Flooring trims are used to protect floor edges, manage transitions between floor coverings and create a cleaner, more professional finish across commercial and residential flooring installations. Commonly installed with carpet, LVT, wood, laminate, stone and ceramic flooring, floor trim profiles help improve the durability, safety and appearance of adjoining floor surfaces.
Available in aluminium, brass, stainless steel and PVC finishes, flooring trims are commonly used to accommodate floor height differences, protect exposed flooring edges and allow for expansion movement within flooring installations.
Why Expansion Gaps Matter in Flooring Installations
Flooring Trims are the perfect solutions when requiring expansion, especially for wood flooring.
Wood floors need an expansion gap, as wood naturally expands with changes in conditions. For example, high humidity causes the wood to take in moisture and expand, whilst low humidity causes it to release moisture and contract.
Our Timberline profiles are designed to offer this solution, allowing for expansion with timber floor installations such as oak flooring. They are also suitable for ceramic and timber floors.
