Hardwood Transitions

Transitions are usually required when a hardwood floor meets other types of floor material or floor-coverings.

While there are some “stock” transitions available to  purchase, many are not the right thickness, or are “clunky” in  appearance, necessarily being a compromise for a variety of needs.

We prefer to slim down the profile so that the transition is nearly level.


This is a decorative transition we needed to create to join two floors together that were at different elevations. The total difference between one floor and the other was about 1”, and we were able to do this over about a 6” distance. Below is another similar situation. This was a transition from a laminate floor to a hardwood floor after a wall was removed, exposing the elevation difference between the two floors.

The laminate floor was about 1” higher than the hardwood floor, plus was a “floating floor”, which had to be bonded at the edge of the floor so that a solid transition could be created. We made a solid laminated hardwood transition strip that was then screwed and plugged into place, providing an attractive and solid transition that was not a tripping point for foot traffic between rooms.


Another example, showing the need for a transition from a hardwood floor to a brick mudroom. This was almost 1-1/2” difference in elevation.
