To keep the edge of the stair away from chipping or cracking, we may apply aluminum stair edging in order to conform to the category of stairs. To provide stronger and better compatibility, it goes well with three types of external stairs where it has to utilize aluminum Stair Nosing.
It's important to have a weather-resistant material that will provide good grip and traction. Outdoor stairs are exposed to severe summer and winter weather conditions like rain, snow, ice, and extreme heat all of which will accelerate the degradation of an outdoor stair tread. Outdoor stair treads and exterior stair nosing have an anti-slip extruded aluminum base coated with a high-performance abrasive compound that offers the ideal, long-lasting solution for stair treads outdoors and exterior stairs.
Why Use Outdoor Stair Treads?
Stair treads and stair edging are a necessity for exterior steps to protect your employees and customers from slipping and falling down the stairs from rain or snow conditions. In addition to that, well-constructed treads can even protect your stairs from regular wear and tear and the tough condition of the outside world.
What Type of Non-slip Stair Treads are Suitable for Exterior Installation?
You'll have lots of materials that are employed to create stair treads and nosing. Most of them have their own benefits but in places where a lot of traffic occurs like your business, you need to ensure you take advantage of the best materials you can get. So we utilize high quality aluminum to create our treads.
Best Outdoor Non Slip Stair Treads for Winter and Summer Weather?
Stair fall accidents happen yearly, and a few of these slip incidents have been known to result in serious injury or even death. As such, facility managers industrial, residential, municipal or private should be cognizant of the danger and select stair treads suitable for their location. You have a lot of materials to select from Aluminum Stair Nosing, Rubber or Carpet stair treads and mats.
Aluminum Stair Treads
Aircraft-quality extruded aluminum and precision-made abrasive material used in our aluminum stair nosing and treads also bear up well in harsh weather conditions and temperature.
These are a better product to use on stair slipping. They're even convenient replacements once they're worn down due to movement of feet or the climate.
Anti-slip Paint And Coating
These offer non-slip paint in a variety of colors and abrasions, but honestly, this is not the best idea for exterior stair treads either. Paint is extremely susceptible to getting snow- and ice-covered, negating its non-slip traction benefit. Due to this, non-slip stair treads are more sought after for exterior installation.
Outdoor Rubber Stair Tread
While vinyl and rubber Stair Treads might appear to be a good fit for outside stairs, a rubber treaded stair will not perform under harsh weather conditions such as aluminum. Rubber is deformed and softened in heat and hardened and extremely stiff in cold temperatures. Both of these will affect wear-and-tear as well as the lifespan of the rubber outdoor stair tread.
