Sisal Stair Runners – Supply & Fit in West Sussex
The ultimate combination of durability and style for your staircase.
A Sisal stair runner is perhaps the most sought-after flooring upgrade in West Sussex homes. It combines the incredible toughness of Sisal—essential for stairs—with a stunning, tailored look that paints/varnished margins frame perfectly. We specialise in creating and fitting bespoke Sisal runners.
Why Sisal for Runners?
Stairs take vertical impact and scuffing. Soft carpets flatten on the nose; Sisal does not. It grips your feet (making it safe) and keeps its appearance for years. The visible weave structure hides tracking marks perfectly.
Customisation Options
We can make a runner from any Sisal broadloom. Plain Bouclé offers a chunky texture. Herringbone (weave pattern) helps guide the eye up the stairs. Taped Borders allow you to add a flash of colour (black, navy, cream, red) to define the edge.
Fitting & Rods
We fit the runner securely using grippers and underlay (even though it looks flat!). We handle winders (turns) beautifully. We can also supply and fit Stair Rods in brass, black, chrome, or pewter to complete the "townhouse" look.
⚠️ Specialist Fitting Required
We can fit runners with standard whipped edges or, more popularly, a contrasting taped (cotton/linen) border. We can also install stair rods for a decorative finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sisal slippery on stairs?
No, it offers excellent grip due to the texture.
Can you fit it on curved stairs?
Yes, we cut and mitre the runner to follow the curve.
Does it hurt bare feet?
It is textured/firm. Some people find it stimulating, others find it rough. We recommend testing a sample first!
