Why lay the threshold stone first and then lay the wooden floor?
1. After the threshold stone is installed, whether it is a wooden floor or a ceramic tile, a certain expansion joint will be reserved, so as to ensure that the floor does not expand and contract, and the floor will not arch.
2. If the opposite method is adopted, the moisture of the cement mortar will penetrate into the floor, and the floor will not stick firmly, so there is no way to stick it tightly on the threshold stone.
3. Don't look at the threshold stone is only a small area, but it is easy to cause gaps, which will damage the threshold stone, and it is easy to accidentally damage the floor during installation, wasting materials. Therefore, we need to install the edge trim between the threshold stone and the wooden board, which is not only beautiful but also can cover the gap between the wooden board and the threshold stone, which is convenient for cleaning and care.
4. It is also possible to directly use the edge trim, such as stainless steel edge trim or copper edge trim to directly transition between the floor and the tile, without the need to use additional threshold stones, which is more simple and elegant.
5. At the same time, it is also good for the floor, it can level the ground, and the installation is more convenient and smooth.
In addition to this threshold stone, the edge strips in other positions are also very useful, such as wall decoration, corner closing, carpet transition, floor expansion joints, stairs anti-skid and so on.
