Hello mate, Genesis have an extensive range of profiles....Gaz

depending on budget you cud put in a schluter stair nose to highlight the step. these have a rubber grip and come in different widths and make a safe finish to the edge. Alternatively make a wedge shape ramp from a bit of timber to tuck under the carpet so levels meet then trim off with carpet to tile trim.

[Dave]

These profiles from schluter are good for this situation........




Schlüter-RENO-V is a profile with an adjustable arm for creating stepless transitions between floor coverings of different heights; e.g. the transition between tile and carpet. In addition, the profile effectively protects the edges of adjacent coverings.

The movable transition arm, via a ball-andsocket joint, allows the profi le to adjust to the height of the adjacent covering. Thus the occurrence of trip edges between coverings of different heights is eliminated. Schlüter-RENO-V is also suitable for heavy-duty applications (e.g. entrances to garages or loading docks). In such cases, the
adjustable arm is back-filled with mortar.


You can get these profiles from any CTD branch...they will have to be ordered in......

Thanks for that i will have a look later

topps tiles do door bars for different heights. Cheap and available in different finishes. also very easy to fit.

For anyone that has a difference in height between two floors. Go to a carpet/wood flooring specialist shop & ask for a Zig-Zag profile bar available in silver, gold, bronze etc. They are approx 3cm high and all you have to do is glue them to the floor and squash them down carefully with your foot.
Hope that helps

Just like this one....

[Scott the tiler]

Dave, very similar, that is the one normally 4 laminate or tiles to carpet. The other type is withour the gripper and used 4 wood flooring

[Dave]

But i think that is the type he wants for tiles to carpet..which he asked for......

There are some very good finishing profiles about at the minute...

[Scott the tiler]

He can use it on all types of height finishes. Its a one product fits all.

[CJ]

I personally hate the zig zag kind of bars.

Prefer the kind topps do..........base plate and then clip in top bar.

They do a transition strip for floors of diff heights

[Scott the tiler]

I agree CJ. Far superior profile. When I left UK not many shops sold them.

I used one of the types CJ refers to. I fitted it to my bathroom tile-carpet transition and also kitchen tile to wood floor as shown here.

Tiles were about 20mm above concrete floor and height difference to wood floor about 8mm. I screwed a piece of wood to the floor to take up excess depth then attached fixing strip to it.
