threshold

House built in 1979. I believe it was built with the PVC sliding door which we've recently replaced for an aluminium door (as part of a much bigger project). As per the photos, there is a gap between floorboards and rear of door (threshold?) and I can see down the cavity. The DPC is two courses...

Hi, I need to replace the seal on the threshold of a 2004 UPVC back door fitted by EYG in 2004. I can't find the same threshold or a replacement seal for it anywhere so wondering if anyone on here recognises it and can point me in the right direction. Its an aluminium strip as shown in the...

Solutions for this cavity against the wall below door frame. Looks like previous had new flooring installed. The threshold going outside is fine.

Hello, I would really appreciate any advice. I want to finish off this patio door installation properly (the builder has fecked off and won’t return my calls). The door has been installed on top of the internal timber frame. There is then a cavity, and a single brick foundation with concrete...

So I’m fitting 14mm engineered click flooring, floating on 3mm underlay. i want to put a matwell by the front door. Looking out toward the front door there is a bathroom door on the left , hinge side nearest the front door (the door is off in this pic) . I was looking at 40mm wide oak L sections...

Hi I'm replacing the flooring on the ground floor of my house, with click and lock engineered flooring. I'll be laying it in the hallway, front room and dining room. The current click on lock flooring doesn't use any threshold strips between rooms and I'd like to replicate this. I'm not sure...

I know this has been posted many times before and I have spent time looking at those threads. I'd just like confirmation from those more knowledgeable that what I'm about to do is correct. The builder has left me a shell of a garage and what will be a utility room on the back. The floor levels...

Hi I've been on this website many times - thanks for all your helpful responses to posts !! Posting myself for the first time... I'm replacing a sliding patio door with french doors - I've got an existing 5cm threshold and I'm getting mixed advice about removing it or not. - If I remove it...

Hi, I have removed the sliding door between dining room and conservatory, but with the 20mm insulation and underfloor heating mats, there will be approx 30-35mm height difference between the two floors. I want to lay the same laminate through both rooms with as seamless a threshold as possible...

Hi all, We are trying to find a threshold door bar that goes from laminate to carpet. The problem I seem to be having is which strip to use. The laminate is 10mm thick and the underlay for the laminate is 5mm thick. The carpet I was planning on getting is 20mm thick. I have tried searching for...

Hi all. Our external door has a draft on one side, this is due to the seals on the underside of the door being damaged when the previous owners let the door drop. I've asked a door parts site for advice, but they think the part fitted is now obsolete. My question is, where can I find a T...

I have a bifold door with a DV14 threshold. I am planning to run a channel drain, but do I butt it up next to the threshold, or place it underneath. I plan to run somedecking to to the doors, but would this then butt up to the drain or go over the top? I have created a sketchup to try to...

See attached photo...need to bridge a threshold. The tiles are a bit higher on one side than the other - about 16mm above the wood floor on one end but only about 12mm at the other end (everything in this place is a bit wonky!). Can anyone suggest a good way to bridge the threshold please? The...

Hello. I'm concerned about my backdoor as we have had some heavy rain in the last day and I noticed a wet patch in the concrete that meets the corner of the door frame. Somehow water is making its way into the house through both edges of the door. I have always had concerns over the...

I have wooden floorboards that are getting a bit too squeaky. so I am going to lift the carpet. I hope it wont be too trixy The thresholds look like the images below. But I'm not totally sure the best way to lift them as they look flimsy and not sure how they are attached so don't know how to...

Hi guys n gals, Tackling some laminate, but its the first time iv come across these wooden door thresholds. The carpet has just been laid, so modifying that is a no go. What is the best way to deal with the expansion gap at this end? They are at the door between bedroom and hallway, but also...

I am putting down new floors in a downstairs WC (tile) and adjoining hallway (12mm laminate). I was looking at transitions between the two and was really hoping to achieve a really minimalist finish like the attached pic Is this possible with laminate flooring that is essentially 'floating'...

Hi folks, I have a bit of a challenge, I’d appreciate help with, please. The hardwood threshold was rotten right Through on our lower ground floor (Victorian) front door. I’ve pulled it out, removed a few bricks, and am trying to place a new one in its place. The trouble is the ground level...

I bought some threshold strips that have a pretty useless adhesive strip on them. Already tried it and it failed within a day as the floor is concrete. So I thought the next best thing is maybe a glue. No more nails, gorilla glue? etc.. I know some glues melt plastics, so what's the best...

My first question is, my architect has not included a level threshold detail for my bifold doors. Can I differ from the drawing without having it approved? Can my BCI just approve a method? can someone explain or show me the detail for a level threshold? (Beam and block floor) I would’ve...
