Guardian non-slip stair nosing provides a reliable and durable solution to the prevention of slips and falls that can result in serious accidents on internal and external stair cases. Manufactured from non-corrosive, high-quality, anodised aluminium, Guardian non-slip stair nosing will provide extra grip to all stair surfaces - even in adverse conditions such as the presence of water or oil.

Safety
Guardian's highlighted nosing is used to indicate the location of the leading edge of each stair to ensure safe movement up and down the stairway by all members of the community. All stairways, other than those specifically exempted under the BCA, should have these features for access and safety reasons.

The application of Guardian stair nosing on treads goings on stairways assists people with a vision impairment allowing them to see and feel the edge of each step on a stairway with far more ease; however all members of the community benefit from this application.

Building Owners' Compliance
Guardian stair nosing is a safety product essential for owners of buildings where public and employee access occurs by steps and where dedicated stair cases are used for the fire escape purposes. Building codes for the construction of stairs and exits, and Australian Standards for access and mobility now require all new buildings to include slip-resistant stair nosing.

Guardian Stair Nosings comply with Australian Building Codes, Australian Standards: SA 1428.1 & 2. 2002 and Disability Discrimination
