DDA & Accessibility Products - Ramps Stair Nosings & Tactile Indicators

Description

DDA and Accessibility Products

Making a building accessible is a legal duty under the Equality Act 2010, and stairs are where that duty bites hardest. Approved Document M and BS 8300 both set clear expectations: every step edge must be visually distinguishable from the tread, and the surface must be slip resistant in the conditions it will actually face.

This range brings together the products that deliver on those requirements. High-contrast stair nosings in yellow, white, red and light grey provide the visual difference that partially sighted users rely on to judge where each step begins. Anti-slip inserts and GRP tread covers supply the grip. Tactile indicators warn of a level change before it is reached. Access ramps handle transitions that stairs cannot.

The contrast requirement is specific: guidance points to a meaningful difference in light reflectance value between the nosing and the surrounding floor, not simply a different colour. Our LRV contrast calculator can check a proposed combination before you order.

Suitable for schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, retail and any managed premises. UK stock with fast delivery and specification advice available.
