🪜 How to Order a Flexible Stair Nose

Use this quick guide to make sure you get exactly what you need for your stair project.

✅ Step 1: Choose Your Stair Shape

These shapes are Standard Orders — no template needed:

  • Straight – No curve
  • Outside Bend – ✔ Curve bends toward you
  • Inside Bend – ✔ Curve bends away from you
    (when looking straight at the front of the step)

🔁 Custom Curve?
Tight turns or S-curves need extra details.

📐 Step 2: Measuring Guide

We always need:

  • Total linear feet of your project
    (use a tape or string and follow the full curve)

If you’re ordering a Custom Stair Nose:

  • Step width
  • Step depth (front to back)
  • Width before the curve starts
  • Middle of the turn (radius)

🌳 Step 3: Pick Your Style & Grain

  • Pick your preferred profile
    (Do you prefer bull nosing or a squared finish?)
  • Select oak or maple wood grain
    (Oak has texture, and maple is more smooth)

🎨 Step 4: Choose Your Finish

  • Unfinished – stain it yourself
  • Stock Color – pick from 28 of our in-house color options
  • Custom Match – send us a sample for a perfect match
