Hi-Traction® Anti-Slip
Landing Covers
Seamless Anti-Slip Protection for Stair Landings
Along with anti-slip step covers, consider any landing areas in the stairway. Attention must be paid to the open area and especially the leading edge. SAFEGUARD® Hi-Traction® Landing Covers combine a larger flat area with a vertical lip to provide seamless coverage on stair landings.
Custom-made to your specifications, our landing covers are available in fiberglass (FRP) or steel. The grit size can vary depending on your application; choose from six different grades.
Photoluminescent HiGlo-Traction Landing Covers are visible for hours after the light source goes away. Provide a safe environment in low light and emergency situations.
The majority of slips-and-falls occur at the leading edge of a step. Adding a contrasting color on the step edge makes it easier to see the steps.
Public Transportation & Buildings
Keep operations safe with our anti-slip products. Landing covers are used in many public and institutional buildings from hospitals to nursing homes and public transportation facilities. Our landing covers combine the size of a walkway cover with the wrap of a step cover to protect the leading edge where most slips-and-falls occur.
