Square Nose Finish
It is used to create a smooth transition between a laminated floor and carpet or a sliding glass door. Square nose pieces may also be referred to as a baby threshold. Square Nose Reducers are very similar to Thresholds but have a more squared off edge.
Features
A Square Nose typically used with floating floor, is perfect for putting hard surface floors up against vertical obstacles, where a Quarter Round or Wall Base would be difficult to use to cover an expansion gap (brick wall, fireplace, sliding glass door, etc.)
The Square Nose overlaps the hardwood or laminate floor, hiding the expansion gap with the overlapped portion of the molding.
Features
Installation of a Square Nose would involve using construction adhesive to glue the transition piece to the subfloor and/or face nailing the piece to the subfloor using 8 penny finish nails.
