    Non slip deer stand stairs???

    What have you done to make your wooden deer stand stairs non slip? I know using steel catwalk grading would be best but if your stairs are already wooden has anyone seen a good idea so they aren’t so dangerous when it gets a little icy?

    Just a thought. A cheap way would run a few screws into the wood. Do not fully sink them in. Leaving the head of the screw protruding enough to make a cleat. Not sure if it would work. But, in my mind it does.

      I bought some tape, thats like sand paper on the top side, and has a glow in the dark strip that I put on our wooden stairs at our last house. A quick shine of the flashlight and the strips will stay lit up for a few minutes. The grip was pretty solid too. Really helped on wet days and they lasted 3 years before starting to peel up.

        Double layer of chicken wire and fence staples.

          I was just about to post what Burtonboy suggested. If it doesn’t want to stick to the wood steps very well, hit it with a staple gun.

              The pic doesn't want to load. It's called grip tape.

                Cut pieces of steel catwalk grading and fasten it to the wooden stairway steps.

                    Just beat me to it. Easy peasy.

                      Exactly what I did - the adhesive doesn’t stay stuck to treated lumber for long so staples or something similar is required

                          Cut some strips of steel grating and screw them to the steps, won’t clog with mud like most grit based options.

                            Skateboard deck tape would work. Would just staple it.
