Aluminium Stair Nosing – 40mm x 20mm x 900mm
Wide Grooved Anti-Slip Anodised Stair Edge Profile
Protect exposed step edges and improve grip with our 40mm x 20mm Aluminium Stair Nosing. Manufactured from durable anodised aluminium, this profile features a wide grooved tread surface designed to provide additional traction at the front of the step.
The 40mm top section provides useful coverage across the stair edge, while the 20mm front face helps protect vulnerable corners from everyday wear, chipping and minor impact damage. Its wide grooved design creates a practical anti-slip surface without requiring a separate rubber insert.
Suitable for compatible ceramic tile, wood and laminate stair installations, the profile is supplied in a convenient 900mm length and is available in Silver, Gold and Champagne anodised finishes.
For flexible installation, the nosing includes pre-drilled holes for screw fixing, with screws and plugs supplied. It can also be bonded using a suitable adhesive where this method is compatible with the stair substrate.
