What Is Stair Nosing?

Stair nosing is the “nose” of a step, where people place their feet and weight on the stair. Nosing is used to increase the safety of the staircase and it does this by providing a visible, anti-slip and sturdy surface to the edge of the step.

Stair nosings are a legal Australian requirement as they prevent slip, trip and fall injuries that can often occur in public access areas when stairs are poorly designed. In addition to providing safety and visibility aid, stair nosings prevent the wear and tear of the steps and increase the lifespan of the staircase.

Is stair nosing necessary?

Yes. Start nosing is not only necessary, but it is a mandatory requirement in public or commercial settings, and needs to comply with the Australian Standard AS1428.1 design. Stair nosings ensure floor safety and accessibility. They are anti-slip and also empower those with vision impairments and disabilities with safe access.

From supply to installation and site maintenance, at Classic we offer an end-to-end solution for our range of products.

What is Stair Tread Nosing?

Stair tread nosing is the horizontal protruding edge at the front of a tread, where most foot traffic occurs. The stair tread nosing should be anti-slip, visible and have an optimal width, and assists people in safely utilising the stairs.

Which Stair Nosings and Contrast Strips are AS1428 and NCC compliant?

You will see as you view the range online that all products have compliance icons that notify you of their compliance, including Australian Standards and NCC compliance.
