As a leading manufacturer of carpet edging strips in China, we understand the importance of a well-installed carpet. Not only does it enhance the overall aesthetics of your space, but it also ensures the longevity of your carpet investment. One of the most crucial aspects of carpet installation is the edging, which prevents fraying, protects the carpet's edges, and adds a finished look to the room.

To assist our customers in achieving a professional-looking carpet finish, we have created a comprehensive video tutorial that guides you through the process of edging a carpet using our premium-quality carpet edging strips.

Materials You'll Need:
Carpet edging strips
Carpet tack strip
Carpet stretcher
Carpet knee kicker
Utility knife
Hammer

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Determine the Amount of Edging Strips Required

Measure the perimeter of the room where the carpet will be installed. Add an additional 10% for wastage and overlap. This will give you the total length of edging strips required.

2. Install the Carpet Tack Strip

Secure the carpet tack strip around the perimeter of the room, leaving a small gap between the wall and the tack strip. The tack strip should be flush with the subfloor.

3. Stretch the Carpet

Place the carpet in the room and use the carpet stretcher to stretch it tautly over the tack strip. Trim any excess carpet around the edges.

4. Cut the Edging Strips

Measure and cut the carpet edging strips to the length of each wall. Cut them at a 45-degree angle at the corners.

5. Install the Edging Strips

Place the edging strips over the tack strip and use the carpet knee kicker to press them into place. Ensure that the edging strips are flush with the carpet.

6. Trim the Excess Edging Strips

Use a utility knife to trim any excess edging strips that extend beyond the carpet.

7. Secure the Edging Strips

Use a hammer to drive nails through the nail holes provided on the edging strips into the subfloor. This will secure the edging strips in place.

Tips for Professional Results:
Use a high-quality carpet edging strip to ensure durability and a clean finish.
Stretch the carpet evenly to prevent wrinkles or buckling.
Trim the excess carpet accurately to avoid gaps or overlaps.
Use a sharp utility knife for clean cuts.
Drive the nails straight into the subfloor to secure the edging strips properly.

By following these steps and using our premium carpet edging strips, you can achieve a professional-looking carpet installation that will enhance the beauty and longevity of your flooring.
