60 x 55mm Heavy Duty DDA Compliant Stair Nosing
The 60 x 55mm heavy duty aluminium stair nosing is a high-specification, commercial-grade profile designed for demanding environments where edge protection, slip resistance and accessibility compliance are all required. Built from 5mm gauge aluminium, it provides a robust, long-lasting stair edge for new-build and refurbishment projects alike.
The PVC anti-slip insert is pre-drilled through with colour-matched pips that conceal fixing screw heads once installed — delivering a clean, uninterrupted surface finish. The straight-edge profile supports a smooth tread-to-riser transition on carpet and resilient floor coverings.
DDA Compliant
Fully compliant with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and aligned with BS8300:2009+A1:2010 accessibility standards. The nosing provides the visual contrast and underfoot grip required in public and commercial buildings, helping to clearly define step edges for all users including those with visual impairments.
Available in 11 Colours and 6 Lengths
Choose from 11 PVC insert colours — White, Black, Brown, Beige, Canvas, Red, Dolphin Grey, Ice Grey, Midnight Grey, Yellow and Cobalt Blue — across six standard lengths from 1.0m to 3.22m. Colour options allow the nosing to provide clear visual contrast against the stair surface, as required by DDA guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does DDA compliant mean for stair nosings?
DDA compliance requires that stair nosings provide a visual contrast to the surrounding stair surface to help users – particularly those with visual impairments – identify step edges clearly. This nosing meets those requirements and is also aligned with BS8300:2009+A1:2010, which sets out design standards for accessible buildings.
Are fixings included?
No – fixings are not included with this nosing. You will need to source appropriate screws and plugs to suit your stair substrate. The channel is pre-drilled, so no drilling of the nosing itself is required.
How are screw heads concealed?
The PVC insert is pre-drilled at fixing positions. Once the channel is fixed to the stair, the insert sits over the screw heads. Colour-matched pips fill the drill holes in the insert, hiding the fixing points completely.
Can this be cut to length?
Yes. Cut the aluminium channel with a mitre saw or angle grinder with a metal cutting disc. Cut the PVC insert with a sharp utility knife or hacksaw to match.
What floor coverings is this suitable for?
This profile is designed for use with carpet and resilient floor coverings. The straight-edge profile and 5mm gauge make it particularly suited to commercial staircases in offices, retail, hospitality and public buildings.
