If the treads look like something you would like in your entry, then do a search on Roppe.com website. You would have to buy thru a retail store in your area. Not the box stores. Although, I have seen some paper thin treads at Menards.
The treads come in various lengths. Usually, I get a 6 foot piece and maybe a rubber tile for the bottom step.  The item is raised round.  Their website doesn't give a product number.  Black was what I used in Dans coach. Fawn color has been quite popular. Adhere them with contact cement

Nice shop Roland. Looks like a pretty wide bed jointer there!

Looks great Roland! Did you do the drawer fronts or did you have FOT do it. FOT did ours.

Oh yeah...That's my new floor and the remnants of the paper bag floor.

Shaw High Point from Lowes. "Luxury" glue down vinyl plank. 

Shop Shaw High Point 12 36-Piece 5.91-in x 36.22-in Aurora Glue Down Bamboo...

I installed it on top of the paperbag floor. Decided to install on a 45º to add some interest. It also added a lot of time to the install. The vinyl was easy to work with. Just used a razor knife and straight edge for straight cuts and paper templates and free hand to do intricate cuts ( had more than a few of those! ).

So far we really like it. Durable and easy to clean. It was about $500 (including glue) to do the whole coach. Did not cover the seat pedestals. Did pay a price with my knees, legs, and back though!

If anybody wants to check it out come by at the not-rally in Quartzite.

I saved my back and knees by paying my nephew for the install. Was tough enough on my back putting the oak a walnut on the pedestal
