The installation of stainless steel Stairtec SWP and SWR buttons may take place either off-site or on-site by simply pre-drilling holes at 70 mm on center. In detail: When installed on wood, simply drill a 6.5mm hole and insert the button, pushing it into place. When installing it on marble, stone or ceramic, drill a 7mm hole and fasten the button with an adhesive suitable for the surface. This product is designed for stairways, as decoration or as an anti-slip device (the button has a knurled surface). Alternatively, it can be used as a tactile button on flooring, to indicate areas or pathways.

Before installing the flooring it’s important to turn on the heat progressively from 10º to the maximum temperature for a couple of weeks, in order to dry the substrate completely before installing the flooring. Then place a perimeter joint, a joint on the threshold, and joints in areas where the passage of hot water and cold water intersect because the flooring is most subject to compression and contraction.
