Stair nosings Sydney homes and commercial buildings need protect the step edge from wear and impact. A stair nosing is the edge profile fitted to the front of a step. It also gives a visible edge and helps prevent slips and trips. We supply and install stair nosings for vinyl, carpet, timber and tiled stairs.
Why stair nosings Sydney buildings need
- Safety: first, a contrasting, slip-resistant edge makes steps easier to see, which matters in schools, aged care, medical and public buildings.
- Durability: also, the nosing protects the step edge, because it takes more wear than any other part of the stair.
- Neat finish: in addition, the covering stays fixed at the edge, so it does not lift or fray.
- Easy replacement: finally, you can replace a worn nosing without redoing the whole stair covering.
Stair nosings Sydney options
We supply aluminium, PVC and rubber nosings in many colours and profiles, with or without slip-resistant inserts. Then we recommend options to suit the stair, the covering and your budget. For background, see stair nosing on Wikipedia.
Choosing a stair nosing profile
The right profile depends on the stair covering and the people who use it. For instance, a school stair needs a high-contrast edge, while a home may need a slimmer, neater finish. Also, we match the nosing height to the covering, so nobody trips on a lip. As a result, the finished stair looks tidy and works safely.
Installation
First, we measure each step. Next, we cut the nosings to length and fix them securely. Finally, we finish the covering around them. We can fit nosings with new vinyl or carpet tile stair coverings, or to existing stairs.
