Anti-slip GRP stair tread covers for concrete, metal and wood steps
These GRP stair tread covers fit over existing steps to add a high-grip, gritted surface across the tread. Moulded from glass reinforced polyester with a resin-coated grit finish, they are BS 7976-2 pendulum tested and suit heavy-footfall stairways indoors and out - on concrete, metal or wood. Each cover is 345mm deep with a 55mm nosing edge and 4mm overall thickness, in lengths from 600mm to 3000mm and four colourways.

Installation and care
Screw down with six screws per linear metre, or bond with 85ml of adhesive per linear metre - fixing screws and GRP adhesive are available separately. To clean, a stiff brush shifts everyday dirt; wash tougher marks with warm water and mild detergent, or use a low-pressure washer, taking care around fixings.
