PCT No. PCT/GB91/02044 Sec. 371 Date May 26, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date May 26, 1993 PCT Filed Nov. 19, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/09769 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 11, 1992.The invention relates to edging strips for fixing floorcoverings, which are particularly suitable for use as dividers between adjacent floor areas. The edging strip comprises interfitting housing and insert strips, the housing strip fitting within the floor surface and presenting an upper edge portion flush with the surface of the floorcovering and the insert strip providing a recessed upper surface to which the underside of the floorcovering edge is fixed, co-operating interlocking projections and recesses being provided whereby the insert strip fixedly locates on the housing strip by pressing down along the length of the insert strip. The insert strip has a locking projection along one edge for engaging in a co-operating recess in the housing strip and a resilient tongue along its other edge projecting downwardly for engaging in a further co-operating recess in the housing strip. The tongue has a locking projection for catching behind a co-operating locking projection in said further recess. The invention provides an edging strip which, when used as a divider, provides a smooth transition between divided floor areas and prevents damage to the floorcovering edges.
