Installation For Tile Trim Or Stair Nosing

by Kevin Ho Kingoals Aluminum Co., Ltd.

Step 1: Select proper color and shape of profile to fit thickness of your tile.

Step 2: Place grout & mortar to the area where tile, tile trim (or stair nosing) are to be laid on, using the proper size notch trowel.

Step 3: Press the pre-punched anchor leg of the profile into the grout until grout fills the cutout-holes, align trim with tile edge to make sure the tile is flush against lower edge of trim face to ensure a uniform grout joint space between trim and tile.

Step 4: Trowel additional grout evenly over and completely cover the pre-punched cutout hole of anchor leg, and ensure the anchor leg should be partially buried in the grout to support the tile trim or stair nosing.

Step 5: Ensure the tile is flush with top of profile or slightly lower. The profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but rather up to around 1mm lower.

Step 6: After the tiles and profile have set, fill the joint completely with grout.

Step 7: Slightly wipe off redundant grout immediately.
