Nosing

For exceptional stair definition

Did you know that the front edge of the treads is known as the stair edging or stair nosing in Melbourne? The stair nose is actually an essential feature of the staircase, as it helps to prevent people ascending or descending the steps from tripping or slipping. Stair edge nosing also functions as a decorative feature that lets one tread to flow into the next.

There is actually more than one type of nosing for stairs to choose from. The most unobtrusive option is a no overhang nosing, which sits flush with the riser below. For something a little more eye catching, our pencil round nosing or square nosing will perfectly frame each of your treads.
