Stair Nosings for Schools – Case Study

Challenge

Ward Flooring were required to fit a Stair Nosing which met both DDA and Equality Act guidelines. Whilst helping to create an attractive and colourful new learning environment for the school’s students.

Solutions

The new Q Range, available in 21 special profiles of Stair Nosing, proved to be the perfect solution. This unique Stair Nosing design proved to be the most suitable solution for installation in Drapers Mills Primary Academy. Owing to its all over tread design, which provides a slip resistant surface from the nose to the back edge, gives the benefit of extra safety when ascending or descending stairs.

The satin etched aluminium riser surface provides the double benefit of being scratch resistant and it inhibits the potential for ‘glare’, which is one of the requirements of the latest BS8300: 2008 and Building Regulation guidelines applicable to stairways in areas of public access.
