Stair Nosing VidaXL Aluminium 90 x 50 x 0.2 cm, Silver

Aluminium stair nosing VidaXL 90 x 50 x 0.2 cm in silver provides a durable edge profile designed to protect stair edges, restore worn treads and enhance slip resistance. The anodised-look silver finish gives a neutral appearance that suits many interior styles. Intended for indoor or covered outdoor use, this aluminium profile can be trimmed to length and fixed by screws or appropriate adhesive to wooden, concrete or tiled steps.

Advantages

This stair nosing is made from lightweight yet sturdy aluminium, offering long-term protection against edge wear while keeping installation simple. The profile improves traction at the step edge and conceals damaged or uneven tread fronts, reducing the need for full-step replacement. Its corrosion-resistant surface is suitable for areas where occasional moisture may occur, and the product can be cut on site to match stair dimensions.

Suitable for

• Residential stair renovation on wooden, concrete or tiled steps
• Commercial or light-traffic interiors requiring edge protection
• Covered outdoor stairs where direct exposure to weather is limited
• Projects where a neat silver finish and a slim profile are desired

When it may not be suitable

This aluminium stair nosing is not intended for fully exposed outdoor applications subject to continuous heavy weather, salt spray or high humidity conditions, where more robust stainless steel or specially coated profiles would be preferable. It is also a slim 0.2 cm profile and may not provide the visual or tactile prominence required by some accessibility regulations; verify local standards if compliance is required.

Key specifications

• Material: aluminium
• Finish: silver (anodised-look)
• Overall dimensions: 90 cm (length) x 5 cm (width) x 0.2 cm (thickness)
• Suitable substrates: wood, concrete, ceramic tile
• Fixing methods: screws or construction adhesive
• Use environment: indoor or covered outdoor areas

How to use

Measure and mark the required length of the stair nosing, then cut to size using a fine-toothed saw suitable for aluminium. Prepare the stair edge by cleaning and drying the surface; if using screws, pre-drill holes in the profile and the substrate to avoid deformation. Position the profile and secure it with countersunk screws or apply a suitable construction adhesive along the back of the profile and press firmly into place. Allow adhesive to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions before regular use.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the profile thickness and dimensions meet any local accessibility or building-code requirements
• Check substrate compatibility and choose appropriate screws or adhesive for wood, concrete or tile
• Decide whether a slim 0.2 cm profile provides sufficient visual contrast and slip prevention for your needs
• Ensure the stair location is covered or sheltered if exposed to weather

Usage recommendations

For a secure and long-lasting installation, use corrosion-resistant screws for damp locations and a high-quality flexible construction adhesive on tile or concrete. Pre-drill both profile and substrate to prevent cracking or deformation when fixing. Clean the surface regularly to maintain slip resistance and inspect fixings periodically, especially in higher-traffic areas.
