Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stair nosing be fitted on existing stairs?

Yes, the PVC stair nosing can be installed on most existing internal stairs with suitable smooth floor coverings. Ensure the substrate is sound, level and clean before fixing, and cut the nosing to the required length for a neat finish.

Does the product come with LED lighting included?

No, the stair nosing includes an integrated channel designed to accept compatible LED strip or photoluminescent inserts, which are supplied separately. This allows you to choose the most appropriate lighting specification for your project.

Which colour should I choose for best visibility?

For maximum visibility, select a colour that contrasts clearly with the surrounding floor finish, such as yellow, white or a light grey against a darker floor, or black or midnight grey against a lighter surface. This helps to define the step edge and supports compliance with good practice guidance on visual contrast.
