The finishing touches are being applied to Sevenoaks School new Science & Technology and Sixth Form Centres.

GA’s Premium Aluminium Alloy Stair Nosings are being fixed to oak hardwood staircases in this magnificent 3 storey workshop complex.

Specified in the natural anodised finish these hardwearing* nosings/treads are available with alternative back edge options to suit different kinds of flooring.

On this occasion the lipped back edge design (GA 1407s) was selected to provide a suitable transition between the levels of the tread surface and the wooden flooring.

Combining elegance and durability*, these ‘invisibly fixed’ aluminium alloy profiles, are available from stock in natural, natural/black and black anodised finishes.

This article follows a recent one about wear resistance testing on black anodised stair nosing.

Just returned from the testing lab is a natural (silver) anodised sample from our selection of Premium stair nosings.

A biomechanical walking machine subjected the tread surface to 1,000,000 abrasion footfalls (500,000 downward & 500,000 upward movements) to a walking action from a standard shoe.

During the test forces are applied that replicate the average person’s gait. Approximately 1000N at heal impact through to 900N at forepart impact.

Gooding Aluminium offers a variety of aluminium stair nosing designs to suit all applications. Our ‘Step-Up Stair Trims’ and our ‘Premium’ range are ‘secretly fixed’ and available in a range of tread designs and ‘back edge’ details.
