Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cut the 2.44m stair nosing to size?
The stair nosing can be cut to length on site using a fine-toothed hacksaw or suitable metal-cutting saw. Measure each step carefully, mark the profile, then cut and de-burr the edges before installation.
Can this stair nosing be used with carpet and vinyl floor coverings?
Yes, the square profile is suitable for use with a variety of floor coverings, including carpet, vinyl and laminate. Ensure the floor covering is securely fixed and trimmed neatly to meet the back edge of the nosing for a safe, tidy finish.
Are the PVC inserts replaceable if they become worn?
In most installations, the PVC insert can be removed and replaced if it becomes worn or damaged. This allows you to refresh the appearance or change the insert colour without replacing the entire aluminium profile.
