    This is typical of what I use. Self adhesive in gold ,silver or wood effect. Inexpensive and quick to fit.

    I prefer to fit an L shaped trim and have the Carpet fitted to the trim. Much cleaner finish in my opinion.....

    Z bars for me also, either screw them to a wooden floor or use grip fill on concrete.

    Probably the only thing i buy from Topps are some transition strips they sell that take up a 15mm height differance.
    Sometimes what i do is put about a 2 inch wide strip of 6mm ply under the carpet underlay at the edge going from the door way casings.
    This brings up the carpet floor level and you dont notice a hard edge with the underlay and carpet over the ply
