Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the correct length of stair nosing?

Measure the full width of your stair tread and select the nearest standard length that is equal to or slightly longer than the width. The nosing can then be cut back on site to achieve a precise fit.

Which colour should I select for best visibility?

For maximum visibility, choose a colour that contrasts clearly with your existing floor covering. Lighter inserts such as yellow or white work well against dark floor finishes, while darker inserts such as black or midnight grey suit lighter surfaces.

Can this nosing be used on existing stairs as part of a refurbishment?

Yes, this nosing is suitable for both new build and refurbishment projects. It can be mechanically fixed to existing timber, concrete or metal steps, provided the substrate is sound, level and suitably prepared.
