Laminate Flooring Edge Type: A Comprehensive Guide
Laminate flooring is an affordable way to achieve the authentic look of real hardwood floors in your home. The finishing touch to getting that real wood plank look is how the product edges are finished. Every style of laminate flooring we offer comes with either a beveled edge or a micro-beveled edge.
Types of Edge Treatments for Laminate Flooring
There are several different types of transition strips to help get the perfect finish on any laminate flooring edge, so understanding the different uses is important. Let's go over them now!
- Molding and Trim: This is the most common approach.
- Beveled Edge: A beveled edge is cut at an angle, creating a subtle slope that adds depth and visual interest to the flooring.
- Micro-Beveled Edge: A micro-beveled edge is similar to a beveled edge but has a more subtle slope, creating a smooth and sleek look.
- Flush Edge: A flush edge is a type of edge treatment that creates a seamless connection between the flooring and the surrounding surfaces.
- Rounded Edge: A rounded edge is a type of edge treatment that creates a smooth and rounded finish, ideal for high-traffic areas.
