what is this strip/runner called?

[T]

Hi All,

Between my carpet and my kitchen vinyl flooring, there is a aluminum runner about 3/4" wide that is nailed to the floor as a transition between the carpet and the vinyl floor.

What is this critter called?

Many thanks,

That looks like it!

It is actually called - get this - a "transition"

Note it is called a "transition strip"

Now that I know the name, I know what to look for.

Thank you!
