Stair Guard/Corner Guard
Perfect Protection for Stairs and Corners
SkudoBoard Stair Guard and SkudoBoard Corner Guard are specifically designed to fit perfectly around sharp edges, such as corners, stair treads, and wall edges. Made from the same heavy-duty, synthetic, rigid board as SkudoBoard, these products are lightweight, easy to install, and highly impact-resistant. The fabric-backed underside provides an extra layer of protection from dents, cracks, scuff marks, and scratches caused by carts, equipment, and general construction traffic.
SkudoBoard Stair Guard and SkudoBoard Corner Guard’s textured surface is slip—and water-resistant, as well as fire-retardant. The Stair Guard version features safety orange grip tape on the tread for added slip resistance and safety. It is also reusable, saving you time, hassle, and money.
Unlike plywood, flimsy plastic, and cardboard products, SkudoBoard Stair Guard and Corner Guard are resistant to curling and warping, reducing safety hazards on your jobsite. Both solutions have the same compression strength as SkudoBoard, delivering protection from dropping objects and keeping your surfaces safe.

Assessment & Suitability
SkudoBoard Stair Guard and Corner Guard should not be used on unprepared, uneven ground.
SkudoBoard Stair Guard and Corner Guard should not be used on freshly placed concrete unless that concrete will be later covered with another finishing product, such as tile, carpet, LVT, etc. Using SkudoBoard Stair Guard or Corner Guard on uncured concrete can lead to curing lines where the pieces are joined.
How to Apply
When protecting stair treads, loose lay the Stair/Corner guard on two stairs, measure the infill requirement, then pre-cut the required amount from SkudoBoard sheets, ready for installation.
From the top, secure the first Stair/Corner Guard to a base of SkudoBoard, protecting the top landing; this acts as an anchor point. Continue down the stairs placing infills and secure with 3” SkudoBoard Tape along the joins. If treads are wider than one Stair/Corner Guard, secure by taping down the seams.
Corner Guard installed on wall returns prone to damage by carts can be secured using 3M command strips or 3” tape if the walls are protected by SkudoBoard, Column Guard, or Tack Mat.
