Laminate and Cork Hard Surface Reducers
Hard Surface Reducer is used to transition floor coverings of differing heights and constructions. For example,
laminate floor to linoleum. It can also be used to border a fireplace or a threshold.
Step 1.
Attach the U-track to the hard surface reducer. Position the U-
track/hard surface reducer on the subfloor between the laminate
flooring and other flooring. Mark on the subfloor where the U-track
will be installed. Mark on the other flooring how much to trim if
necessary.
Step 2.
Fasten the U-track to the subfloor with a ¼ X 1” flat head screws. The
screw holes should already been predrilled. Trim the other flooring.
Step 3.
Fasten the hard surface reducer into the track. Begin by inserting at
one end of the track. Push the post portion into the track. Continue
insertion using a rolling motion until all the whole length of the hard
surface reducer post is inserted. Press down to ensure maximum
track hold on the hard surface reducer.
Step. 4
Installation is complete.
Step 5.
Prevent damage. When moving heavy object across the hard surface reducer, do not drag the heavy object
across the top of it. Place plywood board over it and roll the object on the plywood.
