Floor separation at passage in the wrong place

Following situation:

Tiles were laid in the hallway.

The edge seemed quite far into the room to me. Therefore, I wrote an email to the tiler and the interior door installer asking if the tiles later protrude under the door into the room and if so, who has to fix it or if everything is fine. The interior door installer replied that everything is fine.

I installed the floor myself and oriented myself on the tile edge. That means I had to leave space for the rail for the transition profile (transition tiles -> vinyl approx. 1 cm).

After the tiles and vinyl were laid, the interior doors were installed.

This is the result.



I would be grateful for ideas on how to fix the whole thing without having to relay the vinyl.

Hello greeting- nameless "new user". The described situation is unpleasant! Certainly, there should have been a consultation with you before the tile installation about how and with what disadvantages the last row of tiles under the door would be laid. The glass door is also quite narrow in material, meaning it does not conceal to the same extent as a wider wooden or wood-based door. I personally do not primarily see the tiler as responsible here, but first and foremost the consulting door manufacturer. Regardless of which covering would have been applied: the last strip of covering projects about 2cm into the adjoining room. This could possibly have been mitigated in advance by changing the door hinging. With the (understandable) disadvantage that the glass door would then swing into the other room. The whole thing would have been completely resolved with a glass sliding door (as far as possible on site). But now the question arises as to what should be done given the initial situation. One possibility would be to have the tile strip properly prepared by a professional painter and then painted and sealed with a color coating matched to the adjacent wood decor. -------------------------- Regards: KlaRa

This is what came out.

And what exactly would you have expected instead?

And what exactly would you have expected instead?

That the transition is between the frames and not outside.

That the darker coating shows through better under the transparent door is the better choice. When the covering rail is on, it only looks like a shadow. You can see that up close with a flaw detector view, but otherwise it's fine. At the end of the door rebate it would be rather wrong for the transparent door, because then the transition would be under the door (okay for a wooden door, less good for a glass door due to the "light-conducting" effect). And when the door is open, even what seems "more correct" to you when closed looks "wrong". In the triangle dark-light-glass edge there is not a single optimum, but several optima – the one for "open" is exactly the opposite. What color should the rail be?

Seriously, it looks more than lousy, no matter how much you try to sugarcoat it.
