vinyl transition to wood stairs

9 years ago

I'm putting in a sheet vinyl floor that will terminate at the top of basement stairs, which are painted wood. I need to have some sort of transition/termination strip to cover up the vinyl at the top step. What is this called? I'm not sure the term I should be googling for.

A Schluter strip should do it.

Isn't the Schluter stuff for tile? I've got vinyl.
