Professional Installation Guide for Optimal Performance

Step 1 – Surface Preparation: Thoroughly clean the step edge, removing all dust, debris, and contaminants. Ensure the existing floor covering is securely adhered and level. For carpet installations, trim pile flush with the step edge to create a clean transition surface.

Step 2 – Measurement and Cutting: Measure the exact width of your staircase and mark the 2.7m profile accordingly. Use a fine-toothed saw or professional cutting tool to achieve clean, square cuts. Deburr all cut edges with a file to ensure safe handling and professional appearance.

Step 3 – Dry Fitting: Position the stair nosing on the step edge without adhesive to verify correct fit and alignment. Check that the anti-slip insert sits flush with the tread surface and that the profile covers the step edge completely. Make any necessary adjustments before proceeding.

Step 4 – Adhesive Application: Apply a continuous bead of high-quality construction adhesive suitable for aluminium and your specific floor covering type. Follow manufacturer recommendations for adhesive selection based on substrate materials and expected traffic levels.

Step 5 – Profile Installation: Carefully position the stair nosing onto the prepared edge, pressing firmly to ensure complete adhesive contact. Use a clean cloth to remove any excess adhesive immediately. Verify alignment remains correct before adhesive begins to cure.

Step 6 – Securing and Curing: For enhanced security in high-traffic applications, consider supplementary mechanical fixings through pre-drilled holes. Allow adhesive to cure fully according to manufacturer specifications before permitting foot traffic – typically 24 hours for optimal bond strength.

Step 7 – Final Inspection: Once cured, inspect the installation for secure adhesion, proper alignment, and professional appearance. Verify the anti-slip insert provides consistent traction across the full width and that no sharp edges are exposed.

Maintenance Protocols for Long-Term Performance

Daily Cleaning: Remove surface dirt and debris using standard sweeping or vacuuming procedures. The aluminium surface integrates seamlessly with your existing floor maintenance routines, requiring no special equipment or techniques.

Weekly Deep Cleaning: Clean the profile and anti-slip insert using a damp mop with pH-neutral cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that may damage the anti-slip insert material. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely.

Monthly Inspection: Examine the stair nosing for secure adhesion, checking that no edges have lifted or separated from the substrate. Inspect the anti-slip insert for wear or damage, particularly in high-traffic areas. Address any issues promptly to maintain safety performance.

Quarterly Assessment: Conduct a comprehensive evaluation of slip resistance, visual contrast, and overall condition. Document findings to support compliance audits and maintenance records. Plan any necessary repairs or replacements to ensure continuous safety protection.

Annual Professional Review: Engage qualified safety professionals to assess stair nosing performance against current UK Building Regulations. Update maintenance protocols based on evolving standards and manufacturer recommendations to optimize lifecycle performance.
