Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Oct 9, 2009

Schluter has supplied its stair nosing profiles to provide visibility and protection from wear and tear at a busy shopping centre.

12 flights of stairs needed to be tiled as part of a refurbishment at the Bentall Shopping Centre, Kingston Upon Thames.

The centre has fourteen million visitors a year meaning that the edges of the stairs are exposed to heavy mechanical stresses and can represent a risk for injury.

Schluter-Trep-B was installed to provide slip-resistance with its aluminium support section and replaceable thermoplastic tread.

Schluter-Trep-Tap cover profile for the stair risers was installed to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).

Schluter-Dilex movement joints were installed to protect the tiles in the lift areas.

Schluter-Reno-Ramp created a step-free transition into the lifts.
