Description

NW 1075 Series Maple Wood Reducer Transition Molding 46″

The Maple 46″ NW 1075 Reducer Transition is designed to install when the height difference from the floor to the top of the surface that the lip of the NW 1075 Reducer Transition will cover is 3/8″.

The Nelson Watson Solid Wood Flooring Transition Reducers are designed to provide a functional, durable, eye pleasing transition floor trim between two uneven flooring surfaces. The most common applications include use as a tile to wood floor transition, a carpet to tile transition and a vinyl to laminate transition. Some other applications include use as a wood to wood flooring transition, a carpet to wood floor transition trim and wood to vinyl transition. Most of the Nelson Watson Solid Wood Flooring Transition Moldings have a ½″ inset (relief) which is ideal as a floating floor transition trim piece. The ½″inset allows the recommended ¼″ clearance which allows the flooring to expand and contract with seasonal humidity and temperature changes, preventing the floor from buckling. I offer Solid Wood Flooring Transition Reducers that transcend flooring height differences that range from 1/8″ to 7/8″.

As a flooring contractor before devoting my full attention to the manufacture and sales of the Nelson Watson Solid Wood Flooring Transition Moldings I found several ways to customize the use of the line of Reducers. One of the unique qualities of the Reducer is that an offset t-molding can be created by adding a wood spacer underneath the Reducer to create the desired height difference needed to transcend the two floors. This application was especially valuable when installing a free floating floor next to a glued or nailed down floor. The ½” wide spacer attached to the Reducer and leaving a 9/16” gap between the two floors allowed me an area that I could nail or glue down the created offset t-molding while allowing the required ¼” needed for the free floating floor to expand and contract. Another application that I often used especially on solid hardwood flooring was to cut off the lip of the Reducer for a flush application. This was handy because of the different thicknesses of the flooring required a modified transition trim piece that I had readily available. Please contact me with any questions that you may have concerning the use of the Nelson Watson Solid Wood Flooring Transition 46″ Maple Reducer Molding. You may get the answering machine at times but I will promptly return your call.
