S1 Step LED Profile

S1 Step LED Profile

Recessed into the edge of a tread, the right aluminium housing transforms an everyday staircase into a striking architectural feature. Designed specifically for stairways, these flush step profiles provide a robust physical edge while casting a defined, glare-free wash of illumination down the riser, protecting the delicate light source from heavy footfall and scuffs.

At MarcLED, our Clean Light philosophy ensures every step is bathed in an even, continuous glow, free from harsh hotspots or unwanted shadows. Whether upgrading a residential interior or fitting out a bustling commercial venue, these flush-mounted extrusions blend flawlessly into the architecture, turning a structural necessity into a sophisticated design statement.

Guiding movement and structural elegance with the S1 Step LED Profile

The S1 Step LED Profile is specifically designed to be recessed directly into the nose of an indoor stair tread, creating a seamless, minimalist finish. By sinking the aluminium extrusion into the step, internal components receive vital protection, shielded from the direct impact of foot traffic, vacuum cleaners, and daily wear.

Beyond physical durability, the high-grade aluminium acts as a highly efficient thermal management system. The substantial metal mass draws heat away from the diodes, significantly extending their lifespan and ensuring your staircase illumination remains vibrant and consistent for years.

Achieving flawless integration across diverse stair widths

To suit any project scale, we offer these extrusions in a comprehensive range of lengths. For standard domestic flights, 1.0m and 2.0m sections ensure easy installation. For wider commercial steps, 3.0m spans reduce the need for joins, while 20.0m rolls accommodate highly specialised, continuous runs. Small sample pieces are also available to test the fit and finish against your chosen timber or stone.

The profile is available in two robust finishes that fortify the aluminium against corrosion and superficial damage. The silver matt anodised option offers a classic aesthetic that effortlessly hides fingerprints and minor scuffs, while the black anodised finish delivers a striking, high-contrast edge perfect for contemporary or industrial-inspired settings.

To complete the installation, snug-fitting diffusers securely snap into the channel, softening the output to eliminate glare and sealing internal components against dust. Paired with perfectly matched end caps to prevent side light bleed, all components are fully UKCA and CE compliant, guaranteeing safety, durability, and superior performance for your architectural lighting design.
