Transitions
Philadelphia Transitions & Moldings
Philadelphia Commercial offers a complete line of flooring transitions and moldings to help you finish your floor the right way. Whether you're installing luxury vinyl tile (LVT), engineered vinyl plank (EVP), or another type of hard surface flooring, these trim pieces help you create smooth transitions between rooms, different surfaces, and stairways. They’re designed to match your floor in color and texture for a clean, consistent look throughout your space.
Transitions do more than just improve how your floor looks. They also help protect the edges of your flooring, cover expansion gaps, and allow for safe movement between flooring areas of different heights or types. Whether you’re working on a residential upgrade or a large commercial space, the right moldings make all the difference.
This collection includes a wide variety of transition types, each with its own purpose:
Baby Thresholds are used to bridge the gap between two different flooring surfaces, such as from vinyl plank to carpet or to a sliding door track. They provide a gentle slope and a clean edge.
Quarter Rounds are ideal for covering expansion gaps around the perimeter of your room, typically where the flooring meets the baseboard or cabinetry. They provide a neat, finished look and are commonly used in both residential and commercial installs.
Omni Trim is a versatile, multi-use trim piece that can serve as a threshold, end cap, or stair edge. It’s a great option when you need flexibility across different applications.
T-Moldings are made to connect two floors of equal height, such as between two rooms with the same flooring type. They are often used in open floor plans and doorways to allow for expansion and a smooth visual transition.
Stairnoses come in two styles: flush edge and overlap. Flush stairnoses create a level finish with glued-down floors, while overlap stairnoses are ideal for floating floor installations, allowing room for expansion while providing edge protection on steps.
Round Stair Treads cover the full depth of a stair step and are designed to match your flooring for a seamless appearance. These are often used in multi-family buildings, commercial environments, and anywhere a durable stair solution is needed.
Stair Risers complete your staircase by covering the vertical face of each step, typically paired with a stair tread or plank.
No matter which type of trim you need, Philadelphia transitions are made with quality materials and designed to last. Their color coordination with Shaw and Philadelphia flooring products ensures your space looks unified and professional from edge to edge.
