- Ensure that the stair surface is level and flat.
- Select the most suitable cartridge adhesive for interior/exterior usage.
- Ensure stairs are clean and free of debris, dust, grease and oil.
- Check the stair is dry and free from dampness
- Select the nosing carrier and check for the correct fit on the required stair.
- Do not apply the insert material at this stage.
- Carefully mark through the drill holes, ensuring that the nosing is tight against the riser, carpet or vinyl.
- Remove nosing from the stair, and drill and plug the tread ready for installation.
- Apply the adhesive to the underside of the nosing and replace on the step.
- Remove the nosing and allow the adhesive to cure for the recommended time.
- Replace and refit the nosing carrier to the stair tread, and screw down firmly.
- Ensure that the screws are flush to avoid “show through” on the insert material.
- Peel back the double sided tape, ensuring no dust or fibre is allowed onto the surface.
- Place insert material (smooth side down) into the channel from both ends, and smooth into the middle of the profile.

| Maintaining the stair nosings and trims |
Click here for Installation |
To maintain the appearance and performance of our stair nosings to the highest standards, we recommend the following maintenance regime:
- Avoid acids, alkalis, strong detergents and any type of polish that may reduce the anti-slip properties of the nosing.
- Weekly cleaning is advised, but a more frequent regime needs to be considered in heavy traffic areas.
- Remove immediately any build up of dirt and grease that may cause a hazard.
- Clean inserts with a mild detergent diluted in water.
- Carefully wipe over the nosing with a damp cloth and then wipe dry with a clean dry cloth.
- The aluminium can be lightly buffed using a suitable burnished steel wool.
