Re: [DIY] finishing laminate flooring at the top of stairs

 

Friends of ours have laminate at the landings and on the stair treads as well and the edging is not only a trip hazard but the laminate is so slick that they have stumbled and or fallen several times.  I am not a fan of laminate on or near stairs.  A semi rough ceramic or porcelain tile would me my choice of materials on a landing.

GOOD MORNING, ALL!!
 
I am installing laminate flooring in new construction, 2-story.  We are laying the padding over the OSB underlayment, and then laminate on the padding.  
 
I'm not sure how to finish the flooring at the top of the stairs.  It seems to me that transition will create a trip hazard.  What are my options?
 
FWIW, the laminate is running parallel to the steps themselves, perpendicular to the incline direction.

Thanks!!
