Solid Double Return Tread - Contemporary Nose C
A cap tread with a miter return at each end is a type of stair tread used primarily for a finished look on open staircase sides or where the stair tread is visible from the side.
The miter return refers to the angled cut (typically at a 45-degree angle) where the side of the tread meets the front nosing. This mitered edge is then joined with a matching mitered piece to form a clean, seamless corner. Having miter returns at both ends means that both ends of the tread have this detailed finish.
The miter return at each end is particularly useful for open staircases where the ends of the treads are exposed. It enhances the aesthetic appeal by hiding the end grain of the wood and providing a continuous, polished look.
During installation, careful alignment and precision cutting are required to ensure that the mitered edges fit together seamlessly. Glue and finish nails are typically used to secure the miter returns in place.
