Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stair nosing be cut to size on site?

Yes, the 2.75m length can be cut to suit individual stair widths using appropriate metal cutting tools. Any cut edges should be deburred before installation.

How is the stair nosing fixed to the step?

The profile is typically mechanically fixed through the tread using countersunk screws into suitable plugs or pre-drilled substrates. Fixings should be specified to suit the base material.

Which insert colour should I choose for best visibility?

For improved visibility, choose an insert colour that contrasts clearly with the surrounding floor finish. Hazard, Mid Grey, Dark Grey and Premium Black are popular choices, but the best option will depend on the colour of your flooring and lighting conditions.
