cable to pull, no driver to specify and no circuit that can take the strip out with it — which is the whole point on a stair that has to be descended during a power failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSlip resistance carried by the insert, with figures behind it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the glow strip runs the coloured PVC insert, seated in its own channel; behind that the tread plate is plain mill aluminium out to a feathered back edge that the floor covering butts against. The manufacturer describes the insert as a flexible PVC extrusion with a three-dimensional pyramid surface and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention, and states \u003cstrong\u003eDIN 51130:2010 category R11\u003c\/strong\u003e from an inclined platform average of 22.9°, with \u003cstrong\u003eBS 7976-2:2002\u003c\/strong\u003e pendulum values of \u003cstrong\u003ePTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet\u003c\/strong\u003e.

The table below carries the lot, so the colour you pick can be justified rather than eyeballed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInterior commercial and public stairs with a conventional vertical riser: office cores, school and college stairwells, hospital and care corridors, hotels, theatres and auditoria, car park stairs, and back-of-house flights where emergency lighting is thin or absent. The manufacturer lists the profile for carpet, laminate, LVT and tile finishes in commercial and industrial interiors, and designates it DDA compliant.

Dolphin Grey and Midnight Grey are the discreet options and sit close to a lot of commercial carpet, so hold them against the actual floor before committing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e is the bar you receive. The three long lengths are the manufacturer's stock bars and the shorter ones are cut from them, so cost per metre works out much the same across the range. Choose on the going of the stair, and on what will physically get round the half landing, rather than on price per metre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow the manufacturer's sequence. The step must be clean, dry and reasonably true — fill any hollow at the nose first, because an aluminium extrusion bridges a dip rather than following it. Cut each bar to the going with a mitre saw and a non-ferrous blade. Mark through the pre-drilled holes, drill and plug the step, bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, then screw it down: adhesive alone is not the specified fixing on a stair edge. Fit the insert last, or the pip over each screw head. In service, clean with a neutral detergent, rinse, and let it dry before traffic returns. Keep solvent-based cleaners off it — the manufacturer is explicit that organic solvents soften the PVC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this the square-front or the rake-back version?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSquare front. The 55mm leg drops vertically, so it suits a plumb riser. The rake-back build of the same 67x55mm profile, for risers that slope back under the tread, is listed separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the glowing strip need wiring or a power supply?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is photoluminescent: it absorbs ambient light and re-emits it in the dark. No cable, no transformer, no electrician, and nothing in it that a power cut can switch off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does it stay visible after the lights fail?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and a total duration of more than 3000 minutes before brightness falls to 0.32 mcd\/m², measured ten minutes after excitation. It is at its brightest in the first minutes, which is when a stair is being evacuated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much of the 67mm tread is coloured insert?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder half. The nose carries a narrow mill aluminium lip, then the green strip, then the coloured PVC band; behind that the profile is plain mill aluminium back to the floor covering. If you are running a contrast calculation, treat the insert band and the aluminium plate as two surfaces with two different LRVs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich insert colour gives the best visual contrast?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhichever sits furthest in LRV from your tread covering. The published values run from Black at 4.5 to White at 79.9, and the mill channel is 78.9. Pick on the number rather than the colour name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it on external steps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis build is listed by the manufacturer for commercial and industrial interiors. There is an external-grade insert made for the same family — ask us and we will quote that version rather than sell you this one for a weather-exposed flight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePick the insert colour and the bar length; the price shown is the price for that bar, with nothing added at checkout except delivery. UK mainland delivery is one flat rate however many bars you order, so a full flight ships for the same as a single step.

Stair Nosing 70x40mm Bullnose with Photoluminescent Strip","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA step edge that stays visible when the lights go out\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the nosing you fit when a stairway has to stay legible in a power cut. It is a heavy duty aluminium profile with a 70mm tread and a 40mm bullnose front, and the leading 13mm of that tread is a photoluminescent strip that charges under ordinary room lighting and keeps glowing once the lighting fails. Behind it sits a wide coloured PVC insert doing the everyday work: grip underfoot, and a tonal difference against the tread. Specifiers use it in stair cores forming part of an escape route; facilities teams use it when a refurbishment has to improve slip resistance and emergency wayfinding at once, without running a cable to every step.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is a material, not a battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe pale green band at the nose is a europium-doped strontium aluminate compound moulded into a textured anti-slip strip. It charges from whatever light the stairway already has, and needs no wiring, no driver and no maintenance beyond cleaning. The manufacturer states afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² measured ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and more than 3,000 minutes before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m². That is the case for it over a powered nosing: there is nothing to fail at the moment you need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert does the day-to-day work\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe wider insert behind the strip is a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion with a three-dimensional pyramid surface. The manufacturer states R11 under the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test, and pendulum values under BS 7976-2:2002 of 66 dry and 54 wet, both inside the low slip potential band the UK Slip Resistance Group puts at 36 and above. A polyurethane coating reduces dirt retention. The insert is stated to resist UV, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis and common detergents; organic solvents will soften it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eA carrier sized for heavy traffic\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe channel is extruded from 6063 aluminium alloy in a 5mm gauge. That gauge is what lets the profile sit down over heavy duty carpet or a similar floor covering rather than perch on top of it.

The manufacturer publishes a light reflectance value for every insert, and the mill aluminium channel sits at 78.9. Pairing that channel with a dark insert gives the widest tonal separation: Black at 4.5, Brown at 9.1, Cobalt Blue at 9.2, Red at 10.6, Midnight Grey at 12.8. White at 79.9 sits almost on the channel value and will read as one pale band.

The steps must be dry, clean, free of debris, level and even. Where the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions, then drill and plug the step. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside, set the nosing down and screw it down with the appropriate size screws; the insert, or an insert pip, then covers the screw head. Clean the inserts with a neutral detergent, rinse with clean water and let them dry before the stair takes traffic. The aluminium can be polished with steel wool or a cloth, but solvent cleaners should never be used on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the glow strip stay visible after the lights go off?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and more than 3,000 minutes before the strip decays to 0.32 mcd\/m².

profile to look at. It is an aluminium bullnose nosing with two things running along the tread: a slip-resistant PVC insert, and ahead of it a photoluminescent strip that charges from ordinary room light and glows once the room goes dark. There is no wiring, no driver and no battery, so it keeps working in exactly the situation a mains-powered fitting does not. Specifiers use it on escape routes in offices, hotels, cinemas and student accommodation, where the stair has to be legible during a power failure but a wired lighting run is impractical or too expensive to maintain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is a fixed part of the profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photoluminescent band sits at the front of the tread, ahead of the coloured insert, and it is extruded into every colour option — it is not an insert choice you can accidentally leave off. The manufacturer specifies a europium-doped strontium aluminate pigment emitting at 520nm, measured at 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after the light source is removed, with high-visibility afterglow stated beyond 600 minutes and total glow beyond 3000 minutes. It charges from daylight, fluorescent or filament lighting, so normal room lighting during the working day is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSlip resistance is tested, and published per element\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states R11 for the standard PVC insert under DIN 51130:2010, measured on a 22.9° ramp, and a BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum value of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet. For the glow strip itself the manufacturer refers slip performance to its textured insert figures: R11 at 24.7°, PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet. Both elements are therefore rated across the wet and dry range a stair sees, rather than the tread relying on bare aluminium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA bullnose front and a feathered back edge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose is a deep rounded bullnose that wraps the step arris and carries down a 40mm riser leg. The back of the 69mm tread plate tapers away to a thin feather edge, so it beds down onto the covering instead of standing proud as a trip lip. Between them sits a single insert channel — one continuous band of colour, not a double-channel commercial section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffice and hotel stair cores, cinema and theatre steps, lecture theatres, student accommodation, apartment communal stairs, and any internal escape route where the stair must stay readable in an unlit evacuation. It is a slimline single-channel section, so treat it as standard duty. The manufacturer's own selection guidance is that heavy-traffic stairs — railway stations, supermarkets, department stores, schools and hospitals — should use a heavier gauge with double channels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTread width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e69mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRiser height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNose profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBullnose front, tapered (ramped) back edge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle insert channel, plus a photoluminescent strip at the front of the tread\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarrier material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium alloy 6063 T5\/T6 extruded to DIN EN 755, composition to BS EN 573-3:2003\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill aluminium as standard; anodising to DIN 17611 available on request\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlexible PVC, 2mm section, REACH compliant, non-scuff\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance — insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 (DIN 51130:2010, 22.9°); PTV 66 dry \/ 54 wet (BS 7976-2:2002) — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance — glow strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 (DIN 51130:2010, 24.7°); PTV 57 dry \/ 47 wet — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent element\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, 520nm, 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes; afterglow stated \u0026gt;600 minutes high visibility, \u0026gt;3000 minutes total — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOur supplier's data table states 5mm; the manufacturer's datasheet describes this slimline profile as a 3mm gauge.

BS 8300 and Approved Document M ask for a visually contrasting step edge, and contrast is judged on light reflectance value rather than on hue. The manufacturer publishes an LRV for every insert colour: White 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5. The mill aluminium carrier reads 78.9. Take the LRV of your tread covering and pick an insert far enough away from it — pale coverings want Black, Brown or Midnight Grey; dark coverings want White, Yellow or Canvas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn length, 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m are the stock extrusions. The 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m options are cut down from stock, so they are non-returnable unless faulty — measure before you order. Buying a stock length and cutting on site usually works out cheaper per step than ordering short lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe substrate must be clean, dry and level; a nosing bedded over a hollow or a dusty arris will drum underfoot. Fit mechanically with countersunk screws into plugs appropriate to the substrate, or bond with a solvent-free construction adhesive, and set the profile so the feathered back edge sits down onto the covering. Cut with a fine-tooth blade and de-burr the ends. Clean with a neutral detergent and a bristle brush. Do not use solvents, abrasive pads or steel wool on the insert or the glow strip — abrading the photoluminescent band reduces how brightly it charges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this need wiring or an LED strip?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. There is no lighting channel and no electrical component of any kind. The strip is photoluminescent: it absorbs ordinary daylight or artificial light during the day and re-emits it as a green glow in darkness. Nothing to power, nothing to fail, and no maintenance beyond keeping it clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the glow actually last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after charging, with high-visibility afterglow beyond 600 minutes and total glow beyond 3000 minutes. In practice a stairwell lit during occupied hours will be fully charged, and the strip stays clearly visible for far longer than a typical evacuation takes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this on external steps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — this build carries the standard interior PVC insert, and the manufacturer does not rate that insert for external use. For outdoor steps you need the version of this same 69 x 40mm profile fitted with the exterior-grade textured insert, which the manufacturer does rate for external environments.

Stair Nosing 72x55mm Wide Tread Anti Slip Glow Edge","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the largest profile in the standard range: 72mm across the tread and 55mm down the riser. That combination is specified where a step edge has to be unmistakable from both directions — a wide band of colour underfoot for anyone descending, and a deep band on the riser face for anyone climbing. It is built on a heavy duty 5mm gauge for contract carpet, and a green photoluminescent strip runs the leading edge, charging from the building's own lighting and glowing on its own once that light is gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBig enough to be unambiguous\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrast works on area as well as tone. A narrow strip of bright colour on a busy patterned carpet can disappear; 72mm of it does not. Pair that with a 55mm riser leg and the step edge is defined on both planes, which is the arrangement accessibility guidance is really asking for. The manufacturer lists this profile as DDA Compliant and the supplier describes it as Equality Act 2010 compatible — both are their statements, carried here as published. Whether an installation satisfies the requirement still depends on the contrast achieved against your own finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes and measurable afterglow continuing beyond 3,000 minutes. It recharges whenever the stair is lit and cannot fail in a power cut. For the insert, they state a DIN 51130:2010 classification of R11 at 22.9° corrected and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet, both well clear of the 36 PTV low-slip-potential mark, and describe the standard insert as a REACH compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade made specifically for non-scuff stair nosing applications.

All six lengths are cut from the same extrusion and priced at a flat rate per metre, so there is nothing to be saved by buying a long bar and cutting it down — order the length closest to what you need. Measure the full tread width, take the next length up and trim back on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen colour, which is what carries the contrast argument. The manufacturer publishes a Light Reflectance Value for all eleven inserts — they are in the table above. Against a dark floor, White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 give the widest separation; against a pale floor, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 do the same in reverse. Because this profile shows on both the tread and the riser, check the figure against both finishes rather than just the one underfoot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the step is dry, clean, level and free of debris. Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, set it onto the step, then screw down and fit the insert or insert pip over the screw heads. A 72mm plate wants fixings at closer centres than a narrow profile, and the 55mm leg should sit flat to the riser before you fix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the insert with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water, drying before traffic returns. The aluminium can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. Do not use solvent cleaners on either part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this take an LED strip?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. There is no lighting channel and no electrical component.

Stair Nosing 68x33mm Silicon Carbide Ramped Anti Slip","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost stair nosings grip with a PVC insert. This one does not. The 68mm x 33mm profile takes a silicone carbide insert instead — the same abrasive grit surface used on industrial stair treads and GRP decking — which makes it the choice where boots, grit, trolley wheels and wet weather would polish a softer insert smooth. The carrier is heavy duty 5mm gauge aluminium, anodised matt silver, ramped so it tapers down onto the floor covering rather than presenting a lip, and it carries the Aluminator green photoluminescent strip along the leading edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCarbide grit, not vinyl\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilicone carbide is a hard abrasive bonded to the insert face. It gives a coarse, aggressive texture that keeps working when it is wet or dirty, and it resists the burnishing that eventually flattens a smooth PVC surface on a very heavily used stair. The manufacturer describes it as an external grade insert offering outstanding slip resistance and durability, but publishes no pendulum or R value for it — see the specification table below. The trade-off is comfort and cleaning: it is not a surface for bare feet, and the texture holds more dirt than a smooth insert, so it wants brushing rather than wiping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the Aluminator version of the profile. The manufacturer states that the system illuminates steps if a local or emergency power failure occurs on a stairway, allowing an evacuee to orientate themselves and locate the stair edges and risers, and that it needs no electrical connection at all — only normal illumination, daylight, fluorescent or tungsten light to charge it. The photoluminescent element is europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation and a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. Light fastness, chemical stability and UV stability are all rated excellent, and flammability is UL94 HB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe carrier\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtruded from 6063 aluminium to BS EN 573-3:2003 and anodised matt silver to DIN 17611, which the manufacturer specifies to prevent oxidisation and protect the life of the installation. The 5mm gauge is what allows the profile to fix over heavy duty carpet or a similarly thick covering rather than sitting proud of it. The manufacturer also states that the profile is designed to meet the guidelines in BS 8300:2009+A1:2010; that is the manufacturer's statement about the design, and it is not the separate \"DDA Compliant\" label they apply to certain other profiles in this range, which this one does not carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndustrial and back-of-house stairs, plant rooms, workshops and loading areas, service stairs in kitchens and plant spaces, and any flight where the traffic is booted and the floor gets dirty or wet. The manufacturer specifies the carbide insert as external grade, so entrance steps and covered external flights are within its range as well as internal ones. The ramped profile suits a stair where a raised lip would be a trip hazard or would catch a trolley wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRamped stair nosing, straight back, 68mm tread x 33mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle external grade silicone carbide insert — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm — suits heavy duty carpet and similar coverings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 to BS EN 573-3:2003\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnodised matt silver to DIN 17611 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, green, 520nm; 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes, highly visible \u0026gt;600 minutes; UL94 HB — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo pendulum or R value is published for the silicon carbide insert.

There is no electrical connection, no driver and no battery, so nothing about it depends on the supply that has just failed. The published figures are 455 mcd\/m² measured ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes, and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m².\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe raked leg is the point\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOn a stair with a sloping riser, a square-legged nosing can only touch the step at its top edge.

The UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, so both figures sit well clear of it.

Where the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions on the step, then drill and plug. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing, bed it down so the raked leg sits flat against the riser face, and screw down with the appropriate size screws. Fit the insert over the screw heads, or use insert pip to cover them. Clean the insert with a neutral detergent, rinse with clean water and let it dry before foot traffic returns.

Stair Nosing 65x36mm Slimline Anti Slip Glow Edge, 11 Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 65mm x 36mm slimline step edge with an extruded PVC body rather than an aluminium one. That makes it lighter to handle, quieter and warmer underfoot, and easier to cut on site — useful on a domestic stair or a refurbishment where you are working room by room. It carries a coloured PVC anti-slip insert in a single channel, and a green photoluminescent strip along the leading edge that charges from the building's ordinary lighting and glows on its own once that light is removed. There is no wiring, no driver and no LED in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation and a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. Because it stores and re-emits ambient light, it recharges every time the stair is lit and cannot fail in a power cut. The supplier puts it plainly: it illuminates the step during power failures, with no electrical connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert does the gripping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe anti-slip insert is a flexible PVC extrusion with a three-dimensional pyramid surface and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention. The manufacturer states a DIN 51130:2010 ramp classification of R11 at 22.9° corrected, and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet — both well clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The insert resists UV, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis; organic solvents will soften it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePVC body, and what that means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA PVC profile will not dent the way soft aluminium can and it will not corrode, but it is less rigid than metal and less suited to very heavy commercial traffic or to a stair where trolleys and cages cross the nosing all day. For those, choose one of our aluminium-bodied profiles. For domestic stairs, offices, shops and lighter commercial work, the PVC body does the job at a lower weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomestic stairs and loft conversions, offices, shops, community buildings and rented housing — anywhere wanting a defined, grippy, power-independent step edge without the weight or cost of a metal profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBullnose (rounded front) slimline stair nosing, 65mm tread x 36mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded PVC — supplier stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle PVC anti-slip insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (ramp)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 at 22.9° corrected, DIN 51130:2010 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (pendulum)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 66 dry, PTV 54 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, green, 520nm; 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes, highly visible \u0026gt;600 minutes; UL94 HB — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours and LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive, screw or tape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDDA classification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExternal use rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this insert.

Contrast guidance is expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the floor around it, and the manufacturer publishes an LRV for every one of the eleven inserts — they are in the table above. Against a dark floor, White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 open the widest gap; against a pale floor, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 do the same in reverse.

Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, set it onto the step, then screw down and fit the insert or insert pip over the screw heads. Do not over-tighten — a PVC body will dimple around a countersink if you drive the screws too hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water, drying before traffic returns.

Stair Nosing 91x32mm Heavy Duty Double Anti Slip Insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn a busy commercial stair — an office core, a school corridor, a hospital stairwell — the leading edge takes the punishment, and the leading edge is what people look at when they judge whether the flight is safe. This 91 x 32mm aluminium stair nosing answers both. Two full-length anti-slip PVC insert bands run side by side across a 91mm tread plate, separated by a narrow bare aluminium rib, and the front face drops just 32mm onto the riser in a raked-back angle rather than a deep square lip. It is a heavy duty commercial profile in 6063 aluminium at a 5mm gauge, made to sit under contract carpet or a resilient floor covering rather than perch on top of it. Eleven insert colours and six lengths let you put contrast where the specification asks for it and blend in where it does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo insert bands rather than one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 91mm tread plate is wide, and filling it with a single band of PVC gives you one large flexing surface and one long adhesive line. This profile splits the tread into two separate inserts divided by a bare mill aluminium rib. Each band is narrower across its width, so it is better supported, and the rib gives the extrusion a stiffening line down its length. Visually the twin bands also read as a wider block of colour from the top of a flight than a single strip of the same total area, which is the angle from which a descending user actually sees the step edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA 5mm gauge, not a 5mm floor finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gauge figure quoted for this range is the thickness of the aluminium itself. The manufacturer describes the 5mm gauge as allowing for fixing with heavy duty carpets or similar floor coverings — it is what lets the back leg be dressed into a contract carpet, laminate, LVT or tile finish without the nosing standing proud enough to catch a toe. It is a specification of the metal, not a limit on what you can lay against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGrip figures the manufacturer publishes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer publishes test data for the standard PVC insert used across this range. The manufacturer states category \u003cstrong\u003eR11\u003c\/strong\u003e on the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test (22.9° corrected, average of six shod results) and, on the BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum test, an average PTV of \u003cstrong\u003e66 dry\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e54 wet\u003c\/strong\u003e. The UK Slip Resistance Group guidance quoted alongside those figures treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential. The insert is described by the manufacturer as a REACH compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed for non-scuff stair nosing use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffice stair cores and shared circulation routes, schools, colleges and university buildings, healthcare and community premises, retail and leisure, and the common stairs of apartment blocks and hotels. It suits refurbishment as readily as new build: where treads are chipped or worn, the profile gives you a fresh, square, hard-wearing edge without rebuilding the step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e91mm tread x 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge shape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRakeback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouble PVC insert — two separate insert bands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 temper T5 to DIN EN 755; composition to BS EN 573-3:2003 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard flexible PVC, smooth finish, REACH compliant grade — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 to DIN 51130:2010 (22.9° corrected); PTV 66 dry \/ 54 wet to BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated for the standard PVC insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite 79.9 · Yellow 55.7 · Canvas 53.2 · Ice Grey 42.1 · Beige 41.1 · Dolphin Grey 27.6 · Midnight Grey 12.8 · Red 10.6 · Cobalt Blue 9.2 · Brown 9.1 · Black 4.5 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill aluminium 78.9 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1m, 1.5m and 2m cut from stock; 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m manufacturer stock lengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive and\/or mechanical fixings, by the installer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT and tile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLocation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInternal.

Where the specification asks for visual contrast between the step edge and the tread finish, work from the light reflectance values in the table above and pick an insert that sits well away from the LRV of your floor covering: White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 against a dark floor; Black at 4.5, Brown at 9.1 or Cobalt Blue at 9.2 against a pale one. Where the nosing is there for wear rather than wayfinding, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey and Canvas disappear into most commercial schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the length. The manufacturer's stock lengths are 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m; our 1m, 1.5m and 2m options are cut from those. Order a length that covers the full width of the tread in one piece wherever you can — a butt joint mid-tread is the first place a nosing starts to lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the steps are outside, or exposed to weather and standing water, this is not the profile. The manufacturer makes a separate Tredsafe insert range for external and wet use, and we list the 91 x 32mm version of it separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's method is straightforward. Make sure the steps are dry, clean, free of debris, level and even. If the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions, then drill and plug the step. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing, set it down onto the step, and screw down with appropriately sized screws. Fit the insert, or the insert pip over the screw head, last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maintenance, the manufacturer specifies cleaning the inserts with a neutral detergent, rinsing thoroughly with clean water and letting them dry before foot traffic returns. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. Solvent cleaners should not be used on the aluminium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many insert bands does this profile have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo. The 91mm tread plate carries two separate anti-slip PVC insert bands side by side, divided by a narrow strip of bare mill aluminium, with a thin aluminium margin along the front and back edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this nosing outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe do not recommend it. The manufacturer does not publish an external or wet-area rating for the standard PVC insert fitted to this profile. For external steps the manufacturer produces a separate Tredsafe insert range, and we list a 91 x 32mm Tredsafe version for that use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the 5mm gauge refer to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thickness of the aluminium extrusion, not the thickness of a floor covering. The manufacturer describes the 5mm gauge as allowing for fixing with heavy duty carpets or similar floor coverings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be cut to a non-standard length?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The profile is supplied here in fixed lengths, and aluminium cuts cleanly on site with a fine-tooth blade — deburr the cut end before fixing. The manufacturer will also anodise and cut to length to order; contact us if you need that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich insert colour should I specify for contrast?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the light reflectance values listed in the specification table and choose an insert whose LRV is well separated from the tread finish. White (79.9) and Yellow (55.7) read strongly against dark floors; Black (4.5), Brown (9.1) and Cobalt Blue (9.2) read strongly against pale ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose your insert colour and length above; every combination of the eleven colours and six lengths is priced individually. Orders are dispatched on a UK-wide courier service. If you need a quantity we do not show, a colour outside the eleven listed, or a made-to-measure length, contact us before ordering and we will price it against the manufacturer's current

Stair Nosing 60x32mm Heavy Duty Anti Slip, 11 Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are re-covering a commercial stair and the old edge trim has started to lift, this is the profile that replaces it and stays put. It is a heavy duty aluminium stair nosing, 60mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, extruded in a 5mm gauge so it sits correctly under contract carpet and the thicker resilient finishes. The back is straight, which means it suits a conventional square riser rather than a raked one — check that before you order. A replaceable anti-slip PVC insert clips into the single channel, and you choose its colour from eleven options; that colour is what gives the step edge its contrast. Six lengths are stocked, from a 1.0m bar for a landing or a narrow flight up to the full 3.22m.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 5mm gauge is what keeps the fixings tight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStair nosings rarely fail in the material. They fail at the fixing. A thin extrusion flexes every time somebody's weight lands on the overhang, and that small repeated movement is what works screws loose, until the nosing lifts and becomes the hazard it was fitted to prevent. At 5mm the section does not deflect meaningfully under foot traffic, so the fixings stay tight and the floorcovering stays trapped under the flange. The same gauge gives you the depth to bring a heavy contract carpet or a thick vinyl up to the nosing without leaving a lip in the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is the wearing part, and you can change it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PVC insert takes all of the abrasion, because it is the part being walked on. Here it clips into the channel and lifts out while the aluminium stays screwed to the tread, so a tired stairwell can be brought back to specification without lifting the floorcovering or re-drilling. It also means the contrast colour is not a permanent decision — if the floor finish changes in ten years, the inserts change with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the manufacturer publishes on slip resistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that the standard PVC insert achieves category R11 on the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test, at a measured angle of 22.9 degrees, and pendulum values under BS 7976-2:2002 of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group classes a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential. The manufacturer describes the insert as a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed specifically for non-scuff stair nosing use. These are the manufacturer's published figures, carried across here — we are a supplier, not a test house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchools, colleges and university buildings, where a carpeted stair block takes several hundred passes a day. Office fire escape stairs and feature staircases. Hospitals, health centres and care settings with accessibility obligations. Hotels, leisure centres and retail, where the stair is on show as well as in use. Communal stairs in apartment blocks and student accommodation, and local authority buildings working to BS 8300.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight back, single channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTread depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRiser height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium extrusion, alloy 6063; chemical composition in accordance with BS EN 573-3:2003 and manufacturing tolerance to BS EN 755 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill as standard (LRV 78.9).

Measure the full width of the tread and order the next bar up, because a nosing can be cut down on site but it cannot be extended. The 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m bars are the manufacturer's own stock lengths and cover most commercial flights in one piece; the 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m bars suit landings, short runs and domestic-width stairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen choose the insert colour by contrast, not by preference. What matters is the difference in light reflectance value between the insert and the tread covering as seen from the top of the flight, and the LRV figures for all eleven inserts are in the table above. Against a mid-tone carpet, Yellow at 55.7 is the usual specification in education and healthcare. White at 79.9 reads strongly against dark floors; Black at 4.5, Brown at 9.1 and Cobalt Blue at 9.2 read strongly against pale ones. Red is common on escape routes. Dolphin Grey and Ice Grey are the quieter choices, where the specifier wants the edge defined without making a feature of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's method is: make sure the steps are dry, clean, level and free of debris; mark and drill the fixing positions, plugging where required; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing; screw down with appropriately sized screws; then fit the insert, which covers the screw heads. On carpeted stairs the profile goes down first and the carpet is dressed up to and tucked beneath the flange. Do not overtighten into soft substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor cleaning, the manufacturer specifies a neutral detergent on the inserts, thoroughly rinsed with clean water and dried before foot traffic returns. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. The manufacturer states that solvent cleaners should under no circumstances be used on its aluminium products. Check the fixings during routine maintenance, and replace inserts once the anti-slip texture has worn flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill this fit my stairs if the riser slopes back?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is the straight-back version, made for a riser that meets the tread at a right angle. If your riser slopes, you need a rakeback profile instead — ask us and we will point you at the right one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I replace the insert without taking the nosing off?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The insert clips in and lifts out while the aluminium stays screwed to the stair, so a worn stairwell can be refreshed without lifting carpet or re-drilling treads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor steps?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard PVC insert is specified for internal use. For external steps and wet areas the manufacturer supplies the same aluminium profile with a Tredsafe insert, which is made for wet and dry conditions — contact us if the stair is exposed to weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes it meet DDA and BS 8300 requirements?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrast at the step edge is what those documents are concerned with, and it is achieved here by choosing an insert colour with a suitable LRV difference from the tread covering — the figures are in the specification table. Note that the manufacturer badges certain other profiles in this range as DDA Compliant and does not apply that badge to this one, so if your specification calls for a DDA-marked profile specifically, ask us before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I have it cut to length or pre-drilled?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, through the manufacturer's made-to-measure service, with drilling on request. Contact us with your stair widths before ordering; bespoke cut and drilled lengths are non-returnable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll eleven insert colours and all six lengths are ordered from this page — choose colour and length above and the price updates for that combination. Orders are dispatched from UK stock. If you need a Bright Brass or Black channel finish, an anodised or powder-coated channel, an insert colour from the manufacturer's wider range, or a made-to-measure length, contact us and we will

Stair Nosing 57x32mm Slimline PVC Insert, 11 Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 57 x 32mm slimline nosing is what you fit when a stair edge needs defining and protecting without a heavy profile standing proud of the tread. This profile is a 3mm gauge extruded aluminium carrier with a single coloured PVC insert, raked back so the front face follows a sloping riser instead of sitting off it. It is the plain-insert profile in our 57x32mm range — no photoluminescent strip, no lighting channel — which is what keeps it the least expensive of the three. Eleven insert colours let you set the contrast against the floor covering, and lengths run from 1m up to the full 3.22m mill length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA 3mm carrier sized for thin floor coverings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer lists this profile at a 3mm gauge, designed for use with vinyl, linoleum and medium carpets or similar floor coverings. The gauge is the height the covering has to come up to, so over 2mm vinyl or a medium-pile carpet tile the nosing finishes close to flush rather than leaving a lip to catch a toe. The extrusion is aluminium alloy 6063 T6, with the chemical composition given in accordance with BS EN 573-3:2003 and manufacturing tolerances to BS EN 755; anodised finishes are produced to DIN 17611.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSlip resistance you can put in a specification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard insert is a REACH compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade. The manufacturer publishes an inclined platform result of R11 to DIN 51130:2010 (22.9 degrees corrected) and pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet to BS 7976-2:2002. Both are manufacturer-stated figures for the insert material rather than for a finished staircase. For reference, the UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 and above as low slip potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eContrast is a colour decision, not a profile decision\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer publishes a light reflectance value for each insert colour, running from white at 79.9 down to black at 4.5, with the mill aluminium channel at 78.9. Guidance on step-edge visibility is expressed as a difference in LRV between the nosing and the surface around it, so the colour you choose does the work — a pale insert on a dark floor, or a dark insert on a pale one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchool and college stairwells, office and communal access stairs, healthcare corridors, libraries and civic buildings, retail and hospitality stairs, and shared staircases in flats and housing association blocks. It suits both new stairs and refurbishment work, where the raked back sits against an existing sloping riser without packing. The manufacturer describes this range as intended for commercial and industrial applications; no external exposure rating is published for this line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaked back (sloping front face)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSection size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e57 x 32mm as supplied to us.

The raked back is cut for a stair whose riser slopes backwards; on a square riser the rear leg will stand off and a straight-edge profile is the better buy. Then choose the colour by the floor covering rather than by taste — the LRV figures above are there so you can work out the contrast instead of guessing at it, and yellow, white and canvas are the usual choices on dark vinyl or carpet, with midnight grey, brown and black used on pale stone and terrazzo. Finally, take the length from the widest tread in the flight and cut down on site; the three mill lengths (2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m) are the cheapest way to buy per metre. If you need the step edge to stay visible in a power cut, the photoluminescent version of this same 57x32mm profile carries a green glow strip, and there is an outdoor-grade Tredsafe version of that as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer sets out the sequence: make sure the steps are dry, clean, level and free of debris; mark the drilling positions from the pre-drilled holes if the profile is supplied drilled; drill and plug the step; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing; screw it down with the appropriate screws; then fit the insert, or the insert pip, to cover the screw head. Clean the inserts with a neutral detergent, rinse with clean water and let them dry before foot traffic returns. The aluminium can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth; the manufacturer says solvent cleaners should not be used on its aluminium products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this nosing glow in the dark?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is the plain PVC insert profile, with no photoluminescent strip and no channel for LED strip.

Stair Nosing 69x40mm Bullnose Anti Slip PVC Insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpecify a stair nosing for a commercial interior and you are asking one component to do three jobs at once: define the step edge clearly, give the tread a slip-resistant surface, and survive years of foot traffic without curling, lifting or chipping. This 69 x 40mm aluminium bullnose does all three. The 69mm tread plate carries a wide anti-slip PVC insert, the 40mm front wraps down over the step edge in a deep rounded bullnose, and the whole section is a 3mm gauge aluminium extrusion that is both bonded and screwed to the substrate. Eleven insert colours let you set the tonal contrast the staircase actually needs rather than accepting whatever happens to be in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe bullnose front takes the wear\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eStep edges fail at the arris first. A deep rounded front carries the load away from that corner and spreads it across the curve, so the covering behind it is not being kicked and scuffed at a sharp line. The 40mm return also closes the gap between tread and riser finish, which is where dirt collects and where sheet vinyl starts to lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eA 3mm gauge, not a token one\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer supplies this section in a 3mm gauge, which it states is intended for fixing with vinyl, linoleum and medium carpets or similar floor coverings. That thickness is what lets the nosing be walked on all day in a stair core without deflecting over the fixings. The extrusion is aluminium alloy 6063 in T5\/T6 temper, extruded to DIN EN 755 with composition to BS EN 573-3:2003, and anodised to DIN 17611 where an anodised finish is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is the safety surface\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe tread band is the manufacturer's standard insert: a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed for non-scuff stair nosing use. For that insert the manufacturer publishes an inclined platform result of 22.9 degrees to DIN 51130:2010, giving category R11, and pendulum values to BS 7976-2:2002 of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, so both of those figures sit well clear of that threshold. These are the manufacturer's test results, carried across here as published.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eContrast is a colour decision\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eVisual contrast between the nosing and the tread is what building control and access consultants actually look at, and contrast depends entirely on which insert colour you put against which floor finish. The manufacturer publishes a light reflectance value for every standard insert colour, and those figures are in the table below so you can work the difference out against your own flooring rather than guess.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOffice stair cores and reception steps, school and college stairwells, healthcare corridors and clinic stairs, hotel and student accommodation flights, leisure centres, retail back-of-house stairs and apartment block common stairs. It suits refurbishment as readily as new build, because the profile sits on top of a finished tread rather than needing a rebate cut into it. This is an internal profile; the supplier offers a separate section for external and wet environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003ctable\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eBullnose stair nosing, single channel with a PVC insert\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eTread width\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e69mm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eRiser depth\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e40mm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e3mm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eCarrier material\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium alloy 6063, temper T5\/T6 (DIN EN 755, BS EN 573-3:2003; anodising to DIN 17611)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard REACH-compliant flexible PVC, non-scuff grade\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance, ramp\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 at 22.9 degrees, DIN 51130:2010 - manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance, pendulum\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 66 dry \/ PTV 54 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 - manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, White, Beige, Brown, Canvas, Red, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey, Midnight Grey, Cobalt Blue, Yellow\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eStock lengths\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eCut lengths\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m cut from stock, tolerance plus or minus 5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT and vinyl, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive with mechanical fixings; tape fixing also offered by the supplier\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eLocation\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eInternal stairs only\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eStart with contrast, not with taste. The manufacturer's light reflectance values for the standard insert are: White 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1 and Black 4.5. The mill aluminium channel itself has an LRV of 78.9. Compare the insert LRV against the LRV of your tread covering and pick the colour that opens the biggest gap; a dark insert on a pale vinyl, or White and Yellow on a dark carpet, are the usual answers.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThen choose the length. The three longest options, 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m, are the manufacturer's stock lengths and are the economical choice per metre for a full flight. The 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m options are cut from stock for narrower stairs and small runs, with a tolerance of plus or minus 5mm. Order one nosing per tread, measured to the finished width of the step, and allow for a saw cut at each end if the stair is between sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's sequence is: make sure the steps are dry, clean, free of debris and level; mark and drill through the pre-drilled holes where the profile is supplied pre-drilled; plug the steps; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing and set it down; screw down; then fit the insert or the insert pip to cover the screw heads. Clean inserts with a neutral detergent, rinse thoroughly with clean water and let them dry before they take foot traffic. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. The manufacturer is explicit that solvent cleaners should never be used on its aluminium products.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this nosing DDA compliant?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOur supplier describes this profile as designed with DDA guidance and BS 8300:2009+A1:2010 compliance in mind, and the manufacturer says the range is produced with DDA and building regulations accounted for. The manufacturer's own datasheet marks certain profiles in this range as DDA Compliant and this one is not among them, so we do not present it as a certified DDA product. What Approved Document M and BS 8300 actually ask for is visual contrast at the step edge, which is why the light reflectance values above are published here - use them to demonstrate the contrast your project needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be used outside?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is an internal profile with the standard PVC insert. The supplier lists a separate section for external and wet environments, which uses a different insert, and that is the one to specify for entrance steps, patios or anything exposed to weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is it fixed down?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAdhesive plus mechanical fixings is the manufacturer's own method: bond the underside, screw into plugged holes, then cover the screw heads with the insert or an insert pip. The supplier also lists tape fixing for the range. Fixing straight into a sound, level and dry substrate matters more than the adhesive you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich floor coverings does it suit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier lists carpet, laminate, LVT and tile.

Slip Stair Nosing 52x40mm Flexible PVC Self Adhesive, Black or Grey","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome step edges will not take a rigid nosing. A concrete stair with a worn, rounded arris; a tiled tread a couple of millimetres out of true; a carpeted flight in a rented flat where drilling is not on the table. Screw an aluminium angle onto any of those and it rocks, sits proud at one end and leaves a shadow gap you can see from the bottom of the flight. This 52 x 40mm flexible PVC nosing works the other way round: a soft, bendable angle with the adhesive strip already applied to the back, so it takes up the shape of the nose it is pressed onto instead of fighting it. It goes down with a cloth, a knife and hand pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFlexible PVC that holds its shape\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes the profile as a special PVC mixture that is highly flexible and has a shape memory feature, so it returns to its moulded form rather than staying kinked. That is what lets the 52mm tread leg lie flat on a step that is not quite flat, and the 40mm front leg follow a nose traffic has rounded off. It is also why the manufacturer recommends it for stairs already covered with tile, panel or any other finishing material, whatever the thickness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA grooved tread band, not a separate insert\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grip comes from grooves moulded into the tread face itself. There is no carborundum strip, no bonded insert and no channel, so nothing works loose or needs replacing. The manufacturer states that the grooved section prevents slipping, that the profile carries more grooves than comparable products, and that the groove shape is shallow enough to mop clean. The profile also wraps the full front face of the step, taking knocks that would otherwise land on the bare arris; the manufacturer states that it protects step edges against mechanical damage and that the material is free from compounds harmful to people and animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomestic staircases and shared flights in converted houses and small blocks. Office and retail stairs where the treads are carpeted and a screw-fixed nosing would mean lifting the covering. Tiled steps in kitchens and back-of-house areas. Refurbishment work where a stair needs a grippier edge without taking the flight apart, and rented property where a drill-free fix is the only option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTread leg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e52mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront (riser) leg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNose shape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRounded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlexible PVC, colour throughout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTread surface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMoulded grooves — no separate insert or channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlue or tape; supplied with self-adhesive backing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.2m and 2.0m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, grey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance rating (PTV \/ R)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExterior \/ weathering rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this line — specify for internal stairs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the going of your tread and the drop at the front of the step first. The 52mm leg needs 52mm of clear tread to sit on, and the 40mm leg wants a front face at least that deep, or it will stand proud at the bottom. On a deep bullnose that curls back under itself, measure around the curve rather than straight down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor length, work to your stair width and buy the next size up: 1.2m covers most domestic flights, 2.0m suits wider communal and commercial stairs. Colour is a visibility decision as much as a decorative one: black reads as a strong edge marker against pale concrete, terrazzo or light carpet, while grey sits quieter on mid-grey commercial carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to length with a sharp knife or a fine-toothed saw; the material cuts cleanly at room temperature. Vacuum the tread, degrease it and let it dry; tape will not hold on dust, polish or a damp screed. Peel the liner back a few inches at a time and work along the step, pressing the nose down first and the tread leg after, so you do not trap a bubble at the front. Press the length firmly and keep traffic off while the bond develops. On a porous, rough or painted substrate add a PVC-compatible contact adhesive: the manufacturer lists the fixing method as glue or tape. Clean with a damp mop and a neutral cleaner; avoid solvents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the self-adhesive backing hold on carpet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a low-pile contract carpet it generally will, provided the surface is clean and the pile is sound. On a deep or cushioned domestic pile the tape has little to key into, so use a PVC-compatible contact adhesive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this outside?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would not specify it for external steps. The manufacturer publishes no exterior, UV or weathering rating for this profile and does not list it among its external ranges, so there is nothing to support an outdoor claim.

On a great many older concrete and timber flights the riser leans back under the tread, and a straight-backed nosing fitted to a stair like that will rock on its heel and never sit down properly. This is the profile for those stairs. It is a heavy duty aluminium stair nosing, 60mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, extruded in a 5mm gauge, with the rear face angled back so it beds against a sloping riser instead of fighting it. A replaceable anti-slip PVC insert clips into the single channel in a choice of eleven colours, and it comes in six lengths from 1.0m up to the 3.22m stock bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe angled back is the whole point\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck your stair before you order, because this is the one thing that decides which profile you need. Stand at the side of a step and look at where the riser meets the tread. If that joint is a right angle, you want the straight-backed version. If the riser slopes back, so the tread overhangs it, you want this one. Fit the wrong profile and it will sit proud at the back, flex every time it is stepped on, and work its fixings loose. Fit the right one and the whole underside of the nosing is supported.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e5mm of metal is what keeps the fixings tight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNosings rarely fail in the material; they fail at the fixing. A thin extrusion deflects each time weight lands on the overhang, and that small repeated movement is what walks screws loose until the nosing lifts and becomes the hazard it was fitted to prevent. At 5mm this section does not meaningfully deflect underfoot, so the fixings stay tight and the floorcovering stays trapped under the flange. The same gauge gives the depth to bring contract carpet or a thick vinyl up to the nosing without leaving a lip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is the part that wears, and it lifts out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PVC insert takes all the abrasion because it is the part being walked on. It clips into the channel and can be replaced while the aluminium stays screwed to the tread, so a worn stairwell can be brought back to specification without lifting the floorcovering or re-drilling. The contrast colour is not a permanent decision either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the manufacturer publishes on slip resistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that the standard PVC insert achieves category R11 on the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test at a measured angle of 22.9 degrees, and pendulum values under BS 7976-2:2002 of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group classes a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential. The insert is described as a REACH-compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed for non-scuff stair nosing use.

Hold a set square against the riser and the tread: if there is a visible gap at the bottom, the riser slopes and this is your profile. Then take the length. Measure the full width of the tread and order the next bar up, because a nosing can be cut down on site but not extended. The 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m bars are the manufacturer's stock lengths and cover most commercial flights in one piece; the 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m bars suit landings and short runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the insert colour by contrast rather than preference. What matters is the difference in light reflectance value between the insert and the tread covering seen from the top of the flight, and the figures for all eleven inserts are in the table above. Yellow at 55.7 is the usual specification in education and healthcare. White at 79.9 reads against dark floors; Black at 4.5, Brown at 9.1 and Cobalt Blue at 9.2 read against pale ones. Dolphin Grey and Ice Grey are the quieter choices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's method is: make sure the steps are dry, clean, level and free of debris; mark and drill the fixing positions, plugging where required; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing; screw down with appropriately sized screws; then fit the insert, which covers the screw heads. On a raked riser, check the nosing beds down along its full length before you drill. Do not overtighten into soft substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor cleaning, the manufacturer specifies a neutral detergent on the inserts, rinsed with clean water and dried before foot traffic returns. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. The manufacturer states that solvent cleaners should under no circumstances be used on its aluminium products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I tell whether I need the rakeback or the straight version?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook at the side of a step. If the riser meets the tread at a right angle you need the straight-backed profile; if the riser leans back under the tread, you need this one. If you are unsure, send us a photo taken square-on from the side of the flight and we will tell you which it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor steps?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard PVC insert is specified for internal use. For external steps and wet areas the manufacturer supplies a Tredsafe insert version made for wet and dry conditions — contact us if the stair is exposed to weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I replace the insert without taking the nosing off?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The insert clips in and lifts out while the aluminium stays screwed to the stair, so a worn stairwell can be refreshed without lifting carpet or re-drilling treads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes it meet DDA and BS 8300 requirements?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrast at the step edge is what those documents are concerned with, and it is achieved by choosing an insert colour with a suitable LRV difference from the tread covering — the figures are in the specification table. Note that the manufacturer badges certain other profiles in this range as DDA Compliant and does not apply that badge to this one, so if your specification calls for a DDA-marked profile, ask us before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAre fixings supplied?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrews are not included. The right fixing depends on your substrate — timber, concrete or screed all want something different — so buy them to suit the stair, and pre-drill and plug masonry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll eleven insert colours and all six lengths are ordered from this page — choose colour and length above and the price updates for that combination. Orders are dispatched from UK stock. For a Bright Brass or Black channel finish, an anodised or powder-coated channel, an insert colour from the manufacturer's wider range, or a made-to-measure length, contact us and we will quote

When it scuffs, fades or lifts, you replace the strip rather than the profile and the flooring around it. Available in 38 mm and 50 mm widths and 2 mm and 3.4 mm thicknesses to suit standard commercial nosing channels, in 14 colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSold per metre, in one continuous length\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe price shown is for one metre.\u003c\/strong\u003e Order the number of metres you need and it is supplied uncut as a single continuous length, up to a maximum of 50 m, so a flight can be run without joins in the middle of a tread.

Swapping the strip restores the step edge and the colour contrast for a fraction of the cost of lifting and refitting nosings, and it can be done out of hours without disturbing the floor covering on either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting the size right matters more than the colour\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe insert has to match the channel it goes into. Measure the width of the existing channel (38 mm and 50 mm are the two standard sizes) and its depth, which decides whether you need the 2 mm or the 3.4 mm strip. A strip that is too thin sits proud of nothing and works loose; one that is too thick will not seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColour for contrast\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA step edge is easier to read when the insert contrasts with the tread rather than matching it.

If you still have a piece of the old insert, measure that. Guessing the thickness is the usual cause of a strip that will not stay in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it fit my stair nosing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt fits standard commercial nosing channels in those two widths, which covers most aluminium carriers. It is not a universal part — if your nosing is an unusual profile, send us a photograph and a measurement across the channel before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I stick it straight onto the step?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is an infill strip for a nosing channel, not a stair nosing in its own right.

The insert seats into the channel but double-sided tape or adhesive is what keeps it there under traffic. It is sold separately — ask us for the right width to match your insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll 56 width, thickness and colour combinations are available to order.

Stair Nosing 88x32mm Square Edge Twin Anti Slip Insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhere a stair edge is being rebuilt rather than dressed, a square-edged nosing is usually the right answer: it gives a hard, unmistakable line at the front of the tread and it sits flush against a square-nosed concrete or timber step without the fuss of matching an angle. This 88 x 32mm aluminium profile is that nosing. Two full-length anti-slip PVC insert bands run side by side across an 88mm tread plate, split by a narrow bare aluminium rib, and the front face drops 32mm dead vertical onto the riser. It is a heavy duty commercial section in 6063 aluminium at a 5mm gauge, sized to sit under contract carpet or a resilient floor covering. Eleven insert colours and six lengths cover both the contrast specification and the ones that just have to disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA square edge, not a rake back\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front face of this profile is vertical: 90 degrees to the tread plate, meeting it in a crisp corner with only a hairline radius. That matters in two places. On a square-nosed step it beds flat with no packing and no shadow gap. And from above, the corner reads as a hard line rather than a soft curve, which is exactly what you want a descending user to see. If your treads have a sloping or rounded front, the raked-back 91 x 32mm profile in this range is the one to fit instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo insert bands rather than one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn 88mm tread plate is wide. Filling it with a single band of PVC gives one large flexing surface and one long adhesive line; splitting it into two inserts divided by a bare mill aluminium rib supports each band better and stiffens the extrusion down its length. The twin bands also read as a wider block of colour from the top of a flight than a single strip of the same total area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA 5mm gauge, not a 5mm floor finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gauge quoted for this range is the thickness of the aluminium itself. The manufacturer describes the 5mm gauge as allowing for fixing with heavy duty carpets or similar floor coverings - it is what lets the back leg be dressed into a contract carpet, laminate, LVT or tile finish without the nosing standing proud enough to catch a toe. It is a specification of the metal, not a limit on what you lay against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGrip figures the manufacturer publishes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer publishes test data for the standard PVC insert used across this range. The manufacturer states category \u003cstrong\u003eR11\u003c\/strong\u003e on the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test (22.9° corrected, average of six shod results) and, on the BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum test, an average PTV of \u003cstrong\u003e66 dry\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e54 wet\u003c\/strong\u003e. The UK Slip Resistance Group guidance quoted alongside those figures treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential. The insert is described by the manufacturer as a REACH compliant flexible PVC extrusion grade developed for non-scuff stair nosing use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffice stair cores and shared circulation routes, schools, colleges and university buildings, healthcare and community premises, retail and leisure, and the common stairs of apartment blocks and hotels.

Square front face here; if the step nose is rounded or slopes forward, use the 91 x 32mm raked-back profile in this range instead. Then the insert colour, because that is the safety decision: work from the light reflectance values above and pick an insert well separated from the LRV of your floor covering - White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 against a dark floor; Black at 4.5, Brown at 9.1 or Cobalt Blue at 9.2 against a pale one. Where the nosing is there for wear rather than wayfinding, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey and Canvas disappear into most commercial schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the length. The manufacturer's stock lengths are 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m; our 1m, 1.5m and 2m options are cut from those. Cover the full width of the tread in one piece wherever you can — a butt joint mid-tread is the first place a nosing starts to lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the steps are outside, or exposed to weather and standing water, this is not the profile. The manufacturer makes a separate Tredsafe insert range for external and wet use, and we list a version of it separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's method is straightforward. Make sure the steps are dry, clean, free of debris, level and even. If the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions, then drill and plug the step. Apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing, set it down onto the step, and screw down with appropriately sized screws. Fit the insert, or the insert pip over the screw head, last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maintenance, the manufacturer specifies cleaning the inserts with a neutral detergent, rinsing thoroughly with clean water and letting them dry before foot traffic returns. The aluminium channel can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. Solvent cleaners should not be used on the aluminium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between this and the 91 x 32mm profile?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front face. This 88 x 32mm profile has a square, vertical front face for a square-nosed step. The 91 x 32mm profile in the same range is raked back, angled slightly for steps with a sloping nose, and its tread plate is 3mm wider. Both carry the same twin PVC inserts and the same eleven colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many insert bands does this profile have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo. The 88mm tread plate carries two separate anti-slip PVC insert bands side by side, divided by a narrow strip of bare mill aluminium, with a thin aluminium margin along the front and back edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this nosing outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe do not recommend it. The manufacturer does not publish an external or wet-area rating for the standard PVC insert fitted to this profile. For external steps the manufacturer produces a separate Tredsafe insert range, which we list separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the 5mm gauge refer to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thickness of the aluminium extrusion, not the thickness of a floor covering. The manufacturer describes the 5mm gauge as allowing for fixing with heavy duty carpets or similar floor coverings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be cut to a non-standard length?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The profile is supplied here in fixed lengths, and aluminium cuts cleanly on site with a fine-tooth blade — deburr the cut end before fixing. The manufacturer will also anodise and cut to length to order; contact us if you need that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose your insert colour and length above; every combination of the eleven colours and six lengths is priced individually. Orders are dispatched on a UK-wide courier service. If you need a quantity we do not show, a colour outside the eleven listed, or a made-to-measure length, contact us before ordering and we will price it against the manufacturer's current range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stair Nosings UK","offers":[{"title":"Yellow \/ 88x32mm \/

look after a stairwell in a school, a plant room, a care home or a busy back-of-house corridor, the step edge is where the wear and the accidents happen. This flexible PVC nosing covers 55mm of tread and drops a 40mm skirt over the riser lip, so the whole vulnerable corner of the step is wrapped in one piece of moulded profile. The yellow caution edge is moulded into the nose radius itself, so the colour break is part of the extrusion rather than a tape stuck on top. It bonds down with adhesive, cuts with a knife, and goes onto timber, concrete, tile or laminate steps without any track, clip or screw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe grooves do the gripping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour semicircular grooves run the length of the tread face, set into the thicker front section where feet actually land.

Wider than 2.0m, butt two pieces and keep the joint off the walking line. Check the tread depth as well as the width: the profile needs a flat, unobstructed 55mm band behind the nose, and the 40mm skirt should sit clear of any riser moulding already on the step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWork at room temperature; if the profile has been stored somewhere cold, the manufacturer advises warming it with warm air or water first so it lies flat. Check the step surface is clean, dry and even, then trim the profile to the exact width of the step. Apply assembly adhesive suited to the substrate to the top surface of the profile only — the manufacturer is specific that the vertical lip should not be glued, so the skirt stays free to flex. Press down firmly along the full length and let the adhesive cure before the stair goes back into use.

Screwing through flexible PVC risks dimpling the tread face, so if you need a mechanically fixed nosing, ask us about the aluminium ranges instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it work on an external step?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would not specify it outdoors.

The manufacturer describes the blend as highly adaptable with shape memory, so it takes up a rounded arris or a chipped step front.

It is a hard-nose PVC stair nosing measuring 67mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, with a shallow ramp at the front so the transition onto the step is gradual rather than a hard lip. The extrusion is a single moulded section with a wide anti-slip insert bedded into the tread channel. It is specified where a stair is getting a new floor covering, or where a worn concrete or timber nose needs rebuilding and protecting rather than replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe body is black — the colour you choose is the insert\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the one thing to get right before you order.

Stair Nosing 35 x 19.5mm Anodised Aluminium, Twin Rubber Inserts","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are edging stairs that already have their floor covering down and you do not want a heavy, institutional-looking nosing on them, this is the profile that does the job quietly. It is a slim anodised aluminium angle, 35mm across the tread and dropping just 19.5mm down the riser, with two ribbed rubber anti-slip strips set into the walking surface. It screws down through the tread, and because the screws sit in channels underneath the rubber, nothing shows once the strips are pressed back in. Fitters use it on refurbishments where the treads are sound but the front edges have worn, chipped or gone slippery, and on new stairs where the specification asks for a defined edge without a bulky one.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo grip strips, not one\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eMost trims in this size range carry a single insert down the middle of the tread. This one carries two, side by side, separated by a band of the anodised metal. That matters for the way people actually walk: a foot placed anywhere across the front 35mm of the step lands on rubber rather than on bare metal, and the split between the two strips gives water and grit somewhere to go instead of sitting on one flat rubber face. The strips are ribbed along their length, which is the direction that resists a foot sliding forwards off the nose.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe fixings disappear\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe rubber strips are a push-fit into channels in the extrusion, and the screw holes sit inside those channels. You pull the strips out, fix the trim down, then press the strips back in. The finished edge reads as a clean unbroken line of metal and rubber, with no countersunk screw heads catching the light along the step. It also means the strips can be pulled and replaced later if they wear, without disturbing the aluminium.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eA shallow profile that sits down\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe rear of the tread plate tapers to a thin feather edge, so it lies onto carpet, laminate or vinyl rather than standing proud of it as a trip hazard in its own right. At 19.5mm the front face is about half the depth of the top plate, which keeps the trim visually light on a domestic staircase while still covering the arris of the step.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOffice stairs and shared circulation areas, school and college corridors, hotel and restaurant flights, apartment block common stairs, retail units and showrooms, and domestic staircases and loft conversions.

Measure the full width of your widest tread and buy the next length up, because the trim is cut to fit on site and a joint mid-step looks poor and collects dirt. A standard UK domestic flight at around 860mm takes the 1.0m; most commercial flights between 900mm and 1200mm take the 2.0m and yield an offcut; the 2.7m is for wide flights, or for buying one length and cutting two narrow treads from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThen finish. Silver is the neutral that disappears against grey vinyl and pale laminate. Champagne is a soft warm beige-gold that sits well with oak, beige carpet and cream paintwork. Gold is a brighter brass tone for traditional interiors. All three take the same black insert, so the grip strips read as a dark line whichever carrier you pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eLay your floor covering first, then offer the trim up so the rear taper sits on top of it and the front leg touches the riser. Cut to length with a mitre saw and a non-ferrous blade, or a hacksaw. Pull both rubber strips out of their channels, mark and drill through the fixing positions, fix down with the supplied screws and plugs, then press the strips back in. Clean with warm water and a neutral detergent. Avoid abrasive pads and solvent cleaners, which dull the anodised surface. If a strip wears, pull it and fit a replacement rather than replacing the whole trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many rubber inserts does this nosing have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTwo. They run side by side along the tread face with a band of the anodised metal between them. This is a twin-insert profile, not the more common single-strip type, and it is the main reason to choose it over a plain one-strip trim in the same size.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the screw heads be visible once it is fitted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The fixing holes sit inside the channels that hold the rubber strips. You lift the strips out to fix the trim down and press them back in afterwards, which covers the screws completely. The manufacturer supplies a set of four screws and plugs with each trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich length should I order for a standard staircase?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure your widest tread and go one length up so you can trim on site. A typical UK domestic stair of about 860mm takes the 1.0m. Commercial treads of 900mm to 1200mm take the 2.0m. The 2.7m suits wide flights or cutting two narrow treads from one length.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I fit this on outside steps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe would not specify it outdoors.

It is 5.0mm thick, one piece of brass all the way through, with no plating and no insert. It is made to finish the nose of a stair where carpet or carpet tiles butt up behind it, or it can be rebated so it sits flush in a timber tread.

It is a surface-mounted aluminium stair nosing, 85mm across the tread and 32mm down the riser, and along its front edge runs a photoluminescent strip that charges from ordinary room lighting and then glows green in the dark. Behind that strip sit two full-length anti-slip PVC insert channels, split by a bare mill aluminium rib. There is no wiring, no driver, no battery and nothing to fail: the profile is fitted exactly like a conventional screw-fix nosing and the glow is simply part of the extrusion.

The manufacturer publishes a light reflectance value for each: White 79.9, Yellow 55.7, Canvas 53.2, Ice Grey 42.1, Beige 41.1, Dolphin Grey 27.6, Midnight Grey 12.8, Red 10.6, Cobalt Blue 9.2, Brown 9.1, Black 4.5. The mill aluminium channel is quoted at 78.9. Put a high-LRV insert on a dark floor and a low-LRV insert on a pale one; the wider the gap, the more clearly the edge reads in daylight. Black and Midnight Grey make the strip look brightest at night because the surrounding band is darkest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt fits like any other top-mounted nosing: down onto the completed step, over the floor covering rather than under it, which is what makes it suitable for refurbishment as well as new work. Choose fixings to suit the substrate; they are not supplied. The one thing worth planning is charge — the strip needs light falling on it to work, so avoid running carpet or a nosing cover over the front band, and remember that a stair which is kept in permanent darkness will never charge in the first place. For cleaning, the manufacturer asks that inserts be washed with a neutral detergent, rinsed thoroughly with clean water and left dry before use. Avoid organic solvents, and keep the glow strip free of dirt build-up, because anything sitting on it blocks both the charge and the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it need any wiring or power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNone. It is photoluminescent, not electrical — the strip absorbs ordinary room or daylight and re-emits it once the lights go off. There is no cable, no transformer, no driver and no battery, and nothing that can fail or need replacing. It installs exactly like a standard screw-fix nosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is this different from an LED stair nosing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn LED nosing contains a powered light source and needs a supply, a driver and a route for the cable, which usually means planning it into the build. This one needs none of that, and it keeps working during the power cut that switches an LED nosing off. The trade-off is that it emits a soft green glow rather than a bright line, and it has to see light during the day in order to give light at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the glow actually last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes before it falls to 0.32 mcd\/m², from a ten-minute charge. That is comfortably longer than any evacuation, and the strip recharges every time the lights come back on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it outside?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would not specify it for an external flight. The manufacturer publishes no external rating for the standard PVC insert, and its external route is a separate textured insert range built for wet and dry conditions. Ask us and we will point you at the external build of this section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between this and your cheaper 85x32mm nosing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe section is the same — same 85mm tread, same 32mm rake back riser, same twin anti-slip inserts. This one adds the photoluminescent strip along the front edge, which is the whole of the price difference. If the stair is never dark, or it has maintained emergency lighting you are happy to rely on, the plain version does the same job for less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre fixings included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Screws and any plugs are chosen to suit your substrate and bought separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery colour and length is priced individually — pick the combination you need and the price updates.

Stair Nosing 66x32mm Ramped Anti Slip Glow Edge","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 66mm x 32mm slimline profile with a ramped tread plate, meaning it tapers down onto the floor covering rather than presenting a square lip at the back. That is the detail worth paying attention to on a stair where trolleys, wheeled cases or a mop cart cross the nosing daily, and on any flight where a raised back edge would collect dirt. A green photoluminescent strip runs the leading edge, charging from the building's ordinary lighting and glowing on its own once that light is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRamped, not stepped\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back edge of the plate is tapered so the transition onto the covering is gradual. It reduces the trip lip, it stops the back edge acting as a dirt line, and it makes the nosing less likely to be caught and lifted by a wheel. On a busy commercial stair that is the difference between a nosing that stays put and one that works loose at the back corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation and a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. It recharges whenever the stair is lit and cannot fail in a power cut. For the insert, the manufacturer states a DIN 51130:2010 classification of R11 at 22.9° corrected and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 66 dry and PTV 54 wet — both well clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The carrier is 6063 aluminium to BS EN 573-3:2003.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHospitals, care homes, hotels and schools where cleaning equipment and wheeled traffic cross the stair, plus offices and apartment blocks generally. The slim section suits a standard tread depth, and the ramped back edge suits vinyl and lino as much as carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRamped slimline stair nosing, 66mm tread x 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe supplier states 5mm for this profile, while the manufacturer's datasheet describes the slimline range as a 3mm gauge.

Contrast guidance is expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the floor around it, and the manufacturer publishes an LRV for all eleven inserts — they are in the table above. Against a dark floor, White at 79.9 or Yellow at 55.7 give the widest separation; against a pale floor, Black at 4.5 or Brown at 9.1 do the same in reverse.

Stair Nosing 60x32mm Outdoor Grade Anti Slip Glow Edge, 4 Colours","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the external-grade version of our 60mm x 32mm heavy duty step edge. The extruded black PVC body is identical to the internal version; what changes is the insert, a harder quartz-loaded grade that the supplier lists for indoor and outdoor environments. A 13mm green photoluminescent strip runs along the leading edge, charging from daylight or building lighting and glowing on its own once that light is gone. There is no wiring, no driver and no LED anywhere in it, which is exactly why it suits an external escape route where running a cable would be the expensive part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is the difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes this insert as a blend of PVC, silica quartz and polymeric plasticiser, and states that it meets BS 3261:1973 for sheet vinyl and vinyl tiles. It carries a three-dimensional pyramid surface and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention, and is stated to resist ultraviolet light, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis; organic solvents will soften it. The published slip figures are inclined platform testing to DIN 51130:2010 at 24.7°, category R11, and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet — both clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The manufacturer also publishes flame spread 0 and smoke development 7, a Taber H18 abrasion loss of 0.6g over 1,000 revolutions, and a mean residual indentation of 0.05mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe luminous element is a europium-doped strontium aluminate compound emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm. The manufacturer states the system needs no electrical connection and no special maintenance, and that ordinary daylight, fluorescent tube or tungsten filament light is enough to charge it. Published performance is an afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow of more than 600 minutes and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes. Because it stores and re-emits ambient light it recharges every time there is light on the stair, and it cannot fail in a power cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA PVC body, not a metal one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe profile itself is extruded in black PVC rather than aluminium, and on an external step that matters more than it does indoors: there is no metal to corrode where de-icing salt, coastal air or standing water reaches the nosing. It is also quieter underfoot and can be cut on site with ordinary tools. The rear of the profile tapers down to 3mm so it feathers into the tread rather than standing proud as a trip hazard of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal entrance steps, fire escapes and yard or plant steps, car park and service stairs, and covered external routes at schools, hospitals and public buildings.

These external-grade figures are not the same as the standard insert range, so do not carry an LRV across from the internal version of this profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn length, the 3.22m rung is the manufacturer's stock extrusion and works out cheapest per metre, so on a wide flight it is usually better value to take a 3.22m length and cut it than to buy two shorter pieces. Measure the finished width of the tread rather than the width between strings, and let the nosing run the full width so no cut end is left exposed at either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's sequence is: make sure the steps are dry, clean, level, even and free of debris; if the profile is pre-drilled, use the holes to mark the drilling positions; drill and plug; apply a suitable adhesive to the underside of the nosing and set it onto the step; screw down with appropriately sized screws; then fit the insert, or the pip, to cover the screw head. On external steps treat the mechanical fixings as essential rather than optional — adhesive alone is not enough once frost and standing water are involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor cleaning, the manufacturer recommends scrubbing with a bristle brush and warm soapy water; commercial scrubber-dryers are also suitable. The pyramid surface holds more dirt than a smooth floor, so it needs regular attention rather than occasional deep cleaning. No solvent cleaners — organic solvents soften the insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this stair nosing need wiring or an LED driver?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. There is no lighting channel and no electrical connection of any kind.

The riser leg is raked back, which suits stairs with a sloping riser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is the difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes this insert as a blend of PVC, silica quartz and polymeric plasticiser, stating that it meets BS 3261:1973 for sheet vinyl and vinyl tiles. It carries a three-dimensional pyramid surface and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention, and is stated to resist UV, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis. Their published slip figures are a DIN 51130:2010 classification of R11 at 24.7° corrected, and BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet — both above the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential. The manufacturer lists it for substrates including concrete, timber, tile, vinyl, steel and checker plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation and a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes. It recharges whenever there is light on the stair and cannot fail in a power cut. The channel is extruded from 6063 aluminium to BS EN 573-3:2003, so the nose takes the wear instead of the step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal entrance steps, fire escapes and access stairs, plant and yard steps, car park and service stairs, and any internal stairwell where a mains-independent escape marker is wanted.

If your steps are fully internal and you want a wider choice of insert colour, the standard-insert version of this same profile offers eleven colours at a lower price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaked-back stair nosing, 57mm tread x 32mm riser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium, alloy 6063 to BS EN 573-3:2003, temper T5\/T6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChannel finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMill aluminium, LRV 78.9 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-slip insert\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePVC with silica quartz and polymeric plasticiser, pyramid surface, polyurethane coated; meets BS 3261:1973 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnvironmental rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for indoor and outdoor environments — supplier stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (ramp)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR11 at 24.7° corrected, DIN 51130:2010 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlip resistance (pendulum)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTV 57 dry, PTV 47 wet, BS 7976-2:2002 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhotoluminescent strip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEuropium-doped strontium aluminate, green, 520nm peak; 455 mcd\/m² at 10 minutes, highly visible \u0026gt;600 minutes; UL94 HB — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInsert colours and LRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite 49.9, Yellow 48.1, Dolphin Grey 11.5, Black 4.6 — manufacturer stated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.46m, 2.77m, 3.22m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable floor finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarpet, laminate, LVT, tile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdhesive, screw or tape; screw fixing recommended for external steps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnodising and bespoke lengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAvailable to order\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDDA classification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published for this profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour insert colours and six lengths. The 2.46m, 2.77m and 3.22m options are the manufacturer's stock extrusion lengths; 1.0m, 1.5m and 2.0m are cut from the same profile and usually suit a domestic or single-flight stair. Measure the full tread width, order the next length up and cut back on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour is a contrast decision rather than a decorative one. Contrast guidance is expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the floor around it, and the manufacturer publishes an LRV for each insert — all four are in the table above. Against dark tarmac, concrete or a dark entrance mat, White at 49.9 or Yellow at 48.1 open the widest gap; against pale stone or light vinyl, Black at 4.6 or Dolphin Grey at 11.5 do the same in reverse. Work the difference out against your own surface before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the step is dry, clean, level and free of debris. Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, set it down, then screw down and fit the insert or insert pip over the screw heads. On external steps use mechanical fixings rather than relying on adhesive or tape alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the insert with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water, letting it dry before traffic returns. The pyramid surface holds more dirt than a smooth floor, so the manufacturer suggests a bristle brush and warm soapy water, or a commercial scrubber. The aluminium can be brought back with steel wool or a cloth. Do not use solvent cleaners on either part — organic solvents soften the insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this take an LED strip?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. There is no lighting channel and no electrical component of any kind.

The standard PVC insert on our other 91x32mm profile is an internal specification, and the manufacturer says so. This one is the exception: same wide 91mm x 32mm aluminium section, same twin channel, but fitted with the coarse Tredsafe insert that the manufacturer's own selection guide marks as suitable for external use. It is what you order for entrance steps, fire escapes and anywhere the stair sees weather. It also carries the same green photoluminescent strip along the leading edge, which charges from daylight or the building's lighting and glows once that light is gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe insert is a different material, not a different colour\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTredsafe is not PVC with a texture printed on it. The manufacturer describes it as a blend of PVC, silica quartz and polymeric plasticiser, extruded into a homogeneous hard-wearing sheet with a three-dimensional pyramid pattern and a polyurethane coating that reduces dirt retention. That is where the grip in the wet comes from, and it is why the surface looks and feels coarse rather than smooth. The manufacturer states it meets BS 3261:1973 for sheet vinyl and vinyl tiles, and publishes a DIN 51130:2010 ramp classification of R11 at 24.7° corrected with BS 7976-2:2002 pendulum values of PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet — both clear of the 36 PTV mark the UK Slip Resistance Group associates with low slip potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo channels across a 91mm tread\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 91mm tread plate takes two runs of insert side by side, split by a slim bare-metal rib, so the grip carries back under the whole footfall instead of stopping an inch behind the nose. On a deep step or a stair taking heavy two-way traffic that is the difference worth paying for. The channel is a heavy duty 5mm gauge section, sized for thick commercial floor coverings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe glow strip is chemistry, not electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer identifies the photoluminescent element as europium-doped strontium aluminate, emitting green at a peak wavelength of 520nm, with afterglow brightness of 455 mcd\/m² ten minutes after excitation, a highly visible afterglow lasting more than 600 minutes and a total afterglow duration of more than 3,000 minutes before it decays to 0.32 mcd\/m². There is no wiring, no driver and no battery, so it cannot fail in a power cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal access steps, entrance stairways, fire escapes and covered walkways — anywhere the stair is exposed to rain, grit and temperature swing. It works equally well inside on wet-prone internal stairs: plant rooms, kitchens, pool surrounds, loading bays and back-of-house circulation.

Contrast guidance is expressed as a difference in Light Reflectance Value between the step edge and the surrounding floor. Both channels take the same colour, and there are four: against a dark surface White at 82.7 gives the widest separation, and Yellow at 46.1 reads strongly in daylight; against pale concrete or stone, Black at 4.8 or Dolphin Grey at 18.2 do the same in reverse. Work the difference out against your own step rather than choosing on appearance. If you need the eleven-colour palette rather than these four, our standard-insert 91x32mm profile carries it — but that one is rated for internal use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the step is dry, clean, level and free of debris. Mark and drill your fixing positions and plug the step. Bed the nosing on a suitable adhesive, set it onto the step, then screw down and fit both inserts or insert pips over the screw heads. A wide profile like this wants fixings at closer centres than a narrow one — do not rely on adhesive alone across a 91mm plate, particularly outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pyramid surface holds more dirt than a smooth floor, so it needs a brush rather than a mop. The manufacturer recommends scrubbing with a bristle brush and warm soapy water, or a commercial scrubber-drier; rinse with clean water and let it dry before traffic returns.

On slip resistance it publishes category R11 under the DIN 51130:2010 inclined platform test at a ramp angle of 24.7 degrees, and pendulum values under BS 7976-2:2002 of PTV 57 dry and PTV 47 wet. The UK Slip Resistance Group treats a PTV of 36 or above as low slip potential, so the wet figure still sits clear of that threshold — and the wet figure is the one that matters on an outside step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt to be left outside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states the Tredsafe insert resists ultraviolet light, oil, grease, petrol, salt, dilute acids and alkalis and common household detergents, and carries a polyurethane coating to reduce dirt retention. Salt resistance is the relevant one for steps that get gritted in winter. Published wear figures are 0.6g weight loss on a Taber abrader (H18 wheel, 1kg load, 1000 revolutions), mean residual indentation of 0.05mm, dimensional stability of 0.12% and moisture movement of 0.02%.

Clean with a neutral detergent and rinse with clean water; the quartz-loaded surface holds dirt more than a smooth floor, so a bristle brush and warm soapy water beats a mop.

These are heavy duty anti-slip stair nosings: a pultruded GRP angle that caps the step edge, with a hard ceramic grit bonded into the top and front faces. They retrofit over concrete, timber, metal and stone, so you can bring an existing flight back up to standard without rebuilding it. Choose the profile, the grit grade, the length and the colour, and fit them with adhesive and stainless screws in an afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCeramic grit, not a coating\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grip on a painted nosing sits in a film on the surface and wears off along the walking line.

The manufacturer publishes pendulum test values (PTV) of 76 dry and 70 wet for this heavy duty grade, against 71 dry and 63 wet for its standard-grit nosing.

White suits pale stone and lighter interiors; black is the discreet option where the edge is already marked another way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength.\u003c\/strong\u003e Order the length that covers the full step width where you can – a single run looks better and leaves fewer end joints to lift. Longer lengths can be cut down on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer’s own instructions are to run a 6mm bead of high-strength gap-filling adhesive around the underside about 15mm in from the edges, press the nosing firmly home, then mechanically fix it: drill roughly 50mm in from each end and then every 400–500mm, and screw down with stainless steel Pozi 32mm x 4.2mm screws set flush with the top surface. The substrate dictates the drill – a 6mm masonry bit and plugs into concrete, 3.85mm into timber or steel. Cut with a diamond blade or a jigsaw, wearing eye and hand protection. For cleaning, the manufacturer recommends a stiff brush, a mild detergent for stubborn dirt and a low-setting power wash where circumstances allow, plus a monthly check that the fixings are still tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich profile do I need – 55mm x 55mm or 70mm x 30mm?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that a 55mm x 55mm nosing is the one to specify where Building Regulations apply to a new stair, because it gives full depth on both the tread and the riser. The 70mm x 30mm is the retrofit shape: more grit on the tread, a shallower drop over the riser face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the fine and coarse grades?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine is the internal grade and coarse is the external one. The manufacturer publishes a pendulum reading of 76 dry and 70 wet for this heavy duty grit. Coarse has larger, more angular grit that sheds water better outdoors; fine is more comfortable underfoot inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan these be cut to length on site?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The manufacturer’s instructions cover cutting with orbital equipment and a diamond blade, an angle grinder with a 1mm blade, or a jigsaw for small trims. Cut outdoors or with dust extraction, and wear goggles and gloves. The manufacturer quotes a tolerance of +\/- 3–4mm including cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need adhesive as well as screws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer’s double fixing method uses both: adhesive to bed the nosing flat and take up any unevenness, screws to hold it mechanically. You can fix mechanically only, following the same steps without the adhesive, but the bonded method gives better contact on a worn concrete edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre they fire rated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer offers a fire retardant version as an option, but no fire classification is published for the stock profile sold here. If your specification calls for a rated product, contact us before ordering and we will take it up with the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery combination of colour, length and profile on this page is a separate stock line, so select all three before adding to your basket.

Edge\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you look after a staircase whose step edges are chipped, slippery or worn through, this flexible PVC nosing lets you put it right without lifting the existing floor. It is a black L-shaped profile with a ribbed anti-slip tread and a low bevelled leading edge, made to bond straight over a step already finished in vinyl, LVT, laminate, timber, tile or screed. Facilities teams, landlords, care-home managers and homeowners buy it because it covers the damage, adds grip where feet land, and takes the trip hazard out of a broken edge. You cut it, glue it, and the stair is back in use the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFlexible PVC follows the step you actually have\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRigid aluminium nosings need a true, square edge to sit on. This profile is extruded from flexible PVC, so it conforms to steps that are out of square, rounded from wear, or not quite straight. It trims with a sharp knife or tin snips and bends around minor irregularities instead of leaving hollows behind the tread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eA bevelled edge instead of a step up\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 2.5mm thick the tread sits low on the step, and the front edge is chamfered so the transition from floor to nosing is a slope rather than a lip. On a retrofit this matters, because any raised edge at the top of a step is a new place to catch a toe. The bevel removes that risk while still giving a clear black line at every step edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRibbed tread for grip\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top face is moulded with fine parallel ribs running the full length of the profile.

Measure the clear width of the tread between the strings or walls. Most domestic stairs are 80cm to 95cm wide, so a 1 metre length does one step with a small offcut. For steps wider than a metre, or to avoid a joint mid-step, order the 2.7 metre length and cut it down; it also works out cheaper per step across a whole flight. Order one length per step and add one spare for cutting errors. If your steps already overhang the riser by more than about 30mm, check that the 36mm downturn will still sit flat against the riser before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the step edge and make sure it is dry and free of polish or old adhesive.

Cut to length, dry-fit, then apply contact adhesive to both the step and the back of the profile, let it go tacky, and press the nosing firmly into place from one end to the other.

A cut tile arris chips, a bullnose adds cost and lead time, and a strip screwed on afterwards looks like an afterthought. This heavy duty tile-in nosing solves it as the tiles go down. The aluminium profile is fixed to the step first, its perforated tiling leg beds under the tread tile, and the tiles finish flush against the section. You get a protected, colour-contrasted stair edge that reads as part of the tiling — which is why it appears on office and school stairs as often as in a hallway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe tile does not carry the load\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a tiled stair without a nosing, the most vulnerable point on the flight — the unsupported tile arris at the nose — takes every heel strike, trolley wheel and dropped tool.

If your stairs are already finished, a surface-mounted stair nosing is the right profile instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre the screws included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The profile arrives pre-drilled and the pips that cap the screw heads are included, but you supply the screws and plugs so that they suit your substrate. Timber, concrete and screed each want something different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the 10mm and 12.5mm versions?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly the depth of the channel the tile sits in. Everything else is identical: same section, same insert, same eleven colours, same four lengths. Measure your tile before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the insert be replaced later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The insert is a separate PVC strip held in the tread channel, so it can be lifted and renewed on a worn flight without lifting any tiles or disturbing the aluminium body. Order the same colour, length and tile depth to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor steps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAluminium copes well with weather and this profile is used on covered external steps. For fully exposed steps, use corrosion-resistant fixings and seal the profile edges. No frost or external slip rating is published for this line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrder one nosing per tread: count the steps, then choose the length that clears your stair width. Select insert colour, length and tile depth above — every combination is priced on its own, so the price updates as you go. Stock is held in the UK and dispatched from our UK warehouse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stair Nosings UK","offers":[{"title":"White \/ 1.0m \/

Stair Nosing 45x40mm Surface Mount Anti-Slip Step Edge Trim","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome step edges need more than a token trim over the corner. Where a tread is thick, where the nose has been chipped back, or where a tiled step has lost its arris, a shallow profile just highlights the damage it is supposed to hide. This one has a 40mm front face — nearly as deep as the 45mm top plate is wide — so it wraps a long way down the riser and covers the whole exposed edge in one piece. The top is ribbed across its full width for grip, and the profile is screw-fixed through holes that arrive already drilled and countersunk.

If you have measured your step nose and a standard trim comes up short, this is the profile that closes the gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRetrofit, not rebuild\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt sits on top of the finished tread rather than being bedded into it, so it goes onto a staircase that is already tiled, laminated or boarded. Nothing has to come up. The trade-off is honest and worth knowing before you order: the 2mm plate stands 2mm proud of the tread surface, so there is a small lip at the front of each step. If you need a finish that is completely flush with the floor, you need a tile-in profile fitted during the floor installation, not this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRibbed and anodised\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine grooves run the full 45mm width of the top face, breaking up what would otherwise be a smooth metal surface at the point where a foot is most likely to skid. The supplier describes it as a grooved anti-slip top surface.

Drill pilot holes, plug them if you are fixing into tile, concrete or masonry rather than timber, and screw down until the heads sit flush in the countersinks.

It is a 66mm wide extruded aluminium nosing, 29mm deep and 3mm thick, with a ramp-shaped front face and a PVC anti-slip insert bonded in at the step nose. You screw it down on top of the finished tread. That makes it the standard choice for refurbishment work, safety upgrades ordered after a building inspection, and any stair where lifting the laminate, vinyl or carpet to fit a tile-in nosing is not worth the disruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe grip sits where people actually slip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlips on stairs happen at the nose of the tread, in the moment the foot loads onto the edge. The PVC insert sits in the ramp face at exactly that point and is rated R11, putting the grip where it is needed. It is bonded during manufacture rather than glued on afterwards, so it cannot lift, peel or work loose under traffic — the usual failure mode of stick-on anti-slip tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe ramp profile keeps the transition shallow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA square-edged nosing sitting proud of a finished floor creates a lip.

A standard domestic staircase is usually 860–900mm wide, so 1000mm is the common household choice; 1500mm and up covers school corridors, offices and public stairs. The 3000mm is cut to order from the manufacturer's 3200mm bar, so allow a little extra lead time on that length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the depth before you order. This profile covers 29mm of tread. If you need a deeper cover for a worn or chipped step edge, the DDA version of the same profile gives 53mm, and a 94mm double-channel version exists for wide commercial treads — both are listed separately. For contrast, hold the insert colour against your actual floor rather than a screen: photographs shift beige and grey badly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to length, then dry-position the nosing on the tread with its front face flush to the step edge. Mark through the pre-drilled holes, drill pilot holes, and fix down using the supplied screws — on concrete or stone treads, swap in masonry anchors sized to the substrate. Drive the screws flush and press in the colour-matched cover pips to finish. Afterwards, sweep or damp-mop as you would the surrounding floor; do not use solvent or abrasive cleaners on the PVC insert, which will dull the grip texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is this different from a tile-in nosing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one fits on top of a finished floor and screws down. A tile-in nosing is bedded into the tile adhesive while the floor is being laid, which means lifting the covering if the stair is already finished. Use this profile for existing staircases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the insert be replaced when it wears?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The PVC is bonded in during manufacture and is not a removable strip. That is what stops it lifting in service, but it does mean a worn nosing is replaced as a whole unit rather than re-inserted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich insert colour should I pick for safety compliance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhichever contrasts most with your floor. Red and Yellow are the conventional choices in schools and public buildings. Contrast is judged against the actual finished floor, so confirm the pairing with your building control officer for a formal compliance case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre fixings supplied?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Screws come with every nosing, along with colour-matched cover pips that cap the heads for a clean finish. On concrete or stone treads you may prefer masonry anchors sized to your substrate instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat length do I need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne nosing per tread, cut to the width of that tread. Measure at the widest point, order the next length up, and count your steps — a 13-step domestic flight needs 13 nosings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelect your insert colour and length above; every combination of the eight colours and eight lengths is stocked and priced individually. Orders placed before the daily cut-off are dispatched the same working day from UK stock, with the 3000mm cut to order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stair Nosings UK","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ 900mm x

The A37 is a slim 36mm x 20mm anodised aluminium nosing carrying two black rubber anti-slip strips. The strips lift out of their channels, so you fix through the holes underneath and press them back to cover the heads — a clean metal edge and two lines of grip, with nothing visible holding it down. At 36mm across the tread it is one of the narrower nosings available, which suits period houses, flats and refurbishments where a wide commercial profile would look heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo lines of grip instead of one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost budget aluminium nosings carry a single rubber strip at the leading edge. This one carries two parallel strips across the tread face. That matters because people do not place their feet identically: a foot landing short catches the front strip, one landing long catches the second. It is a contact zone, not a line. No slip resistance rating is published for this profile, so if you are specifying against a documented R-value or pendulum figure, you need a nosing that carries test data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe fixings stay covered\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConcealed fixing is not only cosmetic: exposed screw heads sit proud as the surrounding material compresses underfoot, and the recesses collect grit. Under the rubber, the tread face stays flush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAnodised rather than coated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour is anodised into the surface rather than applied on top, so it does not chip at an edge the way paint or powder coat can. Aluminium does not rust, and the rigid body carries the load while the rubber grips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo removable rubber anti-slip strips, not one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew fixing, concealed beneath the strips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive anodised finishes, three lengths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomestic staircases in houses and flats, where the stair is a visible feature and a heavy commercial nosing would look wrong. Period and listed properties, where a slim profile intrudes less on original joinery. Refurbishment work, covering a chipped or worn step edge rather than specified from new. Light commercial settings — small offices, care homes, boutique retail. Not one for heavy industrial traffic, where a wider surface-mounted nosing takes more abuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; font-size:14px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:8px; text-align:left; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:8px; text-align:left; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTread width\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e36mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile depth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e20mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eAnodised aluminium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-slip inserts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e2 x black rubber, removable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFixing method\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eScrew fixing, concealed beneath the inserts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFixings supplied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003ePlugs and screws included; a set of four is specified — the quantity per length is not published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLengths\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e0.9m, 1.8m, 2.7m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinishes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eSilver, Gold, Champagne, Inox, Black — all with black rubber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSlip resistance rating\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eNot published for this line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable substrates\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border:1px solid #dee2e6;\"\u003eTimber, laminate, LVT and vinyl, tile, concrete, carpet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right option\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength first. A standard UK domestic tread is around 860–900mm, so a 0.9m bar covers one step. The 1.8m and 2.7m are the same profile in longer bars: the 2.7m cuts into three domestic steps and works out cheaper per metre than three 0.9m pieces. Measure your treads first — stairs in older houses are rarely uniform top to bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish next. Silver is natural anodised aluminium, good against white, grey and light timber. Gold is warm and suits honey pine and traditional interiors. Champagne is a pale neutral between the two, useful in new-build. Inox reads as brushed stainless against tile, concrete and contemporary schemes. Black is matt, for dark timber and black ironmongery. Every finish ships with black rubber — the insert colour does not change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation, use and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to length with a metal-cutting blade and file the end smooth. Pull both rubber strips out from one end to expose the fixing holes. Sit the nosing on the tread, check it is straight and flush, then mark through the holes and drill — match the bit and depth to the plug supplied and to what you are fixing into, as timber, screed and concrete differ. Fit the plugs, drive the screws, press the strips back in. Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent; abrasive pads and solvents dull an anodised finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this on outdoor steps?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nInternal and covered external steps are the sensible limit. Anodised aluminium resists corrosion, but no weathering rating is published for this profile and the rubber is not specified for full exposure. For open outdoor steps, use a nosing rated for external use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many fixings come with each length?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe manufacturer specifies a set of four plugs and screws. The quantity supplied with the 1.8m and 2.7m bars is not published for this line, so on a long run budget for a few extra rather than assuming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it work on carpeted stairs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes — fixed to the timber beneath with the carpet trimmed back to the nose, or over a trimmed edge. At 20mm it is shallow enough not to create a pronounced lip. On thick underlay, check it still sits flat before drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the rubber strips be replaced if they wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThey pull out and press back in, so in principle yes. We do not stock them separately and no replacement part number is published for this profile, so treat the inserts as part of the nosing rather than a serviceable part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the slip rating?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNone is published for this profile.

The step edge needs to be sound and reasonably square — patch repair any spalled or crumbling nosings first, or the profile will bridge the gap instead of bedding down.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need adhesive as well as screws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNot always. Adhesive alone suits light domestic traffic on a clean, dry, level edge. Screws alone suit timber and steel. For public buildings, external steps and anything carrying trolleys or heavy footfall, use both — the adhesive stops water tracking underneath and the screws carry the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I cut it to length?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eA jigsaw with a tungsten carbide blade, or an angle grinder with a diamond disc. GRP dust is abrasive and irritant, so cut outdoors or with extraction and wear a mask, goggles and gloves. Cut slightly long and offer the piece up before final trimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich colour should I choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eMatch the contrast to the step, not to your taste. Yellow reads strongest against dark or grey concrete and is the usual choice for schools, hospitals and public buildings. Black suits pale stone and low-key commercial entrances. Black and yellow hazard stripe is the industrial convention for factories, warehouses and plant access.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it survive a British winter outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYes. GRP does not rust, rot or absorb water, so frost, road salt and standing water do not degrade it the way they attack steel or timber. The gritted surface works wet as well as dry, which is the point of specifying it on external steps in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I replace just one damaged nosing later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Each step is a separate piece, so a single damaged length can be lifted and replaced without disturbing the ones either side. Keep a spare length from the original order — colours can vary slightly between production batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering \u0026amp; Delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEvery length and colour is listed as its own option, so you order exactly what the job needs rather than buying a fixed pack. Lengths over 1.2m ship on a long-length service.
