Why Stair Nosings Are Essential

Stair nosings protect the leading edge of each step — the area most vulnerable to wear and most likely to cause slips, trips and falls. A high-quality stair nosing improves visibility of each step, provides anti-slip grip, protects the stair structure from damage, and helps your premises comply with UK building regulations and DDA/Equality Act requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a stair nosing?

A stair nosing is a protective strip fitted to the leading edge of a stair tread. It protects the stair from wear and provides a visible anti-slip surface to help prevent slips and falls. Required by building regulations in commercial applications.

What size stair nosing do I need?

Stair nosing sizes are measured by riser height × tread cover. Common sizes: 25×25mm for domestic use, 50×50mm for commercial stairs, 71×55mm for deeper commercial treads. Measure your stair edge depth to find the right fit.

Are stair nosings a legal requirement in the UK?

In commercial and public buildings, stair nosings are required under Building Regulations (Part K), BS 8300:2018, and the Equality Act 2010. They must contrast visually with the stair surface and provide an anti-slip surface.

Can stair nosings be cut to length?

Yes — all our aluminium, GRP, and rubber stair nosing profiles can be cut to any custom length. Standard stock lengths are 1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, and 2.5m. For bespoke orders, contact us on 02031510153.
