General product information

What this product does

Schlüter-VINPRO-STEP are special stair nosing profiles made of anodised aluminium for the safe and visually appealing design of stairs with resilient coverings (e.g. LVT flooring). The profiles provide reliable edge protection for resilient coverings and significantly enhance user safety by making stair steps clearly visible.

The stair finishing profile VINPRO-STEP has a 7 mm vertical anchoring leg and a 6 mm or 10 mm horizontal anchoring leg to conceal adjoining coverings. The horizontal 6 mm anchoring leg also features a special slip-resistant textured tread.
