Elevating Safety and Style at Furman University's Timmons Arena
Recently, we had the privilege of enhancing Furman University’s newly renovated Timmons Arena with our Tredsafe safety stair nosing—crafted to safety standards and tailor-made in a custom color to complement the arena’s vibrant new design.
This project marked the first official install of our Safety Trim product, and it couldn’t have been a better showcase. Furman University wanted a solution that would not only meet safety standards but also reflect their school spirit and visual identity. We delivered with custom color-matching and a design tailored specifically for their arena environment.
THE OUTCOME AT TIMMONS ARENA!
A seamless blend of function and form. Our trims provided the necessary protection for high-traffic areas while complementing the arena’s aesthetics. The installation process was straightforward, thanks to Tredsafe’s engineered simplicity, allowing for a clean finish without compromising durability.
This project is a testament to what’s possible when safety meets customization. Whether it’s a sports facility, commercial space, or public venue, Tredsafe offers a versatile solution that adapts to your vision.
Why Choose Safety Stair Nosing?
1. Superior Safety Performance
Each nosing includes a special insert—a blend of PVC, silica quartz, and polymeric plasticizer—engineered for exceptional slip resistance in both wet and dry environments. These inserts endure exposure to UV light, oils, acids, detergents, and more, ensuring reliability during high-traffic game days.
2. Built to Last
Constructed from anodized aluminum, our nosing resists corrosion and handles heavy foot traffic seamlessly. Each is precision-drilled for standard #4 screws at an 82° angle, ensuring a secure, maintenance-friendly installation.
3. Custom Color Matching
With 20+ finish options, and a palette of standard and special-order insert colors (including Safety Orange, Signal Yellow, Charcoal Grey, Rich Brown, and more), we matched Furman’s signature hues—enhancing brand consistency across every spectator step.
4. ADA Compliance & Visual Definition
Beyond anti-slip features, our stair nosing offers high-contrast edging that supports ADA compliance, helping define step edges clearly for all patrons, including those with visual impairments.
This project is a testament to what’s possible when safety meets customization. Whether it’s a sports facility, commercial space, or public venue, our safety tris offers a versatile solution that adapts to your vision.
