FAQs
Can I cut this strip to a specific length?
Yes, the metal strip can be easily cut to your desired length using a standard metal hacksaw.
Is this strip suitable for uneven floor heights?
The Z-edge design is specifically intended to handle the transition between carpet and hard surfaces, which often have slight height differences.
Are the mounting screws visible after installation?
Yes, the screws remain visible, providing a rugged and industrial aesthetic consistent with the bronze finish.
Can I use this on concrete subfloors?
Yes, you can install this on concrete, but you will need appropriate masonry drill bits and potentially wall anchors not included in the package.
Does the finish fade over time?
The high-quality finish is designed for durability; however, cleaning with abrasive pads should be avoided to preserve the bronze color.
Troubleshooting
The strip is not sitting flush against the floor
Check for debris under the strip and ensure the subfloor is level before tightening the screws.
Difficulty drilling into hard tile
Use a specialized masonry drill bit to create the pilot holes before inserting the screws.
The strip feels loose after installation
Verify that you are using the correct screw length and that the pilot holes are not too wide for the provided fasteners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a power drill, a screwdriver, and a hacksaw for resizing. First, measure the threshold width and cut the strip to size. Place the strip in the desired location and mark the drill holes on your subfloor. Secure the strip using the provided screws. For maintenance, simply wipe the metal surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or harsh chemicals, as these may tarnish the bronze/copper finish over time.
