Hi shaz and welcome..


You could use a product like this....and then use carpet grips to hold the carpet in-situ..against the trim.

Uniform Bending Of Profiles With Radius Perforations

Certain Schlüter profiles with radius perforations are available for the protection of contoured edges. The perforations make it possible to adjust the profile to the contour of the covering edge. To achieve quick and neat bending of most profiles with radius perforations, use the specially designed Schlüter-RUMA bending machine. For full details of profiles with radius perforations, and which are suitable for use with Schlüter-RUMA, ring Schlüter-Systems Ltd on +44 (0) 1530 813396. The picture shows an example of how a Schlüter profile can be easily contoured to fit a neighbouring curved surface.
