Outdoor steps with covering - safety and aesthetics for the garden

External steps with covering

Discover the world of outdoor steps with surfacing and how you can use them to add safety and aesthetics to your garden.


Outdoor steps with surfacing are not only functional elements, but also offer the opportunity to visually enhance your garden and make inaccessible areas safe. One important factor that should be taken into account is the surface of the steps. Outdoor steps are usually made of steel or aluminium, but metals may not always be slip-resistant depending on weather conditions. Our slope and stair treads have grooved and perforated surfaces to ensure safety when walking in adverse conditions.

External stair covering - it should be non-slip

Garden paths and steps are often exposed to the elements, which can increase the risk of slipping, especially when wet. By covering your outdoor steps, you benefit from a simple and flexible solution to prevent accidents while preserving the natural charm of the garden. Our special films are weatherproof and resistant to UV rays, rain and frost. They can be easily applied to steps and slopes to ensure a non-slip tread, even in wet weather. Our outdoor stair topping is non-slip and available in 'mini', 'midi' and 'maxi' sizes to ensure it is tailored to the exact size of your steps.

Safety aspects for steps

Safety is a crucial aspect of outdoor steps. A slippery or unsuitable surface can lead to dangerous falls and impair the functionality of the stairs in the long term. To prevent such incidents, outdoor steps with a surface are a good choice. Our covering for steps offers:

• Slip resistance: The top priority is a non-slip surface to ensure safe footing even in wet conditions.

• Weather resistance: Outdoor stair tread coverings should be able to withstand rain, snow and sunlight. Our high-quality coverings are specially designed and manufactured for outdoor use.

• Easy to clean: A safe surface should not only be non-slip, but also easy to clean and maintain. That's why we use a self-adhesive anti-slip film on one side, which can simply be applied to the steps and cleaned if necessary.

Aesthetics and design must not be neglected

Aesthetics and design are also important. Our outdoor stair covering is non-slip and does not detract from the design. We use a neutral colour scheme for our anti-slip film so that you can continue to benefit from the aesthetics of our steps made of different metals without compromising the overall look of your garden.

Care and maintenance

Care and maintenance are essential to maintain the anti-slip properties of the flooring and preserve its aesthetic appearance. Regular cleaning of the anti-slip film is essential to remove any dirt, leaves or algae that could impair its slip resistance. In most cases, cleaning the surface with a soft broom in dry weather is recommended. In this way, most dirt can be easily removed. Regular cleaning of outdoor steps with decking is advisable.

To summarise, outdoor steps with surfacing can not only increase safety, but also enhance the aesthetics of the garden and make inaccessible areas accessible. Our non-slip surfacing fulfils these requirements and only requires regular maintenance to maintain its properties.
