A stair tread cover suitable for covering at least one step in a staircase. The stair tread cover includes at least a front portion and a back portion. The front and back portion each have a top surface and a bottom surface. At least one adhesive or tacky region is optionally positioned on the bottom surface of the front portion of the stair tread cover, and at least one gripping region is optionally positioned on the top surface of the front portion of the stair tread cover.

The present invention relates to a support post (2) comprising at least two tubes (4, 6) telescopically in sliding connection to each other. A locking device (8) holds the tubes in a locked state and allowing relative sliding of the tubes in an unlocked state. At least one end (10) of the support post has an opening (12; 112) in connection with a surface support element (14; 114). A spring is arranged within the opening of the support post to act on the surface support element (14; 114), to resiliently affect the surface support element (14; 114) in a direction away from the open end (10) of the support post and vice versa. The locking device (8) comprises a locking ring loosely arranged on one of the tubes (4) and further comprises a first ring holding arm arranged at one end of the other tube (6); the first ring holding arm having a first recess for retaining the locking ring in loose arrangement around said tube (4) with limited movability. A lever is in engagement with the spring and arranged in a first position in an unstressed condition of the spring. The lever is arranged in a second position in a stressed condition of the spring. By moving the lever from the first position to the second position, and vice versa, resiliently affect the surface support element (14; 114) in a direction to and from the open end (10) of the support post (2). The surface support element is arranged to be installed on a floor, and the lever is a pedal.

A system, comprises a first pulley and a first pulley mount constructed and arranged to couple the first pulley to a curtain including a zipper. The first pulley mount comprises a first portion and a second portion that are removably coupled to each other with a portion of the curtain between them when mounted to the curtain. A second pulley in included along with a second pulley mount constructed and arranged to couple the second pulley in position relative to the curtain. An elongated pull is coupled to the first pulley, the second pulley, and a zipper pull of the zipper.

A housing is constructed and arranged to be mounted to a curtain. The housing can include an aperture. Upon installation of the housing to the curtain, a portion of the curtain is removed in the region of the aperture. A flexible air duct can be presented through the aperture.

A method for protecting a fixture mounted to a wall or ceiling of a building to protect the fixture from dust. The method includes the step of applying a double side adhesive tape over a peripheral side of the fixture. A cover having a narrow elastic peripheral opening is donned over the fixture and the periphery of the cover can adhere to the exposed side of the tape.
