Renovated stairs, but missing trim on the front edge of the stairs?

[Touchofred]

Hello.

I just renovated the staircase, painted it white, and then laid laminate on the steps.
But my partner doesn't want an aluminum stair nose but a white wooden trim.
And I don't know what kind of trim to use. Are there any special trims for that purpose?
It should be pre-painted white if available?

Thanks in advance.

Such a piece sounds like a simple cheap alternative:

But the question is, of course, how well the white color withstands wear.

Just did the same procedure as you last fall with laminate on the steps. I used a strip similar to the one KOW links to as a stair nose. To protect the strips from wear, I painted them with a durable Jotun Lady paint. It has worked great and I can't see any noticeable wear on the stairs. If any wear occurs and becomes bothersome, you can simply touch up with more paint

If it occurs and is bothersome, well, I'll just touch it up with more paint

Thanks for the tip! I can only find strips that are 43mm; the one I need must be 50mm. Otherwise, it won't cover the entire front of the stairs, resulting in an edge at the bottom, which won't look very nice. :/

Take a standard foder then!
They come in widths from 43 to 95 mm.
