3" Thick Hickory Stair Tread - Signature

Upgrade your staircase with the bold character and unmatched hardness of real hardwood. The 3" Hickory Stair Tread brings natural character and lasting strength to any staircase — whether you're building new or refreshing an existing set of stairs.

At a classic 3" thick, the tread's solid engineered core is clad in a Hickory hardwood wear layer on all 6 sides, delivering stunning face grain from every angle — never edge grain. A 1/8" roundover on every edge completes the refined, finished look. The 3" profile is the timeless middle ground — offering genuine visual presence and a sense of craftsmanship while remaining proportionally at home across traditional, transitional, and contemporary applications alike.

Why Hickory?

Hickory is the most characterful domestic hardwood species — and the hardest. Its dramatic interplay of creamy white sapwood and warm amber-brown heartwood, punctuated by bold, sweeping grain, brings unmistakable energy to any staircase. With an unrivaled Janka rating of 1,820 — the highest of any domestic hardwood — Hickory is exceptionally resistant to denting, scratching, and the demands of heavy daily use. No two Hickory treads carry the same figure. The natural variation in color and grain ensures every staircase is genuinely one of a kind.
