These steel treadplates are heavy-duty, anti-slip stair nosings designed to improve safety on internal and external steps in demanding commercial environments. Manufactured from robust steel with a durable slip-resistant surface, they clearly define the leading edge of each step while providing long-lasting protection against wear and impact.

Available in 63mm and 115mm widths and in black, yellow or hazard finishes, these treadplates are ideal for upgrading existing stairways in warehouses, factories, car parks, public buildings and access routes. They help to reduce the risk of slips and trips, particularly in high-traffic or wet conditions, and provide clear visual contrast on each step edge.

Product Features

• Durable steel construction for high-impact commercial and industrial use.
• Available in 63mm and 115mm stair nosing widths to suit different step depths and applications.
• Three high-visibility anti-slip finishes: black, yellow and hazard striped for enhanced step-edge contrast.
• Textured, anti-slip surface designed to improve underfoot grip in dry and wet conditions.
• Suitable for internal and external stairs, including concrete, timber and metal substrates.
• Preformed treadplate design for straightforward installation onto existing steps using appropriate fixings and adhesive.
• Corrosion-resistant finish to withstand regular cleaning and heavy foot traffic.

Key Features and Benefits

• Improved safety on stairways by providing a slip-resistant surface on the critical leading edge of each step.
• High-contrast black, yellow and hazard options enhance visibility, helping users identify step boundaries and changes in level.
• Protects underlying stair edges from chipping, erosion and general wear, extending the life of the substrate.
• Ideal for rapid refurbishment of worn or non-compliant steps without the need for major structural work.
• Steel profile offers long service life in busy commercial environments, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
• Versatile sizing (63mm and 115mm) allows consistent treatment of mixed stair dimensions across a site.

Specifications

Applications and Ideal Uses

These steel treadplate stair nosings are suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial stairways where enhanced slip resistance and step-edge definition are required.

• Warehouse, factory and plant staircases exposed to heavy footfall.
• Multi-storey car parks, loading bays and external fire escape stairs.
• Public buildings, schools, hospitals and transport hubs requiring improved stair safety.
• Refurbishment of worn concrete, timber or metal steps to restore safe edges.
• Access steps on service areas, plant rooms and maintenance platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which width should I choose, 63mm or 115mm?

The 63mm option is typically used where only the leading edge of the step requires protection or where the tread depth is limited. The 115mm option provides greater coverage on deeper treads or where a more pronounced anti-slip area and visual contrast are required. Measure your step depth and consider how much of the tread you want the nosing to cover.

Are these treadplates suitable for outdoor stairs?

Yes, the steel treadplates are suitable for both internal and external use when correctly installed onto a sound substrate. For external applications, ensure that the surface is clean, stable and properly drained, and use appropriate corrosion-resistant fixings and adhesive.

Can they be fitted to existing concrete or timber steps?

These stair nosing treadplates can be installed onto most sound concrete, timber or metal steps. The surface should be clean, dry and free from loose material. They are usually fixed with a combination of mechanical fixings and a suitable high-strength adhesive. Always follow appropriate site practices and check compatibility with your chosen fixing method.
