Reducers are the transition strips that finish off a hardwood floor where it meets up to another hard surface such as sheet vinyl, concrete, or any hard surface that is generally lower than the new wood. These transitions are not generally used when the wood matches up to other hardwoods, tile, or carpet. Here’s what we use where:
T-molds: Use to transition hardwood to tile, brick, other wood.
Reducer: Use to transition hardwood to vinyl products or bare concrete.
Baby Threshold: Use to transition hardwood to carpet.
Stairnose: Use to transition hardwood at a step or edge.
These strips generally come 78” long so they can be split to finish off two doors. We have included a cost of $55 each for these transitions, but the price can vary. Prices are dependent on species and brand.
