The kitchen opens onto the living room with the transition being about 12 feet long and there is also a doorway into the dining room that i have to transition. Tile is 1 2 higher than the wood floor.

We are installing engineered hardwood floors against porcelain tile floors. The engineered hardwood with the underlayment which is being installed on our concrete subfloor will be 3 8 or 9 525 mm higher than the existing tile floor. I would try and create a transition that would overlay the tile flooring. A single transition strip that acts as a ramp from the lower hardwood floor to the higher tile floor.

The tapered edges should be no thiner than 1 8 thick to avoid splintering. This strip can either meet the tile floor directly or can have a lip over style. Homeowners looking to refurbish a property in a humid climate for example.
