Bathroom nearly finished

After splitting up with my missus my heart hasn't been on working that much but this bathroom was pre-booked and it has helped me take my mind off things.

Never really took any before photos but it was a maroon suite with a block wall separating the toilet and bathroom. We removed airing cupboard/hot water tank and while my Corgi mate installed a combi boiler in the loft I knocked down the wall.
I then ripped the old suite out and drylined the walls to be tiled. Builders came in to put new stud wall and door in then a spreader did a couple of walls which aren't to be tiled.
I came back to overlay with 18mm ply and do 1st fix for bath, toilet, towel rad and shower.

60 x 40 porcs on the 1/2 bond (surprise surprise - that's all I seem to do!)

After I'd done the walls the customers decided they want the hall and kitchen floor doing in the same smaller floor tile. Had to set out bathroom to work with hall and kitchen. Will be overlaying these 2 rooms with NMP but am still going to have a hell of a step.
Where's the best place to get a ramped wooden threshold?

Not sure, I never asked, but I have come across quite a few customers who hate the idea of floor and all walls tiled as they say it would feel claustrophobic and 'institutionalized'.
I'm not sure what I prefer myself - depends on the room and tile I guess.
