Unlike battery-powered alternatives, this maintenance-free solution delivers reliable performance year after year.

Manufactured to exceed UK safety standards, each profile features precision-engineered anti-slip grooves that maintain grip even in wet, icy, or snow-covered conditions. The heavy-duty aluminium construction withstands extreme weather, heavy foot traffic, and commercial use whilst maintaining its protective properties and aesthetic appeal.

Professional-Grade Benefits for Maximum Protection

Superior Photoluminescent Technology
Advanced glow-in-the-dark insert absorbs natural and artificial light throughout the day, delivering brilliant visibility for 8+ hours in complete darkness. No electricity, batteries, or maintenance required – just reliable, eco-friendly illumination that enhances safety during evening hours, power outages, and emergency evacuations.

Heavy-Duty Aluminium Construction
Premium-grade aluminium profile engineered for extreme durability and longevity. Resists corrosion, rust, and degradation from UV exposure, salt air, and harsh UK weather conditions. Maintains structural integrity under heavy commercial foot traffic and wheeled equipment whilst remaining lightweight for straightforward installation.

Exceptional Anti-Slip Performance
Precision-milled grooves and textured surface deliver outstanding slip resistance in all weather conditions. Tested to R13 anti-slip rating, providing maximum grip during rain, ice, snow, and frost.

Comparison: Our Glow Stair Nosing vs Standard Alternatives

Perfect Applications for Glow-in-the-Dark Stair Nosing

Commercial Properties: Office buildings, retail centres, warehouses, factories, hotels, restaurants, care homes, schools, universities, hospitals, and public facilities requiring 24/7 safety compliance and reduced liability exposure.

Residential Properties: Front entrance steps, rear garden access, basement stairs, garage entries, decking transitions, and any outdoor stairway where evening visibility and slip prevention protect family members and visitors.

Industrial Facilities: Loading bays, platform access, machinery steps, mezzanine stairs, external fire escapes, and high-traffic pedestrian routes where worker safety and regulatory compliance are paramount.

Public Spaces: Parks, community centres, sports facilities, transport hubs, car parks, pedestrian bridges, and municipal buildings where public safety obligations and accessibility requirements demand professional-grade protection.

Emergency Routes: Fire escape stairs, evacuation pathways, emergency exits, and critical access routes where visibility during power failures and emergency situations can save lives.

Professional Installation Guide

Step 1 – Surface Preparation: Thoroughly clean step edges removing all dirt, debris, oil, and loose material. Ensure surface is completely dry before proceeding. For optimal adhesion, lightly abrade smooth surfaces with 80-grit sandpaper.

Step 2 – Accurate Measurement: Measure step width precisely and cut nosing profile to exact length using a fine-tooth hacksaw or mitre saw with aluminium cutting blade. Deburr cut edges with fine file for professional finish.

Step 3 – Positioning and Marking: Position nosing flush with step edge, ensuring photoluminescent insert faces upward and forward. Mark fixing hole positions through pre-drilled holes using pencil or marker.

Step 4 – Pilot Hole Drilling: Drill pilot holes at marked positions using appropriate drill bit for substrate material. For concrete, use 6mm masonry bit; for wood, use 3mm wood bit. Ensure holes are perpendicular to surface.

Step 5 – Secure Fixing: Insert appropriate fixings (supplied screws and plugs for concrete; wood screws for timber) and tighten progressively from centre outward to ensure even contact across entire profile length. Avoid over-tightening which may distort aluminium.

Step 6 – Final Inspection: Verify nosing is securely fixed with no movement, sits flush against step edge, and photoluminescent insert is clean and undamaged. Test anti-slip surface and remove any installation debris.

Maintenance and Care Instructions

Maintain optimal performance with minimal effort. Clean photoluminescent insert quarterly using mild detergent solution and soft brush to remove accumulated dirt that may reduce light absorption. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry naturally.

Inspect fixings annually, particularly in high-traffic areas, and tighten if necessary to maintain secure attachment. Check for any damage from impacts or extreme weather events and replace affected sections promptly to maintain continuous protection.

The aluminium profile requires no special treatment but benefits from occasional cleaning to maintain professional appearance. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal brushes that may scratch the anodised finish. The photoluminescent technology maintains effectiveness for the product's entire service life without degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the glow-in-the-dark effect last each night?
After full daylight charging, the photoluminescent insert glows brightly for 8+ hours in complete darkness. The intensity gradually diminishes but remains visible throughout the night. Even brief exposure to artificial lighting during evening hours refreshes the glow effect.

Will this stair nosing work in shaded areas with limited sunlight?
Yes, the photoluminescent technology charges from both natural and artificial light sources. Areas with limited direct sunlight still receive sufficient ambient light for effective charging. Indoor lighting, street lamps, and security lights all contribute to the charging process.

Is the anti-slip surface effective in icy conditions?
Absolutely. The precision-engineered grooves and textured surface maintain exceptional grip even when covered with ice, snow, or frost. The R13 anti-slip rating represents maximum performance under the most challenging conditions encountered across UK winters.

Can I install this on curved or spiral staircases?
The rigid aluminium profile is designed for straight step edges. For curved applications, consider cutting shorter sections that can follow the curve more closely, or contact our technical team for guidance on specialist curved profile options for complex installations.

What fixings are included and what surfaces can I install on?
Each profile includes comprehensive fixing kit with screws and plugs suitable for concrete, masonry, and wood surfaces. The pre-drilled holes accommodate standard fixings, and the installation guide provides specific recommendations for different substrate materials including metal and composite decking.

How do I clean the nosing without damaging the glow effect?
Use mild detergent solution and soft brush or cloth to clean both the aluminium profile and photoluminescent insert. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or pressure washers that may damage the surface. Regular gentle cleaning maintains optimal light absorption and glow performance.

Does the product comply with UK Building Regulations?
Yes, our glow-in-the-dark stair nosing exceeds requirements under UK Building Regulations Part K (Protection from falling) and Part M (Access to and use of buildings). The high-contrast edge demarcation and anti-slip properties support Health & Safety Executive guidelines for workplace safety and public access routes.
