Red Oak Lowcountry Cordial Landing Tread 60 in

A:Red Oak accounts for over 50% of hardwood floors in US homes built before 2015, making it the natural match for most staircase upgrades. Janka hardness 1290 — handles residential traffic for decades. Open grain accepts stain evenly for consistent color matching to existing floors.

A:Lowcountry Cordial is a sophisticated medium-dark brown with subtle warm undertones — richer than Gunstock but lighter than Dusk. Named after the South Carolina Lowcountry coastal region. Deep golden-brown with visible grain. Sits in the range of Provincial or Country White stains. Works in coastal, farmhouse, and updated traditional interiors.

A:60" treads appear in luxury custom builds, upscale renovation projects, and large entry foyers in homes over 3,500 sq ft. At this width the staircase is a major architectural feature. Also found in hospitality and commercial-residential applications. Professional installation recommended for 60"+ treads due to weight and precision fitting requirements.

A:Landing treads install the same way as retro treads: clean the landing edge, apply Loctite PL Premium adhesive to the back, press firmly into position, and secure with a brad nailer. Landing treads are typically 5-1/4" wide and cover only the front edge of the landing — not the full landing surface. Installation time: 15–20 minutes per landing tread.

A:A landing tread is installed on the staircase landing — the flat platform between flights or at the top. Unlike a stair tread, a landing tread is typically flush on all sides since it covers only the front edge of the landing. Typically 5-1/4" wide. Available in the same species and stain colors as stair treads for a matched look. Significantly less expensive than full stair treads — $14–$57 per piece.
