End Molding – Carpet Reducer Solid Wood
$69.99

Pre-Finish End Molding – Carpet Reducer / Threshold Coordinating moldings are available for all styles and colors of any Hardwood flooring you choose. Available use for Hardwood thickness – 3/4", 9/16", 7/16", 1/2", 5/16", 3/8" This piece is typically used at exterior doorways as a transition between flooring and the doorway threshold. It can also be used as a transition from wood floors to different flooring surfaces when the reducer won’t do, such as on high-pile carpet or thick ceramic tile. Installing Hardwood Moldings and Transitions Installation Tips: • Moldings should be acclimated 48 hours Moldings must be pre-drilled to avoid splitting whenever they are to be secured with nails or fasteners. • The tool of choice for cutting hardwood moldings is a 10 or 12” motorized miter saw with pre-set adjustments for the basic miter cuts at 22.5o, 45o, and 90o. A carbide tipped blade makes the best cuts. Be sure the saw blade is positioned to cut into the finished face • On Wall Base or Quarter Round moldings, never restrict the hardwood floor’s natural contraction/expansion movement by driving the fasteners at a downward angle. Attach the moldings to the wall or vertical surface. • Always miter cuts rather than having butt cuts when splicing. Decide the direction of the miter by cutting the molding with the long point oriented in the same direction as your natural line of vision when you enter the room. Threshold – This molding is used at exterior doorways as a transition between flooring and the doorway threshold. It also can be used to transition a wood floor to different floor types to make them fit together perfectly, such as high pile carpeting or tile. Another typical use for a threshold is to conceal the expansion space between the flooring and a vertical surface such as fireplace hearths and sliding glass doors. Installation: Lay the threshold molding in place to determine a proper fit. The threshold molding should overlap the flooring by 1/2” to 3/4” leaving the balance for expansion. To attach the threshold, nail into the subfloor behind the lip of the molding. Be sure when nailing not to obstruct the floors expansion space. Installations Staircases and Transitions molding
