Im going to lay Hanwood Delta Grey throughout my whole house. Its not a big house, just 140m2
https://www.bunnings.com.au/hanwood-5mm-2-64m-delta-grey-hybrid-waterproof-flooring_p0522415
I was wanting to do transition strips at each rooms doorway to allow for expansion. I'm in the snowies, so gets -10C to close to 40C so would imagine that there would be reasonable amount of movement.
I havent been able to come across anything that would look good to use as a transition strip under each doorway.
It doesnt seem that Hanwood make anything thats specific to their flooring they make, which to me was a bit weird.
I found some similar profile strips from online sellers, however their products seem to be for 8mm flooring.
I would like some advice as to what people tend to do for their flooring
Hi @Bender,
Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.
Generally speaking, there is no need for transition strips between doorways unless you are using different flooring types or planning to change the orientation of the flooring. With floating floors, generally, the flooring is continued through the doorway and the required expansion gaps run around the perimeter of the room concealed by scotia such as this Hanwood Grey Oak Vinyl Wrap Floating Floor Scotia Trim.
If you are planning to use different flooring of the same thickness, transition trims like this Roberts Silver Trim Expansion Joint or Roberts Pewter Hammered Cover Strip Trim can be used. If the flooring is different thicknesses, something like this Roberts Bronze Junior Ramp Floating Floor Trim can be used.
Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
