They are on the front and back steps. Really help to keep from slipping

Excellence quality product. Installed it on condominium staircases. They have a lot of foot traffic and are exposed to the sun. Have held up well and stay in. place.

Very tough product, easy to install if your PREPARE the steps as instructed and make sure things are clean! I marked and cut the pieces before I began so I had things ready, along with my pie roller (since I did not have a rubber one) and a rubber mallet. If you roll back and forth and pound it well with the mallet, it will not come off. I have some on other steps for two years and they are still in place. It rains a LOT where I live and the wooden steps get quite slippery for people and dogs in the winter. I love these strips as they save a LOT of falls I am sure!

I applied this to our wooden staircase steps for my elderly father in law. The original has been in place for three years now with no sign of loosening or peeling. I just did another staircase. Applies instantly and seems to last forever!

This product works great, but you *absolutely need* to use the edge "Safety Walk Edge Sealing Compound" properly applied to prevent the edges from coming up. I suspect the reviewers complaining of the tread coming up did not take this step - and in all fairness, that is not clearly stated on this product. I used this on an outdoor wheelchair ramp last fall, and it is still going strong after a record setting New England winter. Of course, it doesn't do anything to increase friction when it's covered in ice, but definitely makes a difference in the rain.

Delivered as described.

I got this to apply to the indoor steps leading to the basement of my grandparent's house. Each step is only about 8-10" deep and they are painted, so when you have wet shoes it becomes a hazard to go up and down the steps.I cut a single strip to go near the edge of every step, about 1/4" back from the edges depending on the shape of the steps... you know how wooden steps wear with age, and had cracks and chips... So I had to make sure I applied the strips where they will stick the best.Feels close to 1/16" thick or less after applied, and has a gritty sandpaper texture... my fingertips were looking a tad rough after putting down a dozen strips.There's one small issue I should point out, if you're putting these down for older people, make sure you coach them on how to navigate over the strips... yes, it may seem ridiculous, but it changes a completely smooth flat surface to one that's irregular and partially rough. My grandfather's first attempt to go down the stairs made me more aware of this.... Here's why:He's so old now, his feet often drag on the floor as he shuffles along. He likes to wear a style of dress shoes with a squared heel edge that can get snagged on the smallest of bumps or ridges. Instead of sliding his foot from one step down to the next off of a smooth slick step, now he needs to actually step down by picking his feet up enough to not get snagged on the strips.Aside from having to retrain senior citizens on the dangers of shuffling down modified steps, it made it much easier for me to go up and down them. I've never felt safe in my entire life on those steps, always holding on for dear life as I traversed them.NOW I CAN DO A DANCE UP AND DOWN THE STEPS! Once I stuck them on, they really stuck to the steps. I really did dance up and down them to show my family how reliable this stuff is.I just ordered another roll to treat another set of slick indoor steps!

Yes, it cost more than the other less expensive brands. So last year I used the less expensive brand and it just peeled away with weather. So far the 3-M product is holding out great. To protect from a fall it is worth the extra cost for the durability.
