Begin by taking a pre-cut carpet stair tread and placing it on the first visible step. Use a tape measure to check its width and ensure it is centered and aligned properly on the stair. The video shows measuring from the edge of the stair to the edge of the tread to confirm consistent placement. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure perfect alignment before permanently attaching.
