3. Tile For tiled floors, a tile stair nose provides a seamless look. It is usually shaped to align with the tile on the tread, creating a uniform surface. Tile is highly durable and easy to clean, making it ideal for high-traffic areas.

The main purpose of veneer edging strips is to cover the exposed edges of particleboard, MDF (medium-density fiberboard), plywood, or other engineered wood products. These materials are often less visually appealing and prone to damage from moisture and wear, but by applying veneer edging, one can achieve a refined look that mimics solid wood. Moreover, veneer edging strips can effectively conceal imperfections and provide a protective barrier against chipping and peeling.

5. Self-Adhesive Weather Stripping This type features a peel-and-stick backing that makes installation quick and easy. It’s commonly made of foam or rubber and is effective for smaller gaps.

Beyond safety, these runners have the added benefit of protecting the decking surface. They prevent wear and tear from foot traffic, extending the life of the decking material underneath. This is particularly important in high-traffic areas where constant use can lead to scratches, stains, or other damages.
