STEP 3 • INSTALL YOUR MOLDINGS
Each individual package includes the following:
2. Track 3. Shim
1. Leave a 1-1/2” space between the two surfaces to be joined.
2. Separate the shims into two separate pieces of even widths where folded. Use a utility knife if needed.
NOTE: The universal shim is provided in one single piece. After separating, follow the specic diagrams in these instructions for
shim assembly with your ooring height.
3. If installing as a T-Moulding or Hard Surface Reducer only, remove the narrow portion of each of the two shim pieces. DO NOT
remove this piece if installing as carpet transition or end moulding.
4. Measure the area where the moulding will be installed. Transfer measurements to the moulding cover, shims and track
and trim to t.
5. Using proper shim conguration as outlined, begin install of shims and track. Using a polyurethane glue, place a bead of glue
between the suboor and bottom shim, between the shims (if needed for conguration), and between the top shim and track.
Ensure that excess glue is not used so that oating oor cannot bind to track. Once glue is applied with track and shim(s) in place,
fasten the shims and track to the suboor using wood screws or ring shank nails.
If installing onto concrete suboor, drill anchor holes using a 3/16” diameter concrete drill bit, and utilize concrete anchors and
screws. With shim and track fastened, you are now able to install the transition cover onto the track.
6. Line up cover with track. Start at one end and use a rubber mallet to tap the track and cover together. Push down rmly onto track,
working from one end to the other.
