Dec 23 2015 installing laminate flooring transition at sliding glass door.
Laminate flooring transition to sliding glass door.
Make use of various t molds that are available for your laminate here.
This bottom part can make it easy or hard depending on the shape of it.
If the floor slopes up it will cause a hollow space underneath.
The bottom part of the frame on the floor is where the transition will meet.
Trim with a 1 8 inch gap after the flooring has been laid.
Place a piece of threshold trim available at the flooring supplier next to patio doors or similar thresholds where you need to stop the laminate flooring.
If it slopes down your transition will not sit on the floor properly.
There are different types of frames around sliding glass doors.
Measure the lip of the threshold s trim and leave enough clearance between the door and the flooring to install the threshold.
Knowing where the transition will be placed is important so you will know where to stop the laminate when installing it up to the sliding glass doors.
