Edge protection that provides a smooth sloped transition from one elevation to another, eliminating trip hazards. While being aesthetically pleasing, these profiles are designed for heavy commercial applications particularly where wheeled carts are used.

RAMP PROFILE GUIDE
A ramp profile — in the US more often called a floor reducer, reducer strip or reducer molding — bridges a height difference between two floor coverings with a slope instead of a step. That takes the trip hazard out of the transition and lets wheeled traffic roll across it. Two questions decide which Küberit KR profile fits: what you are installing, and whether the floor is already down.
Pre-fit profiles are set while the floor is being laid, so the profile sits flush and the fixing stays out of sight. Retrofit profiles are made for floors that are already finished and are fitted over the existing transition. Küberit KR-A, KR-F, KR-G, KR-H, KR-I and KR-J are pre-fit; KR-B, KR-C, KR-D and KR-E are retrofit.

Küberit KR reducer strips cover height differences from 1/8" (3 mm) up to 7/8" (22 mm). For resilient floors, KR-A, KR-B, KR-C and KR-J come in profile heights from 1/8" to 5/16" (3–8 mm), and the self-adhesive KR-D adapts to flooring from 1/16" to 11/16" (2–18 mm). The tile reducers KR-G, KR-H and KR-I come in heights from 5/16" to 1/2" (8–12.5 mm); KR-H steps tile down to carpet or resilient flooring, so it also works as a carpet reducer strip. KR-E (retrofit, also for tile) and KR-F (pre-fit) are heavy-duty transition ramps for wood and laminate up to 9/16" (15 mm) and 7/8" (22 mm), KR-F with ready-made 90° exterior corners. KR-A, KR-B, KR-G, KR-H, KR-I and KR-J are ADA compliant, as are KR-F-090, KR-F-100 and KR-E with 5/16" (8.5 mm) flooring. Each product data sheet lists the exact heights per profile.
Küberit floor reducers are designed for heavy commercial applications, particularly where wheeled carts are in use — retail floors, healthcare corridors, warehouses and back-of-house areas. Every KR profile is made of aluminum, anodized in silver and, depending on the profile, sand, bronze or black, or in natural aluminum; KR-H is also available in polished stainless steel. Custom lengths, colors and finishes, including powder coating in almost any RAL color, are available on request with minimum quantities. The standard length is 2.50 meters (approximately 8' 2-1/2").
