‘Tick Tock’... Introducing the 60 minute Quantum “Flexyfixing” Stair Nosing solution

‘Tick Tock’... Introducing the 60 minute Quantum “Flexyfixing” Stair Nosing solution

More Lean help for our customers (and our customers’ customers)

Minimise waste on site; of time and material and money

Limited access and extensive levels of disruption have long been key challenges in the refurbishment of commercial and office buildings. Quantum Flooring has, in conjunction with flooring adhesives specialists Rewmar Ltd recently developed an all-in-one solution to these problems in the form of its Flexyfix system.

The Lean system maximises a flexible high grab and rapid cure time that is delivered by Flexyfix. This enables the contractor to open the staircase to pedestrian traffic 60 minutes after the last Stair Nosing has been installed and checked by the contractor. This is a major benefit where disruption levels need to be kept to a minimum and frequently enables work that would normally be scheduled for overnight or out of office hours to take place during the normal working day.  Mess is also minimised because there is no dust caused by drilling and any adhesive smears can be easily cleaned off.

A number of contractors have commented that speed and accuracy are the biggest benefits delivering both convenience and huge cost savings as the use of Flexyfix makes the use of screws and drilling redundant. The trouble free fitting method takes less than 90 seconds to install a single Stair Nosing.

In a case study at a high street bank (see Quantum website) using the Flexyfix fitting method, “Flexyfixing”, work that was scheduled to take place over a weekend was completed in under one hour. Only one fitter was required during office hours making a grand saving of more than £300 in labour charges alone, plus another £80- £100 pounds in drill bits giving a savings in the order of £400.

The ”Flexyfixing” system revolutionises Stair Nose installation and can be used with all of Quantum Flooring’s products, especially Q range. Key features of Q range include a unique edge to edge tread that provides a slip resistant surface for the entire depth of the Stair Nosing tread. Another important feature is the scratch resistant material ensuring the Nosing is easy to maintain. Also, the satin etched riser helps to meet Equality Act safety guidelines.


Q range has a varied colour range and is manufactured using ‘LEAN’ principles which guarantee efficiency and make the product an ideal match for the quick and easy Flexyfix system. Please contact Quantum Flooring on 0161 627 4222 or visit www.quantumflooring.co.uk/qrange for more information.

Quantum Flooring Case Study

Flooring Contractor - Mick Shea Flooring
End User - Bradley Hall Golf Club

Challenge
Prestigious Bradley Hall Golf is located over 60 areas of picturesque parkland in central Yorkshire. Golf was first played here in 1906 and considerable investment was spent converting the old house into an outstanding club house.

Recently the golf club had a major building upgrade but still retained the quality that had been set up all those years ago. As part of this refurbishment the central entrance of the golf club required an impressive eye catching finish to their mature style Victorian staircase with a unique large Bullnose curved bottom step.


Solution
After visiting the golf club and discussing with the client the requested brass finishing proved too costly, however Specialist gold anodising still managed to provide a premium decorative finish for the golf club staircase, as well as making the staircase extremely durable and long lasting for heavy footfall.

Quantum Flooring and the flooring contractor worked closely with the customer to provide a perfect alternative in the form of the HB157 Heavy Duty Stair Nosing range. The HB157 Stair Nosing profile is an extremely stylish brass effect Stair Nosing with a slip resistant tread material that makes the steps safer and accommodates for heavy foot traffic conditions. HB157 has a higher gauge between 4-7mm enabling the Floor Nosings to be well adapted to fit with various textured floor coverings, which protects the step edge and flooring material.

The Stair Nosing was installed using the specialist ‘Secret Fixing’ method. This was chosen to hide the screw heads and reduce the risk of dirt traps forming.

This cost effective and aesthetically pleasing Stair Nosing solution was quick and easy to install in order to keep disruption levels to a minimum within the working environment of the golf club.
