Frequently Asked Questions
Can this stair nosing be fitted to existing stairs during refurbishment projects?
Yes, this PVC anti slip stair nosing is suitable for both new installations and refurbishment work. It can be cut to size and screw fixed onto most existing stair substrates, including timber and concrete, provided the surface is sound, level and properly prepared.
Which colour should I choose for best visibility on my stairs?
For maximum visibility, particularly in dimly lit or high-traffic areas, the yellow tredsafe insert is recommended as it offers strong contrast against most floor finishes. Black, white and dolphin grey tredsafe inserts provide more subtle contrast while still helping to define the step edge.
How do I select the correct length for my staircase?
Measure the width of each step and select the next longest available length (1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m or 3.22m) to allow for cutting down on site. Where possible, choose lengths that minimise the number of joints across the stair width to achieve a neater, more durable installation.
