Aluminum Stair Nosing – Heavy-Duty Stair Edge Protector
Protect stair edges from everyday wear while creating a clean, finished appearance with this heavy-duty aluminum stair nosing. Made from durable satin anodized aluminum, it provides a strong protective covering for stair edges while helping improve traction with its fluted, non-slip surface.
Each stair nose measures 4-1/2 inches across the top with a 1-1/2-inch vertical drop and is available in 32-inch and 36-inch lengths.
The wide top surface provides generous coverage over the stair tread, while the vertical face wraps over the edge to help protect an area that commonly receives impacts, scuffs, scratches, and repeated foot traffic.
Where to Use This Stair Nosing
This aluminum stair edge protector is suitable for residential and commercial stair applications where a durable finished edge is needed. It can be used on existing stairs during repairs or remodeling and on new installations where additional stair-edge protection is desired.
It is a practical choice for interior or appropriately protected stairways, entry steps, workshops, offices, retail environments, apartment buildings, utility areas, and other high-traffic locations, subject to the requirements of the installation surface and environment.
4-1/2" Wide Top for Greater Stair Coverage
Unlike narrow stair-edge trims, this stair nosing features a substantial 4-1/2-inch top surface. The additional coverage helps protect more of the stair tread while creating a professional finished appearance.
The 1-1/2-inch drop extends over the front edge of the step, helping shield one of the areas most vulnerable to wear and damage.
Fluted Surface for Added Traction
Fine grooves across the walking surface create a fluted anti-slip profile designed to provide additional traction underfoot.
The textured surface makes the stair nosing particularly useful in areas where a smooth stair edge could otherwise become slippery while maintaining a clean architectural appearance.
Durable Satin Anodized Aluminum
Constructed from strong aluminum with a satin anodized finish, this stair nosing is designed for durability and resistance to everyday scratching and wear.
Aluminum also provides excellent strength without the excessive weight of heavier materials, making the profile easier to handle, cut, and install.
Cut to Fit Your Stair
Choose the length closest to your application:
32" Length – ideal for narrower stair treads or applications requiring less trimming.
36" Length – ideal for standard-width stairs or installations where additional material is required.
The aluminum profile can be cut to the exact required length during installation using an appropriate aluminum-cutting tool.
Flexible Installation
The stair nosing is supplied without pre-drilled mounting holes, providing flexibility for different installation methods.
It can be installed using a suitable construction adhesive when appropriate for the stair material, or holes can be drilled into the aluminum profile when mechanical fasteners are preferred.
Always select fasteners or adhesives appropriate for the stair substrate and application.
