    Default Finishing between rooms

    I've got to tile onto floorboards so I'll be putting down 15 mm WBP board and screwing every 20cm etc. Once I've then added adhesive and floor tiles then the height difference between the tiled room and the carpeted floor in the hallway will be around 30mm. How do you finish this to make it look good as metallic door strips won't cover this difference will they?

    then use a normal tile to carpet strip'
