FAQs

What type of flooring can this threshold be used on?

This threshold is suitable for use on laminate, wood, vinyl, and carpet flooring edges. It is designed for internal applications on clean, flat surfaces.

Do I need special tools to install this threshold?

No, the threshold features a strong self-adhesive backing, meaning no drilling or screws are required for installation. Basic tools like a measuring tape and a suitable cutting tool (if shortening) may be needed.

How should I clean the aluminium threshold?

Clean the threshold with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the grey effect finish.

What is the profile size of the threshold?

The profile size of the aluminium corner threshold is 25mm x 20mm.

Can this threshold be used outdoors?

This product is designed for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements may affect its appearance and adhesive performance.

What if the 900mm length is too long for my needs?

The aluminium threshold can be cut to the desired length using appropriate metal cutting tools, such as a fine-toothed hacksaw.

How long will the self-adhesive backing last?

When applied correctly to a clean, dry, and suitable surface, the self-adhesive backing is designed for durable, long-term performance within a residential setting.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive not sticking well

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned, dried, and free of dust, oil, or wax. Re-apply pressure along the entire length. For compromised adhesion, consider using a strong, compatible double-sided tape or adhesive specifically designed for flooring trims.

Trim is difficult to cut

Use a fine-toothed hacksaw or a metal cutting disc on an angle grinder for cleaner cuts. Ensure the trim is securely held while cutting to prevent movement.

Edge of trim is damaged

Handle the trim carefully during installation. If minor damage occurs during cutting, use fine-grit sandpaper to smooth the edge, but avoid over-sanding the finish.

Threshold moves after installation

Ensure adequate pressure was applied during installation. Clean the surface again and re-apply with additional strong adhesive if needed. Check for any underlying surface imperfections that may be causing movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the floor surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or debris. For best adhesion, the surface should be smooth.
  2. Measure the area where the threshold will be applied and cut the aluminium trim to the required length using a suitable metal cutting tool if necessary.
  3. Peel back a small section of the adhesive backing tape from one end.
  4. Carefully align the threshold with the edge of the floor or step.
  5. Press down firmly along the entire length of the threshold, ensuring good contact with the surface. Use a cloth or roller for even pressure.

Compatibility:

This threshold is designed for use with various flooring types including laminate, wood, vinyl, and carpet edges. It is suitable for internal use on flat surfaces and edges.

Care:

Clean the surface of the threshold with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild detergent can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
