The Teddington Lock. A golden faux sisal stair runner with a navy border

A beautiful golden sisal stair runner. Get that look and texture of natural sisal — without any of the upkeep and hassle.

In fact it looks so real it is almost impossible to tell ikt isn't real sisal!

This runner is designed for a straight staircase with two taped sides, a fetching navy coloured border either side provides great contrast between the sisal and the stairs.

🌿Why Faux Sisal Is Better Than Real Sisal (Especially for Stairs)

Faux sisal is engineered to mimic the beautiful, organic look of traditional sisal, but solves every problem that natural sisal brings to staircases:

• Water-resistant: Real sisal stains instantly with water — even clean water. Faux sisal does not, making it far more forgiving on busy stairs.

• Easier to clean: Unlike natural sisal, which absorbs spills and is almost impossible to spot-clean, faux sisal can be cleaned with standard carpet care methods.

• More durable: The man-made fibres resist fraying and wear, making it ideal for high-traffic staircases where natural sisal simply doesn’t cope well.

• Consistent colour: Faux sisal doesn’t develop dark patches, fading, or uneven tones the way real sisal can.

• Pet and family friendly: No fibre-shedding or rough texture — and it stands up well to pets' claws and daily use.

You get the same textured, timeless look of real sisal, but with a finish designed for modern living.
