Step 2 · Step 2: Place and Secure Your Tread
Now for the 'stick'! After removing the liner, take your time to precisely align the carpet stair tread on your step or landing area. We recommend starting at the back edge of the tread, gently laying it down. Once you're confident in your placement, apply firm, even pressure across the entire surface of the tread. This activates our specialized adhesive, creating a strong, secure bond that won't damage your beautiful wooden stairs. The Oak Valley Difference means these treads are designed for peace of mind – easily removable and replaceable if needed, without leaving residue or harm to your underlying surface.
Align the tread from the back edge first, then press firmly and evenly to ensure the adhesive bonds securely.
