One function of the threshold stone is to divide the area visually, and at the same time, we should pay attention to the fact that the water from the balcony does not flow to the living room. If the height difference between the threshold stone and the floor is too large, the buckle will be uneven. As long as the threshold stone is higher than the inside, it can stop water and prevent overflow. However, threshold stones usually cost extra.
I hope my answer is helpful to you.
