Description
Retrofit Flexible PVC Stair Nosing – Bevelled Edge Anti-Slip Step Edging
Upgrade the safety and appearance of any staircase with our Retrofit Flexible PVC Stair Nosing. Designed with a precision-engineered bevelled edge profile, this stair nosing eliminates trip hazards at step edges while providing a clean, professional finish. Ideal for both residential and commercial applications, it installs quickly and securely over existing stairs without the need for specialist tools.
Manufactured from high-quality flexible PVC, this stair nosing is built to withstand heavy foot traffic and daily wear. The ribbed anti-slip tread surface significantly improves grip and traction, helping to prevent slips and falls on indoor staircases — particularly important in homes, offices, schools, and public buildings.

Installation Guide
Installation is straightforward using contact adhesive. For best results on terrazzo or ceramic tile surfaces, lightly sand the surface to remove any glaze or wax coating before bonding. On steel surfaces, abrade the surface to ensure a strong, lasting adhesion. Cut to length using a sharp knife, tin snips, or a fine-toothed saw. Press firmly into position and allow the adhesive to cure fully before allowing foot traffic.
Available in two lengths to suit single steps or full staircase runs. Sold per piece.
