  • Retail and hospitality environments — shops, hotels, cafes, and leisure facilities.

  • Public buildings, health centres, libraries, and civic facilities requiring defined, safe step edges.
  • Refurbishment and new build projects where a premium, coordinated stair finish is specified.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stair nosing be cut to fit narrower stairs?

Yes. The 3.22m (3220mm) stock length is designed to be cut down on site to the exact width of each step using standard metal cutting tools.

What floor coverings is this nosing compatible with?

This profile is designed for use with vinyl, LVT, wood, and other hard floor coverings. For carpeted stairs, a nosing profile specifically designed for carpet or carpet tiles is recommended.

How is the nosing fixed to the step?

It is fixed using countersunk screws through pre-drilled holes in the profile. A suitable adhesive may be used as a supplementary fixing depending on the substrate and floor covering.

What is the difference between a rake back and a standard stair nosing?

A rake back (ramp back) profile has an angled rear edge that follows the slope of the riser, providing a neater fit against the vertical face of the step and a smoother transition underfoot compared to a square-back profile.
