Renovation Tread Installation Instructions |
HOW TO SELECT The standard stairway will require a 9" deep renovation tread on each step and an 11" deep tread at the top of each run at each intermediate landing. HOW TO MEASURE Determine the width of the existingstep to be covered abd deduct 6" to provide a 3" margin at each end. STAIR PREPARATION Badly worn or dished steps are re-leveled with a fast setting leveling compound such as an underlayment and patching compound. This will provide a level surface for installation of the renovation treads and sets in 2 to 4 hours INSTALLATION Renovation treads are furnished with 2 rows of drilled and countersunk holes. An application of construction adhesive to the underdside perimeter of the renovation tread as well as around each drilled hole will seal out water penetration On wooden steps, fasten renovation treads with wood screws. For attachment to metal steps fasten with bolts and nuts or self tapping screws. For masonry steps fasten with expansion shields and screws. Stainless steel fasteners are recommended for exterior steps FINAL TOUCH After installation, paint the exposed areas of the steps, stringers and risers to create a bright, new stairway. |
