Benefits of Entrance Mats

Entrance mats offer a wide range of benefits, making them an indispensable part of any building's entrance. Firstly, they act as the first line of defence against dirt, moisture, and debris, preventing them from being tracked inside and damaging the floors. This not only saves time and money on cleaning and maintenance but also helps to preserve the lifespan of the flooring.

Furthermore, entrance mats greatly enhance safety by reducing the risk of slip-and-fall accidents. Mats with anti-slip properties provide traction, even in wet or slippery conditions, ensuring that visitors can enter and exit the building with confidence.

In addition to practical benefits, entrance mats also contribute to the aesthetics of a space. They can be customized to complement the overall design theme, adding a touch of elegance or branding to the entrance area. Moreover, mats can create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, leaving a positive first impression on guests and setting the tone for the rest of their experience.

Why Use Entrance Mats?

If your building is subject to heavy footfall and floor damage, entrance mats are the perfect solution to keep your staff and visitors safe, and to protect your floors throughout the building. They are designed to collect excess dirt and moisture from the soles of shoes before it is treaded in, keeping your interiors clean and dry. Entrance mats perform to a very high standard, providing a safe walking surface that helps to prevent mishaps and injuries from occurring in the workplace. Particularly on rainy days, these mats are very beneficial, absorbing surplus water trailed in by visitors coming in and out of your building. Our heavy-duty mats are manufactured to perform to an extremely high standard and can withstand vigorous usage. The removal of excess dirt and grit also makes your premises hygienic and organised, overall increasing the longevity of your flooring and providing a long-lasting good first impression on visitors.

Our entrance mats create a great first impression on guests, creating a space that looks neat, organised, and appealing. We stock a wide range of high-quality mats, that can help transform the look of your office, business, or home. If you work in a public building, perhaps in a reception area or office environment, it is important for your premises to look professional, which can be achieved with entrance matting. They are a cost-effective and efficient way of styling up an area, and ultimately great value for money!

Types of Entrance Mats

Entrance mats come in various types, each designed to meet specific needs and requirements.

Scraper Mats: These mats are designed to remove heavy dirt and debris from shoes. They typically feature abrasive surfaces and robust bristles, allowing visitors to scrape off dirt and grime before entering the building.

Wiper Mats: Wiper mats are engineered to absorb moisture and dry shoes. Constructed with absorbent materials such as nylon or microfiber, these mats effectively trap water and prevent it from being tracked inside.

Combination Mats: As the name suggests, combination mats combine the features of both scraper and wiper mats. They offer a comprehensive solution by removing dirt and moisture simultaneously, ensuring maximum cleanliness.

Logo Mats: Logo mats offer a unique opportunity to showcase branding and create a memorable first impression. These mats can be custom-made with logos, slogans, or personalized designs, serving as a marketing tool while fulfilling their functional role.

Modular Mats: Modular mats consist of interlocking tiles or sections, allowing for easy customisation and flexibility. They can be configured to fit any entrance size or shape, making them ideal for large commercial spaces or irregularly shaped entrances.

High-quality Entrance Matting

We stock three types:

Coir Matting

Coir mats are suitable for all entrance areas and are manufactured from natural and durable coconut fibres that offer fantastic scraping qualities. These mats are sturdy and have a brush-like texture to maximise the reduction of dirt and moisture levels. We supply our coir mats in a variety of colours, sizes, and thicknesses, to complement a range of interiors and purposes. For extra safety, all of our coir mats are backed with durable PVC. The PVC backing helps to retain surplus water, reducing the risk of slippery floors. We also stock coir mats with a ramped rubber edge, to further reduce trip accidents.

Synthetic Matting

Synthetic or brush matting is an alternative to coir but manufactured out of 100% synthetic fibres that do not moult or shed. Our brush mats are a superb option, designed with a ribbed texture to collect mud and dirt before it transfers onto the floor. Depending on the amount of foot traffic your building experiences, we also have hard-wearing options available. For heavy traffic areas, our hard-wearing ADEM mats are a great choice, designed with a heavy-duty ribbed surface that is effective at removing larger particles of dirt. These are suitable for entranceways that are prone to harsh weather conditions.

Throw Down Entrance Mats

We offer two types of throw down mats; heavy-duty throw down and luxury throw down, which are perfectly suited for any indoor area. These indoor mats are great for improving the look of your interiors, whilst still remaining practical. Our throw down mats are available in a variety of colours to brighten up any given space and are excellent at dust control.

It’s important that your building has the right kind of matting to ensure no harm is caused to your employees and visitors. According to the Health & Safety Executive, 90% of slip and trip accidents occur in public buildings and workplaces because of wet floors. This figure can be significantly reduced with the selection of mats that we supply. Please feel free to browse our website to find the perfect mat for you and your business.

Choosing the Right Entrance Mat

Selecting the appropriate entrance mat involves considering several factors. Here are some key considerations to keep in mind:

Traffic Volume: Determine the expected foot traffic in your building's entrance area. Higher traffic areas require more durable and heavy-duty mats to withstand wear and tear.

Climate and Weather Conditions: Consider the prevailing weather conditions in your area. If you experience frequent rain or snow, choose mats with excellent moisture absorption properties to prevent slips and falls.

Size and Shape: Measure the dimensions of your entrance area to ensure the mat fits perfectly. Consider whether a standard-size mat or a modular mat is more suitable for your space.

Maintenance Requirements: Different mats have varying maintenance needs. Some mats can be easily cleaned with a vacuum or by shaking them off, while others may require periodic washing or professional cleaning.

Aesthetics and Branding: If you want to create a strong visual impact, opt for mats that can be customised with your logo or personalised design. Ensure that the mat's colour and style align with the overall aesthetics of your space.

Safety Features: Look for mats with non-slip backings or bevelled edges to minimize tripping hazards. Additionally, consider mats with anti-static properties in environments where electrostatic discharge is a concern.

Entrance mats play a crucial role in creating a welcoming and safe environment for visitors. By effectively trapping dirt and moisture, they not only protect the integrity of your floors but also enhance the overall appearance of your space. With a wide range of mat types available, choosing the right one requires careful consideration of factors such as traffic volume, weather conditions, maintenance requirements, and branding opportunities. Investing in high-quality entrance mats will undoubtedly leave a positive and lasting impression on your guests, ensuring that their first step into your building is both pleasant and safe.

All of the Entrance Matting that we have in stock is available in a number of different colours and sizes to match perfectly with your interior colour schemes and fit in the spaces you need them to fit into.

What Size Entrance Mat Should I Choose?

When it comes to the size of your mat, there is no right or wrong answer, as it comes down to personal preference. However, as commercial matting specialists, we do have some recommendations. When deciding on entrance matting, you might want to consider the size of your entranceway and the level of traffic it experiences, to stop dirt from entering your building as much as possible. In most cases, the larger the mat is the better, as you will want to have enough floor coverage for people to wipe their feet. The perfect entrance mat will cover a sufficient amount of ground, successfully removing dirt from shoes to keep your floors clean.

Here at Commercial Matting, we offer pre-sized mats to fit standard mat well dimensions, however, we do also provide a made-to-measure service. If you have an obscure area to fill or require a larger-sized mat, simply send us your size requirements and we will deliver you a quality mat that is cut to size.
