Tradition Solid Oak Stair Nosings

Tradition Solid Oak Stair Nosings are built to match three specific floor thicknesses — 10mm, 15mm and 20mm — alongside a Universal profile that isn't tied to a single depth. With widths running from 60mm through to 82mm depending on the profile, and a genuine choice of lacquered, oiled or unfinished surfaces in both 0.9m and 2.7m lengths, it's a comprehensive range built to fit almost any solid or engineered oak floor.

Key Features

• Three thickness-specific profiles — for 10mm, 15mm and 20mm floors
• A Universal Stair Nosing, 27x54.5mm, not tied to one specific floor depth
• Widths from 60mm to 82mm, depending on the profile and floor thickness
• Finish choice across Lacquered, Oiled and Unfinished
• Two lengths — 0.9m and 2.7m — suiting both small repairs and full staircases
• Solid oak construction throughout, giving genuine durability on exposed stair edges

A Precise Fit for Every Floor Thickness

Rather than a single generic profile, Tradition builds its stair nosings to the exact depth of the floor they're finishing: the 10mm profile suits slimmer engineered floors, 15mm covers a common mid-range thickness, and the 20mm profile is built for more substantial solid or engineered boards. The Universal Stair Nosing offers an alternative where an exact thickness match isn't essential, while unfinished options across every profile allow the nosing to be sanded and finished on site to match the floor precisely.

Where These Stair Nosings Work Best

• Staircases with a known, specific floor thickness — 10mm, 15mm and 20mm profiles give an exact match
• Projects wanting an on-site colour match — unfinished options can be stained and finished to suit
• Longer staircases or multiple flights — 2.7m lengths reduce the number of joins needed
• Small repairs or single-step replacements — 0.9m lengths avoid buying more than needed

FAQ

How do I know which thickness profile I need?
Check the depth of your existing or planned flooring — 10mm, 15mm and 20mm profiles are each sized to sit flush with that specific floor thickness.

What is the Universal Stair Nosing for?
It's a more flexible profile not built to one specific floor depth, useful where an exact thickness match to the other profiles isn't required.

Why choose unfinished over a pre-finished nosing?
Unfinished nosings can be sanded, stained and finished on site to match your flooring exactly, rather than relying on a pre-finished colour.

What's the difference between the 0.9m and 2.7m lengths?
The 2.7m length suits full staircases with fewer joins, while the 0.9m length is more practical for single steps or smaller repairs.

What finish options are available?
Most profiles come in Lacquered, Oiled and Unfinished, though the exact choice depends on the specific thickness profile.
