Wood treads can experience a lot of wear and tear, especially in homes with young children or pets. Viewrail says its new wire-brushed treatment leaves the heartwood on the tread exposed, providing a weathered look that holds up well in high-traffic areas while creating a textured finish that provides improved slip resistance. Viewrail offers wire brushing on treads for Flight, Stratus, and Terrace floating stair systems in 15 species, 39 finishes, and widths from 36 to 72 inches, at no additional cost. viewrail.com
