Thresholds
A threshold is a section of hardwood that is used to divide or provide a means for two different floor coverings to meet. Generally these are installed in doorways, there may be carpet in one room and ceramic tiles in another and the threshold is designed to cover the edge of the tile and provide a cove fit for the carpet.
Composite Joinery regularily provide bespoke thresholds. Such thresholds are provided as ’supply only’ or we will install for you. Available in a variety of hardwoods and hardwood combinations. Read more about this, and view some examples.
Floor Restoration
The series of photographs show a damaged floor before and after restoration. Mahogany, Sapele, Maple, Ebony and teak are some of the hardwoods used in the construction of this parquet floor.
The following images show the finished floor after several coats of floor varnish. The remaining thresholds, not seen here, were completed at a later date after decoration.
To compliment this entrance hall floor Composite Joinery designed and manufactured new stair balusters, handrail, radiator cover and a small ‘deco style’ hall cupboard. These bespoke items are constructed using the combination of Sapele and Maple.
