    A bit 'different' door trim

    Anybody like these made for carpet to vinyl really but as they have screws every 6" under the inset, it made a neat 'ramp up' from carpet to tile (about 15m) Won't suit every taste but went better with Trav to light brown carpet better than brass or aluminium.

    No screw door stop on tiles with UFH

    I need to fit a door stop on floor tiles with UFH. A couple of months ago I found a web site advertising a range of stops designed to be fixed without screws. Unfortunately I'm now unable to find the site. Can anyone point me in the right direction or recommend a no-screw door stop.
