Hello hivemind! We replaced our back door to our kitchen, the problem is the sill was a little wider then the door that we got, the old owners had tile across the whole kitchen and pretty much tiled up to the old door, not we have about a 3 inch gap that needs filled. I have flashing tape underneath it already, but what transition piece would you all recommend for that? https://postimg.cc/R6t92Pyb Thanks a ton!
