Floor strip

Post by kinks01 »

Afternoon all oracles

I need to put a strip between the carpet and some tiles in an entrance hall but the span is 62" wide where can you get the brass strips this wide.

Gave looked at the usuall screw fix and other places but theey are all 0.9m long.

Any help would be appreciated

All you will get from DIY places is as you say the short lengths or the tacky screw down cover strips which they supply in longer lengths.

Go to a proper flooring suppliers and ask for a 'Z' bar. Your local carpet shop will even order you in a length of it. They come in 2.4M lengths.
