Tile to hardwood transition height difference.
The answer to height differences is to use a floor transition strip that ramps up or down from tile flooring to wood flooring.
Transition strips create a bridge to fill the uneven gap.
For most of these transitions balancing out flooring heights is a primary concern.
The simplest way to link floor tile and hardwood of different heights is with a transition strip.
Most transition strips meant for different height materials look like they are meant for a greater height difference.
This hardwood transition strip is shaped to make smooth transition from a lower vinyl floor upward to a thicker ceramic or stone tile floor.
Transitions between different flooring types require more precise strips tailored to the specific floor materials.
Carpet to hardwood or tile floor transition tips.
Carpet transitions to thick flooring like hardwood or tile present a significant height difference.

Much like the tile to laminate strip this one reduces from a higher tile floor covering to a lower vinyl floor.
When two of them meet at a doorway the abrupt edge is obvious.
We will install new luxury vinyl tile and expect to have a height difference of a mere 2 mm between the existing hardwood and new tile.
The ideal transition is same height or for each material to sit flush adjacent to one another.
It might be slight or enough to stub your toe.
