Frequently Asked Questions
Can this stair nosing be used on existing timber stairs?
Yes, it can be fitted to existing timber stairs, provided the substrate is sound and level. The nosing should be securely fixed using appropriate screws and, where required, a compatible adhesive.
Which finish should I choose for a more traditional look?
Antique brass and antique bronze finishes tend to suit more traditional or period-style interiors, while satin brass and polished brass are often preferred in contemporary or formal settings.
Is this nosing suitable for very heavy-traffic public areas?
The solid brass construction is durable, but suitability for very heavy-traffic public areas will depend on the specific project and any applicable regulations. For high-intensity use, additional slip-resistance measures or specialist profiles may be advisable.
