ProKnee
The Treadman multi-angle stair tread system is a tool that is cutting time in half, while side stepping pattern scribing and the need for tricky technical techniques. By securely locking in each step’s and tread’s specific size, Treadman acts as a template and cutting guide for quick, accurate and perfectly cut stair treads every time.
ProKnee has also added the Step Down Riser Plate Kit to its offering, which works with the Treadman system and Roppe’s LVT Six Degrees One Piece Step Down Riser Treads, allowing users to capture angles of the riser using adjustable steel plates.
