Frequently Asked Questions
Can this stair nosing be used outdoors?
Yes, this aluminium stair nosing is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use when correctly installed onto a stable, sound substrate. For external applications, ensure appropriate fixings and sealants are used and that the nosing is kept clean to maintain slip resistance.
Which colour should I choose for best visibility?
Yellow offers the highest level of visual contrast on most stair finishes and is often chosen for areas requiring clear step edge definition. Black and ice grey provide a more subtle appearance while still offering improved grip and visibility compared with an unprotected step edge.
How is the stair nosing fixed in place?
The nosing is typically installed using countersunk screws and, where appropriate, a compatible construction adhesive. The exact fixing method will depend on the substrate and site conditions. Always follow relevant installation guidance and ensure the surface is clean, level and secure before fitting.
