Step 5 · Install Securing Mechanism
Decide on your method for securing the treads. For removable treads, heavy-duty Velcro strips are a common choice. Attach one side of the Velcro to the underside of the tread and the corresponding side to the top of the riser or the nosing of the stair below. Alternatively, small L-brackets can be screwed into the underside of the tread and the riser, ensuring screws are short enough not to penetrate the hardwood from the other side. Another option is strong double-sided carpet tape. Ensure the chosen method allows for easy removal without damaging the hardwood.
