Throughout our 30 years in the business, we've seen time and time again that transition strips are an essential piece of any flooring installation, used when two different flooring pieces need to be joined together.

They serve two main functions:

  • Transition strips offer an added safety feature, preventing people from tripping over an exposed edge.
  • Transition strips add a visually pleasing design element to the space. 

So, what is the best way to install transition strips? You have several options, but we recommend using a transition strip adhesive tape, like the Opti-Grip dry adhesive. Opti-Grip is a fast-acting double-sided tape that doesn't require a lengthy curing time like a wet adhesive does. 

Opti-Grip's simple installation and quick turnaround time allow you to complete your projects faster than ever.
