Product Description
Stair nosings for laminate that are both practical and add style
Make a neat transition from your top step
- The Ali Top Nose are designed as stair nosings for carpeted stairs with a bull nose (rounded over-hang) top step which joins either floating laminate or vinyl (LVT) on the landing/hall. This means the laminate and vinyl flooring expands and contracts a small amount and is typical of flooring which is fixed using the “click” method. (Refer to the manufacturer of the flooring for full details).
- This design of stair nosing allows the (landing or hall) flooring to expand and contract without a gap appearing where the flooring joins the riser of the top step.
- Ali Top Nose are manufactured in heavy-duty aluminium and suitable for joining a stair carpet to a 7-8mm thick laminate or vinyl, floating floorcovering. It lips over the top step, securely covering the edge of a stair carpet and the edge of the landing flooring.
- Available in a choice of four finishes to complement both floorcoverings : chrome (polished), polished brass, antique brass, black.
- Likewise, it is offered in a choice of lengths: 900mm, 1800mm, 2700mm, which can all be cut to size at the time of fitting.
- Robustly manufactured with an excellent, high quality finish that withstands frequent foot traffic.

Fitting tips for the Ali Top Nose
- These stair nosings are suitable for flooring fitted with 2mm underlay. Alternatively, if the underlay is 4mm thick, use the supplied mdf spacers to raise the Ali stair nosing a further 2mm.
- Install a section of Easyshim to the vertical riser of the top step, if you wish to stick the carpet for an additional firm fix.
- The Ali Top Nose is pre-drilled and countersunk at 150mm intervals and is supplied with Spax-M self-drilling screws. Apply adhesive too for an extra-strong fix.
- For that extra style detail stair rods make an attractive decorative accessory to a carpeted staircase.
- To ensure a safe and smart installation, we recommend a proficient carpet fitter to fit all stair nosings. The NICF (National Institute of Carpet and Floorlayers) can advise on professional fitters in your area.
