Why we know this works!

We love this black anti slip stair tread because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we treat people after falls that happened on the one step they could not quite see. Does anti slip tape actually help prevent stair falls? It helps in two ways: the surface adds traction on slippery wood, tile, marble, metal, or concrete, and the black strip creates strong contrast so each step edge is easier to see going up or down. The 4 inch by 30 foot roll cuts to size, and it is waterproof for indoor or outdoor use on decks, patios, entryways, and walkways. This is especially important for people with low vision, macular degeneration, or the depth perception changes that come with age, and for anyone with neuropathy who cannot feel step edges well. It needs a smooth, hard surface to stick, so it will not work on carpeted stairs; if you want the grip without visible strips, our Clear Anti Slip Stair Tread blends in.
