Following great advice from Gripdeck and having received some sample materials I decided to install Retrogrip anti-slip strips to overcome issues with slippery decking outside our back door in winter.
The deck was scrubbed and fully dried in preparation. I ordered 50M of Retrogrip strips which were supplied with all the fixing products included.
The area immediately outside the back door has quite heavy foot fall and so was to be “glued & screwed”. This area was approx 1M square. The Retrogrip strips to be screwed were pre-drilled and countersunk (this took some time to make a hole guide and care to do).
The installation was straightforward: the bonding/sealant supplied was excellent to use and achieved a very effective bond. The Pre-drilled strips were a little fiddly to screw down the following day when the bonding had gone off but the results was a really solid fixing.
Overall an excellent result; I would highly recommend Retrogrip.
I would say that the use of additional screw fixing is probably overkill for most applications except very heavy commercial footfall areas as the supplied bond/sealant is so good. If you choose to pre-drill the strips have lots of 3mm drill bits to hand !

Very helpful, good customer service
