Part of our premium New Zealand Wool collection of True Bullnose® padded carpet stair treads! An elegant but affordable alternative to a complete professional runner installation. We sell treads individually (per step) so you can order the correct number of treads to match the number of steps you have in your staircase.

For the Luxury Cadence 2 Maritime blue, you may choose between the darker teal binding tape which is shown in the first picture, or you may choose the white binding tape shown in the proceeding pictures.

We make the treads in our standard sizes of 24″wide, or 27″ wide, 31″ wide and 35″ wide and they fit the standard 10″ deep stair with a 1″ thick tread. But if you need a custom size, just let us know, we can do that, too!

The style is called Luxury Cadence 2 and the color is Maritime Blue. Here is what Nourison has to say about it:

“Made from 100% New Zealand Wool. Designed for the application where luxury and beauty are essential. This collection was created with emphasis toward pattern balance while utilizing a unique color palette for sophisticated styling that is attractive and timeless. Luxury Broadloom is expertly crafted with Hagaman’s “Precision-Lock” proprietary technology for unrivaled quality and durability. Made in the U.S.A.”

We make treads using Nourison’s Luxury Cadence 2 Collection. As shown, it made up with a classic 1/2 inch by 1/2″ pattern. This listing is for just one of the 12 colors offered!

The carpet yarn is the durable New Zealand Wool, not the cheaper olefin/polypropylene-type yarns. Here is how we do it:

We start with this awesome 100% New Zealand Wool carpet, cut it down to the correct tread size, seam the borders, permanently attach our True Bullnose® rigid edge, and then add a soft, non-scratchy padding to the back. (Padding is now recommended by every carpet manufacturer. It improves the comfort, performance and life of the carpet. We use a 100% post-consumer padding and the best part is we include it at no additional cost!)

The standard size is made for a 10″ deep tread 24″ wide, but you can upgrade to 27″ wide, 31″ wide or 35″ wide — or we can make any custom size you may need! As shown in our Shop, the True Bullnose® stair tread is permanently attached to a rigid bullnose piece so when installed, it will stay nicely wrapped around your stairs. Other manufacturers use combinations of tape or glue, and hope the treads stay wrapped around the stairs. Not these. True Bullnose® treads have a pressure sensitive material that keeps the tread in place and a strong, rigid bullnose edge that keeps the wrap-around in place.
