Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stair nosing be used outdoors?

Yes, the profile can be used externally when paired with the Exterior Grip inserts (Brimstone or Coal), which are designed to offer reliable slip resistance in outdoor conditions.

How is the stair nosing fixed to the steps?

The nosing is typically screw-fixed through pre-drilled countersunk holes into the stair substrate. The anti-slip insert is then fitted over the channel to conceal fixings and provide a continuous grip surface. Always follow appropriate site-specific fixing methods.

Can the stair nosing be cut to size on site?

Yes, the aluminium profile can be cut to the required step width using suitable metal-cutting tools. Any cut edges should be de-burred and cleaned before installation for a neat and safe finish.
