Description
This stair tread template features a clean square nosing profile measuring 36 inches in length, designed for 2cm+2cm Laminated stone construction. The square nose creates sharp, precise lines that define contemporary and modern architectural aesthetics. This minimalist edge treatment eliminates curves and rounds in favor of crisp geometric definition, making it the preferred choice for ultra-modern interiors and commercial spaces. The 36-inch length provides appropriate coverage for standard to compact staircases, while the 12-inch depth ensures comfortable foot placement and building code compliance. The laminated 2cm+2cm construction combines the workability of thinner slabs with the durability of thicker material. The 1-inch nosing overhang maintains standard building requirements while the square profile creates bold visual impact.

Installation Overview
Installation demands meticulous attention to the substrate, which must be perfectly level and structurally sound. ${laminated ? 'The laminated construction requires both layers to be fully bonded before installation.' : 'The 2cm thickness is less forgiving of substrate irregularities, so precision is essential.'} Apply high-quality thin-set mortar using a notched trowel for consistent coverage. Position the tread with extreme precision—square edges make any misalignment immediately obvious. Check level thoroughly and ensure the nosing overhang is uniform. The square profile's sharp edges require careful handling during installation to prevent chipping. Allow full curing before exposing to traffic.
CNC Cutting Notes
CNC cutting square nosing profiles is straightforward but demands sharp tooling for crisp edges. ${laminated ? 'Cut each layer separately before lamination for best results, accounting for the combined 4cm thickness in your final assembly.' : 'Use feed rates of 60-100 inches per minute appropriate for 2cm material.'} The square profile requires no radius bits—use straight cutting paths with proper edge finishing sequences. Make final passes at reduced speeds to achieve clean, chip-free corners. The sharp 90-degree angles are unforgiving of tool deflection, so ensure rigid machine setup and sharp diamond tooling. Constant water cooling prevents heat-related edge damage.
Material Compatibility
This 2cm+2cm Laminated template is compatible with all 2cm stone materials for laminated construction, including granite, marble, quartzite, and engineered quartz. Lamination is ideal for achieving the robust appearance of thick material while maintaining fabrication efficiency. Engineered quartz is particularly well-suited to square profiles due to consistent density and excellent edge-holding characteristics.
Where to Buy
Laminated stone stair treads require professional fabrication and are available through specialized stone fabricators offering lamination services. Many shops bond two thinner slabs using UV-cured resins or epoxy systems. Contact countertop fabricators with architectural capabilities, regional stone distributors, and specialty building material suppliers. Some offer pre-cut blanks that can be finished to specification using this DXF template.
