Questions and Answers for EVERMARK Stair Parts 48 in. x 11-1/2 in. x 1 in. Unfinished Red Oak Plain Cut No Return Engineered Stair Tread

A:  Hi Stairs, if you are planning to use Evermark stair treads indoors, as long as you acclamated the stairs to your indoor temperature and follow the install guide available on the Home Depot product page, you should be fine. Evermark products are not rated for outdoor use.

A:  I’m unfortunately not an expert on whether this will work outdoors. I used it indoors. 

A:  Hi there! Yes they certainly can! We've seen many different uses of our treads! Using them as shelving is a very popular idea! Good luck with your project!

A:  Hi Audrey, Red Oak is a harder wood, and is stain grade so you should be able to sand and re-stain without issue.

A:  Hi Michael, Evermark Stair Treads are for interior use only. Thanks for reaching out!

A:  Hi Curiousdiy, the core is a hardwood engineered core. This improves stability and strength and allows for the re-sawn red oak layers on the top and bottom to have a more uniformed appearance.

A:  Hi Mike - The radius of the nose on this product is .51 inches, although this is engineered core so if you are rounding off the edge it may not be as smooth of a finish that you may desire. We have a return piece already made that is designed to work with the tread. Please take a look at part #8072R-000-HD00L.

A:  Hi Dazzle, great question. You most certainly can cut a dado so that your riser notches into the tread. Do not cut the dado so deep that you compromise the structural integrity of the tread. If you have additional questions, we will respond as quickly as we can.

A:  Please take a look at model # 8430W-048-0000L and 8430W-042-0000L. These are the only white oak treads we offer online. These options are going to be a 48in and a 42in. We do not have a white oak option in 36in.

A:  Hi there! When properly installed, these treads meet or exceed standard building code requirements. If you are concerned about weight, adding a center stringer is certainly recommended. The treads must be used with risers so that the edge of the tread rests on the riser below it (with a 1-1/4" overhang)
