Specifications

What it's used for

• Forming the curved riser at the starting step of a new or replacement staircase
• Matching existing oak stair treads and flooring during a refurbishment or renovation
• Providing a factory-machined bullnose detail on bespoke joinery staircases in both modern and traditional interiors
• Replacing a damaged or worn riser on an oak stair cladding scheme without the need for workshop machining

Fitting and handling

Allow the riser to acclimatise in the room where it will be installed for at least 48 hours before fixing, keeping it flat and supported along its full length to prevent distortion. Fix using a suitable wood adhesive combined with concealed fixings or panel pins, ensuring the substrate is clean, dry, and structurally sound before application. Once fitted, apply your chosen oil, lacquer, or wax finish to seal the oak face and protect it from everyday wear, working with the grain for an even result.

FAQ

Will this riser match standard oak stair treads available from Nottage Timber Merchants?

The oak faced finish is compatible with most standard oak stair tread and riser components, though natural timber variation means grain and colour can differ slightly between boards. We recommend ordering treads and risers from the same batch where possible to keep the match as close as you can.

Can I cut this bullnose riser down to a shorter width on site?

Yes, the 1030mm length can be trimmed to suit your staircase width using a fine-tooth saw blade. Always support the piece fully when cutting and sand any cut edges smooth before finishing to avoid splintering the oak face veneer.

Is this riser suitable for a curved or winder staircase?

This component is designed for use on straight starting steps and is not suitable for bending around curved or winder treads. For shaped staircase work, speak to our team at Nottage Timber Merchants who can advise on appropriate alternatives.
