Why it works
Quick to fit. A finished tread bolts straight to the stringer, with no cutting, welding or site painting.
Drains itself. Open mesh lets rain, snow and dirt fall straight through, so water does not stand on the step.
Visible front edge. The solid chequer plate nosing gives your foot a firm edge to land on at the front of each step.
Where it is used
- Fire escapes and external steel stairs
- Plant platforms and mezzanine access
- Replacing worn treads on an existing stair
Choosing the right tread
Choose open mesh for outdoor stairs where water and dirt need to drain through, and solid chequer plate where you do not want anything falling through to the level below. Then match the width and going to your stringers.

Fitting and care
Bolt the tread through its end plates into the stringer, keeping every tread level. The published load falls as the width goes up, so check the size against what the stair has to carry. A stair is structural, so have the stair, its fixings and any guarding designed and checked by a competent person, against current Building Regulations where they apply.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one tread?
Yes, one tread, in the width you choose. A flight needs one for each step.
What load will it take?
The published capacity is 7.8kN (796kg) at 800mm, 7.0kN (719kg) at 900mm and 6.2kN (634kg) at 1000mm. Have your stair designer confirm it suits your use.
Are bolts included?
No, they are not listed as included. Allow for bolts to suit your stringer.
Will it rust?
It is galvanised, so it is suited to outdoor stairs. Treat any cut or damaged areas with a zinc-rich paint.
