FAQs

What is the main purpose of this threshold strip?

Its main purpose is to create a clean, professional, and safe transition between two adjoining floor surfaces, such as between rooms or different flooring types, while also protecting the edges of the flooring.

Do I need any special tools to install it?

No, this strip features a self-adhesive backing, meaning no drilling or tools are typically required for installation. You may need a saw if you need to cut it to size.

What types of flooring can this be used with?

It is ideal for laminate, wood, and vinyl flooring, effectively bridging gaps and creating a smooth surface.

How wide is the strip and how much gap can it cover?

The strip is a flat cover trim measuring 40mm wide and 3mm thick. It is designed to cover typical joints and expansion gaps between flooring surfaces.

Can this strip be used outdoors?

This product is designed for indoor use to create transitions between interior floor surfaces. It is not intended for outdoor applications.

How should I clean the threshold strip?

Clean the strip with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to preserve the walnut effect finish.

What is the length of the threshold strip?

The threshold strip is 900mm (approximately 35.4 inches) long.

Troubleshooting

Threshold strip not adhering properly.

Ensure the floor surface is completely clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any old adhesive or residue. Reapply pressure firmly along the entire length.

Adhesive loses grip over time.

This can happen with heavy foot traffic or if the surface was not properly prepared. For a more permanent solution, consider using a strong flooring adhesive in conjunction with the self-adhesive backing, or mechanical fixings if appropriate for the flooring.

Strip is too long for the doorway.

Measure the required length accurately and cut the aluminium strip using a metal hacksaw or fine-tooth saw. File any rough edges smooth.

Walnut effect finish is scratched or damaged.

Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with a very soft cloth. For significant damage, the strip may need to be replaced. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy, tool-free installation saves time and effort.
  • Durable aluminium construction ensures longevity.
  • Attractive walnut effect finish enhances flooring aesthetics.
  • Effectively hides unsightly joints and expansion gaps.
  • Suitable for a variety of flooring types like laminate, wood, and vinyl.

Cons

  • Adhesion quality depends heavily on surface preparation.
  • May not be suitable for very heavy traffic areas where extreme durability is paramount.
  • The 900mm length may require cutting for smaller transitions.
  • Self-adhesive may be less permanent than mechanical fixings in certain conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the floor surfaces meeting at the threshold are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or debris. A thorough vacuuming and wiping with a dry cloth is recommended.
  2. Measure and cut the threshold strip to the required length using an appropriate metal saw if necessary. Ensure cuts are clean and smooth.
  3. Peel back a portion of the self-adhesive backing.
  4. Carefully align the strip with the joint or gap between the floor surfaces.
  5. Press down firmly, starting from the center and working outwards, to ensure full contact and adhesion.
  6. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to fully cure before exposing to heavy foot traffic.

Compatibility:

This threshold strip is designed for use with:

  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood flooring
  • Vinyl flooring
  • Similar floor types where a transition strip is needed.

It is suitable for joining surfaces of similar heights or where one surface is slightly lower than the other, provided the gap is within the trim's coverage.

Care:

  • Clean the strip with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the walnut effect finish.
  • Regularly check the adhesion, especially in high-traffic areas, and re-press if any lifting occurs.
