• Hard flooring transitions – what are the options?

    Published on 28 Jul 2024

    When transitioning between different types of flooring or even between rooms, it’s essential to create a smooth and visually appealing transition. Most people want their flooring to flow seamlessly from one area to another without disruptions or awkward breaks. Here are some popular flooring transition options that blend beautifully with your flooring and ensure durability. 

    Aluminium Trim / C Channel 

    Aluminium trims provide a tidy clean finish. They are ideal for transitioning from floors to ranch sliders/external doorways and come in 3 different colours black, sand and silver - additionally they can be powder coated to match your preferred shade. 

     

    T Moulding  

    A T-Moulding transition strip is used when two hard flooring types that are the same height meet, often used in doorways to provide a visually and practical transition between two rooms. 

     

    End Cap

    When transitioning from carpet to hard flooring such as laminate, tile or solid timber and end cap is used to bridge between the two surfaces. End caps are also suitable for positioning next to aluminium C-channel, providing a neat 90 degree angle.

     

    Reducer 

    A reducer is used when you want to transition from one type of flowing to another type that sits lower e.g. vinyl, tile or concrete.  

     

    4 in 1 Smart Profile 

    The 4 in 1 smart profile can be either an end cap, reducer, t moulding or a stair nosing option. Each of the 4 profiles are also available separately for different applications.
