Black GRP Anti-Slip Stair Nosing — Full Specification

This black 55mm × 55mm GRP stair nosing provides the same certified anti-slip performance and 10+ year service life as the yellow version — in a discreet black finish suited to contemporary interiors, industrial settings, marine environments and anywhere the high-visibility yellow of DDA-compliance nosings would be aesthetically or practically inappropriate.

The 55mm × 55mm equal L-profile covers both the step tread (55mm horizontal) and the step riser (55mm vertical), providing comprehensive step edge protection with impregnated quartz grit anti-slip surface on the tread face. The same GRP construction makes it fully corrosion-proof and UV-stable — suitable for industrial chemical environments, marine applications and exposed external stairs where aluminium nosings would corrode.

  • External fire escape stairs — permanent grip without high-visibility yellow marking

How to Install

  1. Cut to length. Mark and cut with an angle grinder and diamond disc. Wear PPE.
  2. Clean and prepare. Remove dust and grease from the step surface.
  3. Fix: Bond with structural polyurethane adhesive, or screw fix at 200-300mm centres with stainless steel screws.
  4. Repeat per step. Work from bottom upward for cleanest installation sequence.
