Wally Says:

Floora, did you know that stair nosing is so much more than a finishing touch for your stairs! it's a key component for stair safety and longevity. At Koffler Sales, you'll find an impressive range of nosing products designed to protect and perfect every step. Whether you're dealing with tile, wood, or stone surfaces, there's a nosing solution that fits. Rubber nosing, for instance, offers a professional edge and enhanced slip resistance, suitable for various surfaces. It's a durable choice that stands up to heavy foot traffic without fading, chipping, or cracking.

But that's not all. Vinyl stair nosing options bring a professional finish to any indoor setting, available in a spectrum of colors to match any décor. And for those seeking the ultimate in durability and style, metal stair nosing presents an array of non-slip options for both indoor and outdoor stairs, ensuring safety in even the harshest conditions

Buying Tip: Always consider the specific requirements of your space—whether it's the need for indoor use, color matching, or heavy-duty protection—Koffler Sales has the right nosing for every scenario.

Each material offers unique benefits: rubber and vinyl for indoor use with a variety of color options, and metal for unbeatable durability and slip resistance.


Installation Tip from Floora: Proper measurement and preparation are essential. Ensure the stairs are clean and dry before installation, and follow the product-specific instructions for the best results. And remember, a well-chosen stair nosing not only improves safety but also elevates the look of your stairs

Design Tip: Don't be afraid to use color and material to your advantage. Stair nosing offers a great opportunity to accent your stairs or create a cohesive look with the rest of your space.
