Strata Staircase Compliance and Safety Improvements, Sydney
Tactile King helps strata managers, owners corporations and building managers fix slippery, worn or poorly defined stairs in apartment buildings and mixed-use strata complexes across Sydney and NSW. We supply and install anti-slip stair nosings, painted anti-slip treads and contrast edge treatments, and we can add tactile indicators where access upgrades call for them.
Common stair problems in strata buildings
- Worn or polished stair edges that are slippery when wet, especially external and fire stairs
- Step edges that are hard to see because there is little contrast between tread and riser
- Loose, damaged or peeling anti-slip tape and old strips
- Incident reports, insurer recommendations or an audit that flags stair safety
Options we can quote
- Aluminium or stainless stair nosings with anti-slip inserts, fitted to concrete, tile and timber stairs
- Painted anti-slip treads where nosings are impractical, including fire stairs and back-of-house stairs
- Contrasting step edges so the front of each tread is easier to see
- Tactile indicators at stair tops and bottoms where an access upgrade requires them
We’ll recommend the simplest option that fits the stair and the budget, and we can price a staged approach so a committee can approve works in priority order. Which treatment is appropriate depends on the building, its age and class, and what your access consultant, certifier or insurer has recommended, so please confirm any compliance obligations with them.
Strata stair questions
Do we need a quote for a committee meeting? Yes, we provide itemised written quotes that can be tabled for owners corporation approval, with options priced separately.
Can you work around residents? Painted tread treatments can often be done stair by stair so there is always a clear route. We’ll plan access with your building manager.
What do you need to quote? Photos of each stair flight and landing, the surface material, the number of steps and whether the stairs are internal or external.
