Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stair nosing be used on both timber and concrete stairs?

Yes, the nosing can be installed on timber or concrete stairs, provided suitable fixings are used for the specific substrate. Always ensure the surface is sound, level and clean before installation.

Which finish should I choose for my project?

The finish is largely a design choice. Polished brass offers a bright, reflective look, satin brass provides a softer, brushed appearance, while antique brass and antique bronze give a more traditional, aged effect. Consider matching to your existing door furniture, handrails or other metalwork.

Is the serrated surface suitable for areas exposed to moisture?

The serrated surface improves grip compared with a smooth brass edge, but it does not make the nosing fully slip-proof. In areas where stairs may become wet, additional measures such as appropriate floor coverings, cleaning regimes and, where required, further slip-resistant treatments should be considered.
