Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Chrome Match" — The Bright Silver finish of the SLT227 is specifically designed to coordinate with polished chrome bathroom fixtures, such as taps, shower heads, and towel rails. Expert Tip: To achieve a flawless finish on external corners, always use a fine-toothed hacksaw and a mitre box. When installing, ensure the perforated anchoring leg is fully embedded in the tile adhesive before the tile is pressed into place to ensure a rock-solid, permanent bond.

Pocket sized metal mitre box ideal for use when cutting tile trims and bath trims to a 45 degree angle.

A ready to use acid based cleaner suitable for use very soon after grouting with cementitious grout.

The ultimate versatile transition for modern flooring. The Tile Rite DSB249 is a high-performance doorway strip designed to create a seamless bridge between different flooring types. Whether you are joining tiles to tiles, hardwood, laminate, or carpet, this multi-purpose profile provides a professional, clean finish while protecting the exposed edges of your floor coverings.

Finished in a luxurious Black Nickel, this strip is the perfect match for contemporary dark hardware and sleek interior designs. The smart "clip" system allows for variable height adjustment up to 15mm, making it an ideal solution for bridging floors of slightly different levels. It also accommodates the necessary expansion gaps required for wood and laminate flooring, ensuring your floor remains stable and looks its best.

Key Features:

• Premium Black Nickel Finish: A deep, smoky metallic finish that adds a touch of modern luxury to doorways and transitions.

• Variable Height Adjustment: Clever design handles floor level differences of up to 15mm using the included small and standard clips.

• Multi-Surface Compatibility: Suitable for joining tile, stone, wood, laminate, and carpet.

• Complete Kit: Includes the base plate, decorative aluminium top, and two sizes of clips for a hassle-free installation.

• Built-in Expansion: Specifically designed to allow for the natural movement/expansion of timber and laminate floors.

Technical Specifications:

• Height Adjustment: Up to 15mm

• Finish: Black Nickel

• Installation: Secret fix (screws or adhesive under the base plate)

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Level Master" — Transitioning from a thick porcelain tile to a thinner LVT or carpet can often leave a trip hazard. The DSB249 is our "problem solver" for this exact scenario. Because the top plate 'clips' down into the base, you can angle it slightly to accommodate height differences. Expert Tip: For a secure fit, ensure you fix the base plate to the subfloor before the floor coverings are laid. Once the flooring is in place, simply snap the black nickel top into the base for a clean, screw-less appearance.

Clean lines and reliable protection for slim-profile tiling. The Tile Rite FTE472 is an essential L-shape PVC trim designed to provide a neat, professional finish to external wall corners and tiled edges. At an 8mm depth, it is the perfect solution for finishing standard ceramic wall tiles, window reveals, and splashbacks where a discreet, straight-edge aesthetic is desired.

Manufactured in the UK from high-grade, lead-free PVC, this trim is calcium-zinc stabilized to ensure maximum durability and resistance to UV yellowing. Its moisture-resistant properties make it an ideal choice for bathrooms and kitchens, providing a hygienic and easy-to-clean transition between tiled surfaces and adjacent walls.

Key Features:

• Slim Straight-Edge Profile: Delivers a minimalist, modern finish that sits flush with thinner tile ranges.

• Impact Protection: Guards unglazed tile edges against chips and cracks in busy household areas.

• Durable Lead-Free PVC: Calcium-zinc stabilized for enhanced strength and long-term colour stability.

• Moisture & Chemical Resistant: Built to withstand the humid conditions and cleaning routines of kitchens and bathrooms.

• Effortless Installation: Lightweight and easy to cut to size using a hacksaw or PVC mitre shears.

Technical Specifications:

• Material: Extrusion Grade PVC (Calcium-Zinc Stabilized)

• Profile: L-Shape (Straight Edge)

• Depth: 8.7mm

• Length: 2.44m

• Colour: White

• Compatibility: Ideal for tiles up to 7mm thick (allowing for a 1-2mm adhesive bed).

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Seamless Window Finish" — When tiling window reveals with white ceramic tiles, using a matching White PVC trim like the FTE472 is often superior to metal. Because the white pigment is consistent throughout the plastic, any mitre cuts at the corners remain virtually invisible. Expert Tip: For a perfectly flat finish, ensure you apply enough adhesive to the wall first, then press the perforated leg of the trim into the bed before applying the tiles. This "locks" the trim in place and prevents any unsightly "lippage" at the edge.

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Monochrome Masterstroke" — If you are using Matt Black bathroom brassware, this Brushed Black trim is a non-negotiable for tying the room together. Standard chrome trims can look dated next to black taps, but this trim makes the tiling look like part of a cohesive design. Expert Tip: When cutting this trim, use a fine-toothed hacksaw or a dedicated metal blade and always cut from the finished side to the back to prevent any burring on the visible brushed edge.

The architectural, budget-friendly finish for modern tiles. The Tile Rite FTE893 L-Shape PVC trim is the perfect solution for finishing external wall corners and exposed tile edges. Finished in a sophisticated Slate Grey, this trim is designed to blend seamlessly with anthracite, concrete-effect, or dark stone tiles, providing a crisp, straight-edge look that mirrors expensive metal profiles at a fraction of the cost.

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Shadow Line Effect" — Slate Grey is one of the most versatile trim colours because it creates a subtle "shadow line" that defines the edge of the tiling without the harsh contrast of bright silver or white. Expert Tip: If you are using grey grout, this trim will almost completely disappear into the design, creating a very high-end, monolithic look. When cutting, use a fine-toothed mitre box or PVC trim cutters to ensure the grey finish stays clean and free of burrs.

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

"The Seamless Transition" — When using the TLS116 for floor transitions, ensure the "L" is tucked tightly against the adjacent flooring. The 12mm depth is particularly useful for modern large-format porcelain tiles which often require a slightly thicker adhesive bed. Expert Tip: To keep the bright silver finish looking its best, avoid using highly acidic cleaners during the grouting process, as these can dull the anodised seal. A simple damp cloth is all you need to keep it sparkling.
