As in previous years, high-quality ornamental stairs are a must in private households and help to prevent injuries. Contrary to popular belief, decorative stairs are not only used to decorate your home, but also to provide support for climbing and descending stairs. Bare wooden steps might be incredible, but they’re slippery, making them especially dangerous for your kids and pets. Additionally, outdoor stairs can become difficult when covered in snow, ice, or rainwater. Fortunately, decorative stair treads make your steps safer. Consider the points below when making your selection.
Crowd
The first thing to consider when deciding which staircase is best for your home is the number of mats you need. Of course you want each step to have a profile. If your staircase has 10-12 steps, you will need 10-12 mats. Many manufacturers and designers allow you to purchase additional steps if the set you have chosen is not sufficient. There are also tiers that you can purchase individually.
length and width
Most stairs are not designed to wrap around the nosing. Since they only need to rest on one surface, the length of your tread should be 3 to 5 inches less than the length of each step. Most steps are 20 to 25 cm long. If the staircase is larger, a longer length should be used. To determine the maximum length of your stair nosing, measure from the front of a step to the back. As for width, you will find that decorative stair treads come in a variety of widths. The width of a profile determines the area covered in each step. You can opt for a narrow staircase, which is usually 22.5 inches wide. For a wider profile, you can choose a maximum of 36 inches. A wide stair profile is often used outdoors, while a narrower version is best used indoors. After discussing the above, you can move on to the fun part: the shopping!
