WHY CHOOSE THIS BLACK GRP STAIR NOSING
This black 55mm Γ 55mm GRP stair nosing provides the same certified anti-slip performance and 10+ year service life as the yellow version β 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 Γ 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 β suitable for industrial chemical environments, marine applications and exposed external stairs where aluminium nosings would corrode.

Works a treat. I installed these at the public library entrance to replace some old ones, and theyre definitely proving to be a wise investment. Compared to other alternatives we considered, this stair nosing offers both solid grip and fantastic durability. Its handled everything from drizzles on these stone steps to the steady footfall of patrons without any fuss, affirming that sometimes you really do get great value for money.

Needed a safe solution for the lighthouse entryway on our property, especially given its expose to high wind areas. The 3mm fitting works nicely across the concrete surface, providing just enough grip without compromising the aesthetic of such an iconic site. Happy to report its been holding up brilliantly against all sorts of coastal weather for over a year now!

Came right on time and laid it down on my apartment stairs since they get quite slippery. This stair nosing is solid, especially through rainy weather β no slipping worries anymore! For the price, its handled the foot traffic with ease, feels like money well spent.

Wasnt sure at first about trying these but ordered a batch to kit out the office emergency exits. Delivery was surprisingly prompt, and everything arrived in great shape without any missing parts. Fitting the stair nosing was dead easy; snapped them onto each step with minimal hassle. Theyβve really held up well against the rainy weather here in Sheffield, showing no sign of wear after months of foot traffic!

Put it in down at the dock and its held up really well, even with all the grit and grease. Six months on, no signs of wear despite being walked over day in, day out by a crew of burly blokes. Would definitely get more if we extend the walkway further.

Compact and robust out of the packaging. Needed a reliable stair nosing for our busy library entrance, and this one fits the bill. Straightforward to cut and shape on site; handled my power tools like a champ without any fuss. Once in place, it did not budge even with constant foot traffic. Will definitely hold up well given what its made from.

Got this for sprucing up the industrial staircase in our warehouse. The stair nosing really brings a neat, finished look to each step while holding its own against the muck and grease that inevitably gathers. Arrived ahead of schedule and came with minimal fuss packaging which I appreciate during busy workdays!
