Mohawk Laminate Trims & Moldings
InstaForm moldings featuring Incizo technology
Finish your new Mohawk Laminate Floor with a complete line of moldings featuring
quarterround, stair nosing and InstaForm moldings featuring Incizo technology. This
revolutionary 4-in-1 profile makes it easy for customers to finish their Mohawk
Laminate Floor. Use the special knife included in each package to quickly cut away
what is not needed to turn your InstaForm piece into a square nose carpet reducer,
hard surface reducer, or t-molding. Fewer moldings to inventory and on-site selection
makes InstaForm moldings the preferred choice for flooring professionals.
Reducer Strip is used to
create a smooth transition between two floors of different heights, as well as protect
the planks exposed edge from damage caused by foot traffic.
T-Molding is used to bridge
two areas of flooring that are the exact same height. The T-Molding overlaps the
exposed edges of the floor and is secured only to the sub floor, never to the flooring
itself. Generally this trim is used as the transition piece between rooms, or as
the expansion piece for areas that exceed 30 feet in length.
Universal Edge is also called
a Square Nosing and is used where the laminate flooring butts up
to carpeting, or various vertical surfaces where the edge will be exposed, such
as along a fireplace.
Mohawk Mono-Trak™
is used with some of the wood trim moldings to alleviate the need to nail the moldings
directly to the subfloor. Mohawk's Mono-Trak™ system makes installing the
trim easy and will help ensure the proper expansion gaps are always maintained between
the end of the floor planks and the trim pieces. Used with InstaForm profiles only.
These additional moldings are also available.
Overlapping Stair Nosing
is similar to a flush stair nosing except the nosing overlaps the exposed edge of
the floor. The overlapping stair nosing is secured to the sub floor and not to the
laminate floor so the floor is free to move. Never butt the nosing tightly to the
laminate flooring.
Quarter Round gives the
floor a finished look and protects the edges of the laminate flooring. Never secure
the quarter round to the laminate flooring. Instead, the quarter round should always
be attached to the vertical wall.
Bullnose An alternative to quarter round are Bullnose moldings,
which finish a tile floor by the wall much like a ceramic or stone floor would.
Also available in select wood finishes, a bull nose is a much more grand way frame
the floor, much like a base board would. Bullnose moldings should be attached tot
he wall, not the floor, to provide adequate expansion space.
