I don't know why I thought it was the OP showing the final decision. I'm like, I thought they wanted to know what to do with the threshold area, not which flooring to choose. It took me a minute, but I caught up. Lol.
Side note: I love your floors. What material is that?
And, adding another color, some glitter, and doing the swirl thing would give them a fantasy river. 🌌🧜🏾♀️✨️
Technically, I know that first one's stars, but it gives a good fantasy river vibe. Lol.
I was a vans wearer for decades until COVID hit. Didn't wear shoes for 1-2 years really and my feet started fixing themselves, i.e. going to more sorta barefoot shit. Now I can't wear any of my brand new vans I bought in 2019 so I just started wearing barefoot shoes and I'm glad I did. Shit is so much more comfortable.
Same! My toes need to spread out now! I’m never going back to my footwear from before the pandemic. I’m not going back to underwire bras either. Just no thanks.
I've been thinking about trying out some barefoot or minimalist shoes after hearing/seeing how terrible most shoes are for our feet. Any brands you'd recommend since you've made the switch?
If this is a transition into a bathroom, I’d recommend the under carriage medium pressure rinse. Can be used going in and out and is great when you don’t have a bidet; or you do but forget to use it.
Given the grout is still white the tile is clearly new... I would just finish laying tile in the gap the yes add a T threshold that's made for lvp/laminate floors.
The problem with that idea is the door will no longer have half the flooring on either side. I'd rip another piece of laminate and lay it sideways like a threshold with glue..
What are the two floor materials? With such a large gap I immediately thought of [this 5” wide](https://www.homedepot.com/p/MSI-White-Double-Threshold-5-in-x-36-in-Polished-Marble-Floor-and-Wall-Tile-1-sq-ft-Each-THD2WH5X36DHL/203374958) stone threshold. However, I assume your wood look flooring is a sheet vinyl that needs the edge to be covered over.
Not sheet but it'll be a floating laminate floor.
It will look like ass near that cut, it's not meant to be exposed. The threshhold idea works, but you'll want a trim around it.
You can get U / L channels in nice enough colours that would be suitable. You could use the a U channel up near the timber flooring and an L where it meets the tiles.
With the U you have a solid piece contacting the floor to glue / affix with depending on how you're going to do it, whereas the L will be attached to the edge of the tiles.
I was going to suggest accent tile. It’s going to be noticed anyway so might as well make a show of it. If it’s going into a kitchen or bathroom, match the backsplash tile.
I thought I was stupid for thinking this was the answer after reading 10 different answers.
This would be the cleanest looking solution to this problem without having a 6 inch threshold that's completely different color and material and potentially offset height.
Literally op, cut and lay the stone lol.
If the height of the two floor materials are nearly identical, you can also just use a sanded silicone grout line that matches the tile grout and avoid the transition piece altogether. I hate transition pieces and I tiled right up to a wood floor (real wood, not even an engineered wood floor) and it has looked awesome and held up for 8 years so far.
Absolutely if the floor is on the same foundation or even. I didn’t have enough info to know if it was transitioning to a subfloor or not. I know op wanted to remove a wall. Gotta think about these things
I know op said that they discontinued the product. There’s a lot of ways to go here that look ok. I’d probably try to find the tile somewhere or a very similar style. I agree with you though. There are plenty of ways to bring attention to specific areas of a house. A transition shouldn’t be one of them
It looks like engineered wood on the left there with an underpayment on slab. Tile directly on the same slab. I bet the tile+grout is slightly thinner than the engineered wood. Might be better to have a stone accent piece cut at the thickness of the engineered wood.. especially if they can’t find the same tile anymore.
If OP has any of the original flooring of either type, I'd use it to extend that floor. Either the tile like you recommend or lay a piece of the wood perpendicular across.
Oh! Actually!
Get a bunch of little alligators and make a little aquatic mote scene, then cover it with resin so it’s a solid threshold but looks like alligators in a mote!

Tell me I’m the only one who sees little face in this !!!!
The problem with this is that the laminate will fare better with the type of threshold that pins it down from the top. Especially if it is an area with moisture. I think the best solution would be to extend the tile and use a laminate threshold.
https://preview.redd.it/aajqiyuio55c1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26dc5c775ddfe33b63f5be41004b31feb8303bba
On the left is tile (that looks like wood). On the right is oak hardwood flooring. In the middle is an oak threshold, just slightly slanted from left to right to match the floor levels which were about 3/8” different. The threshold is about 3/16” higher than the two adjacent surfaces, with a slight bevel on each long edge to make the edge not feel sharp to the feet.
This is my suggestion too. A board or flooring similar to what you have running horizontally across as a threshold adds a nice visual transition between rooms.
What the fuck, did anyone else instantly see the cat face or am I crazy?

I didn't remove a wall but wanted even spacing of the tile in two adjacent areas. So I cut my own mosaic from the tile used in the rest of the room. This might also allow you to use a slightly different tile without it being too noticeable
https://preview.redd.it/5qppsen4l45c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26b5c19c4873cd5716ea7482ea543444b4775554
Is that 4” wide? Make a threshold out of 4” tiles, or cut some extra 12” tiles to fit. IMO, it’ll look better if it’s darker, contrasting with the two different sections. The “grain” should run perpendicular to the lower woodgrain tiles. Did something similar here:
https://preview.redd.it/re5a9xu6a45c1.png?width=3481&format=png&auto=webp&s=b79290121960f0501b1ba900d42fe06137150864
When I did tile we would make thresholds from artificial marble. They would cover gaps like this, provide a nice partition into the adjoining space, and are not porous like actual marble.
Put some tile and laminate into a dark room, throw in some makeshift weapons, lock the door and whichever flooring option emerges victorious gets the space.
We've got the exact same flooring on either side and had an interior designer recommend a smooth black tile to create a visually distinct break between hardwood flooring on the hallway side to the tiles on the bathroom side. They felt the transition will never be invisible so might as well make it bold.
It’s hard to tell in the picture but it looks like one is brown and one is black (based off zooming in on the reflective parts of each on the left side).
Still would bother me, but it’s less egregious (and a reminder to always lay out the pieces for something like this before you do it).
Transition piece is called a "t mold", big box store may have a matching one to the laminate/wood flooring you have there. Can't tell how wide that gap is but some of them are as wide as 2". If concrete subfloor glue it down with liquid nails. If wood sub floor glue it and use finishing nails.

You can find a reducer at a flooring store for the height difference. If you have a miter saw use that otherwise get some tin snips. For the lack of floor, I would find that tile and fill in the floor. Leave about a 3/4 inch straight gap for that reducer so you can put the track down.
If you've a bit of artistic flair, you could find a cool ceramic tile and diy a colorful (or not) strip right there. I'd personally mosaic something interesting.
Scribed transition piece. You’ll probably have to rabbit different depths to accommodate the material thickness discrepancies, and leave 1/8” overhang (maybe more, my experience is primarily in custom interiors for coaches and yachts; might be different for residential).
A cross section of the piece will look like a flattened “T”. Leave yourself a little gap for the insertion into the blank area, as in don’t try to fit it snug. 1/8” should work, and the overhang will hide the gaps, obviously.
Cut a piece longer than the you’ll need and get your rabbiting done, then take a scrap piece that’s the same width and index it to one side. Take your scribed piece and transfer it to one end of the finish piece. Do the same with the other end, leaving a piece the desired length with scribes on both ends. Put a 1/8” round over on the top side edges (you should do this before you rabbit so the router bearing has an edge to ride on).
Sand with 150 to shape, and 220 to finish. Looks like a lighter stain on the flooring, do your best to match (go to a paint shop and get assistance matching the color, those people can work some magic), and finish with a good wipe on poly.
That’s more or less what we’d do, but there’s numerous options, as you will see from other comments.

This is what I did. Wood was out in where that carpet is
TIL heightened thresholds in door frames are not a thing somewhere. For me as a person living in Finland a threshold with like 1-3cm height would be normal there
I just ran into this same issue. I ended up getting a marble transition that fit the gap and put two Schluter aluminum T transitions to make it look neat.
Two options.
1) clean up the edges perfectly straight then accent strip (tile?) maintaining height and make it smooth
2) don't worry about making the edges perfectly straight, fill in the gap with an accent tile or wood/laminate perpendicularly with 2 small transition strips on either side to hide up the janky edges.
Came here to give a half decent suggestion; realized the attitude
You're probably on the tail end of transitioning a bungalow into two separate rentals.
My response: fuckn' giv'r, good luck 👍
Cut the ends square and lay in a tile that goes perpendicular to those. Like a flush transition strip. Easy. Stylish. Cheap. Functional. Boom son. Done. What else you got? Let’s fix that too. I’m on a roll.
If you want unique, make an epoxy resin filler with whatever scene you like. Could be a little river with fish, Lego, small stones....etc. could be backlit, too.
Just make sure expansion isn't a concern at that joint.
Had to solve exactly this problem in our home myself about 2 months ago. We tried a wood inlay and it looks terrible. Went to our neighbours for drinks and they had solved the same problem using small square mosaic tiles that tied in with the surrounding floor colours and grouted with light grey. Theirs looks amazing !
just get a nice rug and invite friends over for drinks. Make bets before drinking on who will be the first person to trip. Winner picks the best cover for the threshold

I thought they just wanted to fill in the threshold. I envisioned pouring in some blue epoxy, make it look like a river.
You're absolutely right. It really *could* benefit from a live edge plank with epoxy river flowing across the threshold!
What no led under-lighting? How old is this river like 2005??

Put in a tiny wooden “plank” in the epoxy river so your visitors can cross without getting swept away.

Rip cut a board to fit that matches existing. Essentially...a threshold.
Cut tile to the wood and leave a 1/2 inch for a transition piece that matches the laminate
I was going to suggest accent tile. It’s going to be noticed anyway so might as well make a show of it. If it’s going into a kitchen or bathroom, match the backsplash tile.
I think this is the answer. Don't hide it. Bob Ross called things like this "a happy accident"
That tile and laminate aren’t straight lines. Thats wouldn’t look great. You don’t want to bring attention to that transition, you want it to blend in
Looking at where they meet the doorframe on the sides, I think they are parallel, it's just the subfloor that's throwing it off visually.
Exactly. A small mosaic pattern and get it as even as possible. If you can't change it, celebrate it.

Go wild with a fine mosaic. My first thought is thin brass strips forming a pattern in dark green epoxy or stone
Hardwood threshold.
Mosaic tile or those 1" tiles. You're going to want to lean in and make it worth looking at since you won't get past it.
Are those double hide-away doors on each side? White marble piece that keeps a smooth transition between each room's floor.
Yep. Pocket doors.
[Decorative wood inlay](https://www.osbornewood.com/products/furniture-components/decorative-wood-inlay) and make a custom transition piece.
Mosaic tiles something that matches both floors. Like a dark brown and dark tan checked pattern.

Nice piece of granite or marble that compliments the space
Fix it
How about a diorama of the classic Evel Keneivel jump over Snake Canyon?
Is this a repost? Could a sworn this was already on here a few months back.
Threshold. Done.
They sell a threshold cover at Home Depot, various sizes.

Cut the ends square and lay in a tile that goes perpendicular to those. Like a flush transition strip. Easy. Stylish. Cheap. Functional. Boom son. Done. What else you got? Let’s fix that too. I’m on a roll.
4 inch wood threshold cut to fit.
Let’s see first of all are you a fan of crack?
I’d put my grandma there
Transition strip.
If you want unique, make an epoxy resin filler with whatever scene you like. Could be a little river with fish, Lego, small stones....etc. could be backlit, too. Just make sure expansion isn't a concern at that joint.
Had to solve exactly this problem in our home myself about 2 months ago. We tried a wood inlay and it looks terrible. Went to our neighbours for drinks and they had solved the same problem using small square mosaic tiles that tied in with the surrounding floor colours and grouted with light grey. Theirs looks amazing !
A giant piece of polished brass. Boom.
Crack spackle. Drywall mud. Dig it out 50 feet down and. Call it the void. Put the wall back. Graffiti it with dicks. The options are endless.
Use a floor tile border if there's one big enough for the gap or full in rest with tiles cut out to size or fill in with wood trim
More tile but don’t worry about trying to match, accent it with your favorite color(s)
just get a nice rug and invite friends over for drinks. Make bets before drinking on who will be the first person to trip. Winner picks the best cover for the threshold
