Good job brother best vid on installation I seen so far 👍

How do you install a stair nose on the top stair when the flooring planks are perpendicular (rather than parallel) to the stair nose?

[@znetflooring]

Really, an overlap stairnose is what would be recommended in that situation if one was available.
Some companies won't warranty a flush done this way, but Shaw recommends you custom cut the planks to fit nicely against the stairnose and glue a section of the floor down to keep it secure. You lose your factory edge and bad cuts will be obvious, but it is really the only way to make it work.

@@znetflooring Thank you!! I greatly appreciate your suggestions.

Will the shaw flush stair nose work with 6.5mm lifeproof flooring?

[@znetflooring]

Hello,
Unfortunately, that brand is exclusive to a major big box chain, I do not have access to the data.

Thank you for this helpful video! We are using corkback LVP from Coretec as well. However, our stairs are deep so we need to join 1-1.5" from another plank to fill the step. Do we need to glue down the planks onto the plywood as well? (Using the recommended Shaw 1500 adhesive).

[@znetflooring]

Hello,
For actual stairways, yes. You should be gluing down the planks as well, Most people do tend to use the same construction adhesive as they use for the stair nose piece though.

[@markcloutier873]

Great video. Can you post a link to the stairnose LVP product you are using?

[@znetflooring]

Hi @markcloutier873,
We unfortunately do not sell this particular stair nose anymore, but you can find others that are similar on our website znetflooring.com
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about the flooring, and/or ordering process :)

Is there a certain floor you are trying to coordinate with?

[@markcloutier873]

@@znetflooring Not yet. I would like a match between the nosing and the rest of the vinyl flooring however. Favoring a lighter tan color.

[@cassandradailing8257]

Hi, does the flooring piece at the top have to have the locking side, or can it be cut? Trying to lay coretec in our hallway and down the stairs. Thanks!

[@znetflooring]

Really they are designed to have the factory edge, but many installers do cut it on landings to be able to use the flush in those spots as well. Other wise you would need an overlap on landings and not match the other stairnose.
Be aware, that not all manufacturer's will warranty using a flush on a landing piece or the top riser if going into a room with the same product installed.
These floors are designed to be floating and to use a flush stairnose, the floor needs to be glued down. If use at the top riser going into an installed room, if using the flush stairnose, you would want to glue down a section of the flooring in front of the stairs.
Please confirm with the manufacturer if you want to have your warranties retained.

My vinyl plank has attached backing pad can I use it on stairs???? Thanks

[@znetflooring]

I would check with the manufacturer, some brands have a special glue, some ask that you scrap off the pad.

[@hachiroku7443]

@@znetflooring It was pain in the ass to scratch up the attach pad🤦 I just thought if you glue it will hold up good.

[@znetflooring]

@@hachiroku7443 Many people go against manufacturer's recommendations and glue them down with the pad still attached, I have not heard of issues. But officially I recommend following the manufacturer's guidelines.

[@hachiroku7443]

@@znetflooring Yes mkst people with attached pad don’t have issues… I’m gonna install stair edging anyay so it will screw down and will add nail under hoping to add security👍 Thanks!

Where can I find flush stairnose for pergo vienna oak, or lifeproof banff gray hickory ? Thanks!

[@znetflooring]

Hello,
Those look like either exclusives or a renamed product for a large nation brick and mortar retailer.

@@znetflooring where can I find large selection of flush stair noses

[@znetflooring]

@@delltek102
Are you wanting to bring a sample of your floor somewhere and physically try and match thickness and color?
Flush stairnose might be hard to find a match, but many cities may have a company that buys closeouts, the best way to find those companies may be to ask local installers as that's where they would likely go when they fall short unexpectedly and need to finish a job.
If you are in the Las Vegas area, I could point you in the right direction?

[@znetflooring]
