The installer should still confirm that the supplied fixings are appropriate for the underlying stair material. Additional plugs or alternative screws may be required depending on whether the nosing is being fitted over timber, board, masonry or another substrate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChecking the Profile Measurements Before Ordering\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe supplied product information lists an overall width of 38.5mm and an overall height of 19.5mm.

Suitability will depend on the thickness of the floor covering and the dimensions of the exposed stair edge. Measure the tread, front drop and finished covering carefully to ensure the profile sits securely without creating an uncomfortable raised transition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDoes the grooved surface make the stair nosing anti-slip?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grooves add texture to the aluminium surface and make the front of the tread more noticeable underfoot. However, no tested slip-resistance rating has been provided in the supplied information. It should therefore be described as a grooved or textured profile rather than as a certified anti-slip stair nosing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAre the installation screws included?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYes, fixing screws are supplied with the stair nosing. Before installation, check whether they are suitable for the material beneath the trim. Timber stairs may require a different fixing method from masonry or composite steps, and suitable plugs may be needed where the screws cannot be fixed directly into the substrate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCan the 900mm aluminium profile be shortened?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAluminium stair profiles can generally be shortened using an appropriate metal-cutting tool and a suitable blade. The trim should be measured and marked accurately before cutting. Any cut edge should be smoothed carefully to remove sharp burrs and create a clean finish against the side of the staircase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat do the 38.5mm x 19.5mm and 35mm x 15mm measurements mean?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe item data lists an overall width of 38.5mm and height of 19.5mm, while the model description refers to a 35mm x 15mm profile. These measurements may relate to separate external and fitting sections. Because no technical drawing has been supplied, compare both sets of measurements with the intended stair edge before purchase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIs the matt finish suitable for modern interiors?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe matt aluminium finish provides a restrained appearance with less reflection than a polished metal surface. It can complement contemporary wood, neutral carpet and modern hallway finishes. The final appearance will depend on the surrounding flooring, stair colour and how evenly the profile is cut and installed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubber Fit Floors","offers":[{"title":"900mm x 19.5mm x 38.5mm","offer_id":54478700577114,"sku":null,"price":22.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/6516\/4890\/files\/s-l1600_b45c178d-a98f-4588-bef8-7ad61297ae11.webp?v=1785151707","url":"https:\/\/www.rubberfitfloors.co.uk\/products\/stair-nosing-edge-trim-aluminium-step-stair-nose-for-wood-carpet-grooved-finish","provider":"Rubber Fit Floors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
