Handmade Hardwood Thresholds for Carpet & Vinyl Flooring
Established in 2021, Cotswold Thresholds specialises in crafting high-quality solid hardwood door bars designed for seamless transitions between carpet and vinyl flooring. Our products are meticulously handmade in the Cotswolds using sustainably sourced FSC-certified hardwoods, including oak, mahogany, and beech. Each threshold undergoes a precise finishing process involving two coats of non-toxic, water- and heat-resistant oil, commonly used in children's wooden toys, ensuring both safety and durability. Our thresholds feature pre-drilled metal fixing brackets for secure installation, with recessed designs to conceal fixings beneath floor coverings. We prioritise natural aesthetics, embracing the unique grain and colour variations inherent in wood to create distinctive, long-lasting solutions.Our commitment to sustainability extends to offering re-finishable products that maintain their 'as-new' condition over time. With a focus on practicality, our thresholds accommodate varying floor heights and can be adapted using simple adhesive or screw-fix methods. Our team combines traditional craftsmanship with modern functionality to address diverse flooring challenges, from residential bathrooms to commercial spaces. Customer satisfaction is guaranteed through our dedication to quality materials, precise engineering, and environmentally responsible practices. We operate from Unit 6, Priory Industrial Estate, Tetbury, serving clients seeking elegant, durable flooring solutions.

Hardwood Thresholds
Our hardwood thresholds provide seamless transitions between different flooring types. Crafted from FSC-certified oak, mahogany, or beech, these durable thresholds resist wear while maintaining natural aesthetics. The 14mm height accommodates most floor coverings, with options for 32mm or 45mm widths in 1m or 2m lengths.
Carpet Transitions
Specialist thresholds designed for carpet-to-vinyl transitions. The double ramp design ensures smooth passage for wheeled items, while single ramps accommodate height differences. Pre-drilled brackets allow secure installation without visible fixings, preserving interior decor.
Non-Toxic Finishes
All products receive two coats of non-toxic, water-resistant oil finish. This child-safe treatment enhances wood grain while providing heat resistance. The breathable finish allows thresholds to be re-finished multiple times, extending product lifespan and maintaining appearance.
Commercial Thresholds
Durable solutions for high-traffic commercial environments. The 16-year performance record demonstrates exceptional longevity in shop offices and public spaces. Available in multiple configurations to suit various doorway dimensions and flooring combinations.
Adjustable Height Thresholds
Thresholds designed to accommodate varying floor heights. Users may add plywood strips beneath units to raise height where thick underlay creates discrepancies. The 14mm standard height balances practicality with subtle transition requirements across different installations.
