Carpet to Tiles - step greater than 20mm

BigBertie · 8 Nov 2010

Following the re-tiling of the bathroom floor, I now have a height difference of around 20mm to the landing carpet (I haven't measured exactly, but certainly no less than 20mm.)

Any suggestion to how I could neatly join the two? Previously I was using a trim for different heights, but this only works when the hight difference is up to about 7mm.

The sub-floor is wood, if that makes a difference.

Cheers

You can get ramp edge plates in a variety of finishes...

pop into your local independant retailer (with measurements) and they will sort you out

I like to plane down a strip of hardwood against tiles, stops them chipping and can be made to measure.

These would be ideal, available in different heights too:

You can buy various hardwood profiles from most floor retailers that will cope with 20mm height difference. Or... make one from a piece of 20mm flooring..
