Circus somersaults, or why so?

And you know, most often for some reason a slippery porch is a sign of a specially visited state institution. Have you noticed that there is no such problem in supermarkets? Maybe because they are interested in the visitor through the front door? One way or another, but the more expensively the porch is finished, the harder it is to overcome it on ice days. It is good if there is a railing - this is, by the way, a partial exit.

How to make a non-slip porch — If you decide to decorate the stairs in front of the house in an expensive and rich manner, put a railings - and perhaps this will save you and your household from unwanted plaster

How to punish an institution with a slippery porch

By the way, a slippery porch is not just the status of the institution, but also disrespect for visitors, for which it is worth punishing if you have suffered. In this case, the owner of the building is responsible for injury, and you can claim damages from him. So do not endure the pain of falling - call an ambulance right there so that the medical staff fix the accident site.

It so happens that you still got home after a fall and only then went to the doctor - be sure to report the place of the incident, and even better - get eyewitness accounts

And then collect checks - from medications and physiotherapy to sanatorium treatment - to go to court for reimbursement. And keep in mind: the sick leave must be paid by the organization responsible for the incident.

But if the porch belongs to you - see how to avoid conflict and waste.

If you want granite - get ready for bush hammering

The granite porch is very durable, durable and looks good. Only polished granite causes injuries. How can you avoid this? There are several options for treating granite in order to make it safe.

It is possible to carry out processing at a high (+600 ° C) temperature.

Such processing destroys polishing, but it gives a rough surface on which even thin pins do not slip.

Such processing costs about 700 rubles per 1 m². Inexpensive compared to sick pay.

There is another option - bush hammering, that is, processing the surface of a granite slab grinder with coarse grains.

For processing, they are passed along the surface in strips - and a completely non-slip coating is obtained.

Finally, fine cuts can be made in granite, into which rubber strips can be inserted. They also prevent slipping.

If we are talking about porcelain stoneware, then notches are made on it for stability. And in addition, there are ready-made tiles with an abrasive strip on sale.

Rubber profile "Shurstep"

An interesting domestic development is the SureStep profile, which is made of rubber and glued to the edge of the step. Rubber retains its elastic properties in the temperature range -60... + 60 ° C and does not allow ice to form on the steps of the porch or stairs.

This profile is sold in strips and is suitable for tiles up to 10 mm thick. Important: the profile is laid UNDER the tile, so you need to take care of it in advance

Special sills

Such sills are on sale in specialized stores, and they are of two types: for tiles and for tiles.

These are, as a rule, metal parts with plastic inserts. Their main feature is the embossed surface, which gives an anti-slip result.

Abrasive tape

One of the easiest and cheapest options to secure your porch.

You can use this sandpaper by simply cutting it into strips. Just one tip: it is better to round the edges of the strips so that they do not bulge during operation.

And one more idea - a non-slip rubber crumb coating:
