Installation Guide
Adhesive or Tape Installation
- Measure the width of the stair carefully.
- Mark the required length on the 1.18m PVC profile.
- Cut the stair nosing neatly to size using a suitable cutting tool.
- Allow the profile to reach normal room temperature before installation.
- If the PVC is cold or stiff, gently warm it where appropriate to improve flexibility.
- Make sure the stair surface is sound, level, clean and dry.
- Remove all dust, grease, dirt and loose material.
- Test-position the profile over the stair edge before applying adhesive.
-
Apply compatible assembly adhesive or adhesive tape to the upper section only.
- Do not bond the lower part of the profile.
- Position the stair nosing accurately over the step edge.
- Press the upper section firmly against the tread.
- Check that the profile sits neatly and consistently along the stair edge.
- Maintain suitable pressure where required while the adhesive begins to set.
- Allow the adhesive to cure fully according to the manufacturer's instructions before using the staircase.
Keeping the lower section unbonded allows the flexibility and natural movement described in the supplied installation guidance. Always use adhesive or tape compatible with both the PVC profile and the stair substrate.
