### The Finishing Touch Your New Floor Needs
New flooring looks brilliant until you get to the doorways and see **ragged edges and expansion gaps** staring back at you. Door trims sort that out - they bridge the gap between floor and doorframe, protect the edges, and make the whole job look finished.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Order door trims when you buy your flooring. Most manufacturers include matching profiles, and you'll kick yourself if you have to hunt for the right colour later.

Frequently Asked Questions about Door Trim Fitting in Exmouth
Do I need door trims with new flooring?
Yeah, you do. Door trims cover the expansion gap between your new floor and the doorframe. Without them, you've got an ugly gap showing, and the floor edge can get damaged. They finish the job properly.
Can you match the trim to my flooring colour?
Usually, yes. Most laminate and LVT brands include matching door trims. If you're using your own flooring, check what trims are available. I can also fit generic trims in oak, walnut, or white if needed.
Will you need to trim the door?
Sometimes. If your new floor is thicker than the old one, the door might catch. I'll check clearance and can trim doors if needed - that's a separate job though, so I'll let you know beforehand.
How do you fix them down?
Depends on the trim type. T-section trims slot into a track that's glued down. Ramp trims and Scotia beading get pinned or glued. I'll use whichever method suits your flooring and subfloor best.
