Transitions that Transform: Solutions for Multi-Family Housing
Multi-family projects pose unique challenges for new construction and remodels.
While LVT continues to dominate shared spaces such as living rooms, kitchens, and hallways due to its many configurations, carpet is regaining popularity for its domestic availability, relative low cost, and the warm, soft feeling it adds to bedrooms and other living areas.
However, finding a durable, purpose-made transition that protects LVT and the flooring it adjoins has been almost impossible until now.
Bonnell Aluminum's Futura Transitions offers a full line of trims and transitions that includes options for various LVT products as well as carpet and ceramic. These products are made from anodized aluminum, making them durable, recyclable, and compatible with most ADA compliant installations.
Existing Ceramic Solutions
For many multi-family renovations, ceramic tile outlasts the flooring adjacent to it, posing a challenge for installers and contractors. The Futura Transitions ETR profile allows for 3mm flooring such as LVT to be installed next to ceramic tile without disturbing the tile installation.
