Overview

CAT stair nosings have been installed into one of the Worlds first purpose-built meeting facilities based in Westminster, London.

Opening in 1912, the Great Hall has an impressively long history for hosting various events, the first meeting of the United Nations in 1946, debates, concerts and shelter for Londoners during the second world war. Central Hall Westminster hosts more than 800 diverse events a year, from conferences to concerts, with all their profits going towards enhancing their building and raising money for charitable works all over the world. 

Situated in the venues undercroft, Wesley’s Cafe is a hot spot for visitors and especially popular with tourists, the cafe covers over 300m2 and also is adjacent to further event space.

Due to the entrance into the cafe being via a staircase, the constant high footfall called for a stair nosing made up from a combination of our Aluminium products.

AN69 was the main section to fit the rounded step edge, then aluminium extension piece ANEXT creating a wider tread connected to an ANRE25 ramp edge at the back covering the safety vinyl flooring. Finally, the robust Aluminium ATI49.5 aluminium inserts were inserted into the tread of AN69 and ANEXT to conceal the screw head fixings and give an all-aluminium finish.
