Installation Procedures
Installation of T-Molding
- Screw or nail a temporary spacer block, 1/2″ wide and a minimum of a 1/2″ in height, to the subfloor.
- Add an additional spacer, cut to the width of the required expansion zone, to installation side of the spacer block.
- Install the hardwood up to the expansion zone spacer.
- Leave spacer block and expansion zone spacers in place and complete the entire hardwood floor installation.
- Remove Spacers.
- Attach T-Molding pieces with nails (6d finish nails) or Bruce Glue Assist Pro Adhesive or construction adhesive.*
- Always predrill the T-Molding pieces with the appropriate size drill bit to avoid cracking or splitting the T-Molding pieces.
- To allow the hardwood flooring to expand and contract freely, never fasten the T-Molding pieces to hardwood flooring.
* When installing over radiant heated subfloors always use adhesive to attach molding pieces to the substrate.
NOTE: Due to height differences when transitioning hardwood flooring to existing flooring or vertical surfaces, it may be necessary to rip saw or shim transition pieces to achieve desired height.
