FAQs
How do I cut the threshold to the correct length?
Use a hacksaw to cut the aluminium profile to the required length. Measure accurately before cutting.
What tools do I need for installation?
You'll need a measuring tape, hacksaw (for cutting), contact adhesive or screws/nails (for fixing the base), and potentially a rubber mallet.
What type of adhesive should I use?
Use a suitable contact adhesive designed for the materials of your subfloor.
Can I use this threshold outdoors?
This threshold is designed for indoor use. Avoid prolonged exposure to the elements.
How do I remove the threshold if I need to?
Carefully pry up the threshold, removing it from the clips. If using adhesive, you may need to use a scraper and remove any residual adhesive.
Are screws provided?
No, screws are not provided. You will need to supply your own screws or nails suitable for your subfloor material.
Troubleshooting
Threshold is not level.
Adjust the clips and ensure the base is securely fixed. Check for any obstructions under the threshold.
Clips are difficult to attach.
Ensure the clips are properly aligned with the base channel. Use a rubber mallet for assistance.
The threshold is not wide enough to cover the gap.
Double-check the measurement and ensure you have the correct width. Consider using multiple threshold pieces if necessary.
