What is Carpet floor transition profile?

Often in interiors, whether it is a residence, an office, an institution, hospital or a hotel, there are different floor finishes like a carpet or a wooden flooring may be laid adjacent and sometimes over a floor with tile or stone finish. Besides the joint, sometimes there may be a slight level difference between different materials.

Be it sloped transition or a same height transition, and whichever the two adjacent material finishes of the floor may be, a Floor transition strip or a floor transition profile would be an ideal solution.

Where do we use Carpet floor transition profile?

Whenever there is use of two different flooring material in interiors, a floor transition profile is recommended. Even if the two materials are at the same level, the joint protection will be required for longevity. In case there is a level difference in the two finishes, there would be required a sloped transition profile.

Especially, if the floor areas are big enough, a significant contraction and expansion of floor materials may also happen, resulting in cracks in floor. A floor transition profile is an ideal solution to mitigate this problem as well.

By what other names Carpet floor transition profile is also known as?

Carpet floor transition profile is a misnomer in a way. Since, most often, a carpet is used in conjunction with other finishes, such a floor transition profile is also called carpet floor transition profile or a carpet edge trim.

Another way of nomenclature used by some architects in many countries is to call a same height floor transition profile as just a transition profile. And they may address a transition profile in a sloped transition as a compensation profile or an adapter profile.

In fact, this is one product, which has a huge range of names by which it is addressed in various markets.

The entire profile has a slight curve to adapt to the height difference. The fixing detail allows the screw head to rotate to adapt to the different heights. The slot for the screw head accommodates various sizes of screws to allow the use of maximum length for best anchoring to the floor substrate.

In this floor profile edge trim, screw heads are inserted in a groove on bottom side of the trim and the profile is hammered in softly with a mallet from top side. The protruding screws at bottom get securely anchored in the flooring base material. The flexibility of the screw head in the groove provides an optimal leeway to adjust a height level upto 10 to 12 mm easily.
