    In-floor Scissor Lift Install

    DUDE! I don't want to sound like a Perv... But, THAT'S a nice hole you got there. Why is there a seam at the outside edge of the old, where it meets the new? Almost looks like you could lift the whole box outta there - but that ain't gonna happen - EVER!

    In-floor Scissor Lift Install

    New Floor (VCT)

    Thanx for the reply - I'll look into the trim peice - I have 2 -16' wide doors and without some way to finish that 1/8" edge it'll get all Booged up in no time. I REALLY like to look of this stuff. Hopefully, any weld splatter or plasma cutter drippings end up on a black square coz I don't...
