Our Easy Fit Flooring Installation Kit is simple to use and really makes installtion a doddle, Your plastic tapping block is used to protect the edge of the flooring when you are tapping the boards securely into place. Similarly your metal pull bar is used on the end of your rows or tight spaces where you need to pull the board into place. Possibly the most understated part of the kit, the expansion spacers. These ensure that your expansion gap is consistent and is maintained whilst installing your floor. These should be placed around the floor during installation in order to hold the floor into place, as you continue to install your floor. If you do not maintain the expansion gap this can cause problems later in the intallation.

Kit just survived the installation process.\nPlastic tapping block was disintegrating by end of installation. Floor boards need a bit more than a "tap" to secure board ends.\nSimilarly the pull bar was beginning to bend by the end for similar reasons.
