Why Heavy Duty Entrance Mats Matter

Why Heavy Duty Entrance Mats Matter

Heavy duty entrance mats are essential for businesses and public spaces with constant foot traffic.

Unlike standard mats, heavy-duty entrance mats are specifically engineered to withstand the constant, heavy foot traffic found in workplaces and public buildings. These mats act as a first line of defence, effectively trapping dirt, moisture, and debris right at the door.

By stopping dirt at the entrance, these mats do more than just keep your floors clean. They help reduce maintenance costs, protect your interior flooring from premature wear and tear, and create a safer environment by preventing slips and falls. Ultimately, whether in an office, school, retail store, or your home, heavy-duty mats are a durable and reliable way to keep your entrances clean, safe, and professional.

How to Choose the Right Heavy-Duty Entrance Mat

How to Choose the Right Heavy-Duty Entrance Mat

Selecting the ideal heavy-duty mat for your business involves assessing the specific needs of your space:

  • Location: For outdoor use, choose rubber mats like our EntraGuard for dirt removal and water drainage. For indoor spaces, opt for absorbent mats to keep floors dry.
  • Traffic Volume: Busy entrances require mats with reinforced backings and durable fibres to handle high footfall.
  • Weather Resistance: In areas prone to rain or snow, absorbent mats like our AquaProtect can manage moisture effectively.
  • Custom Options: For branding and personalisation, consider custom logo mats to make a lasting impression.

Frequently asked questions

The things shoppers ask us most about entrance matting.

What sizes are available for heavy-duty entrance mats?

For most commercial entrances, the standard sizes 90cm x 150cm and 120cm x 180cm will be the best option. We also offer rolls and custom sizes to fit larger entrances or corridors.

Can heavy-duty mats be used outdoors?

While carpet textured mats should only be used indoors, we do offer mats designed for outdoor use, which are made from water and UV-resistant rubber for all year round usage.

How do I clean a heavy-duty entrance mat?

Most mats can be cleaned with a vacuum or hosed down. Some, like our Renown Mat, are machine washable for added convenience.

What materials are best for high-traffic areas?

Synthetic fibres like Polypropylene for the carpet pile, and backings made with Rubber are ideal for durability and grip. These ensure the mats perform well in busy environments.

Do heavy-duty mats absorb water from shoes?

Yes, heavy-duty entrance mats are often thicker and more absorbent than standard mats. Mats like our AquaProtect can absorb up to 6 litres of water per square metre, keeping floors dry and safe.

Can I get a custom-made heavy-duty mat?

Absolutely! We offer custom-made mats, including branded logo mats, to meet your specific size and design requirements.

Which of your Heavy-Duty Mats is the best?

The best mat depends on what you need most, whether it's pure performance and durability, or a greater choice of colours and sizes to match the surroundings. If in doubt, our AquaProtect is a fantastic and very popular mat, which is used everywhere from homes and offices to schools and shopping centres.

What is the difference between coir matting and commercial carpeted entrance matting?

Coir matting has a brush-like surface made from coconut husk fibres, making it ideal for scraping dirt at entrances, matwells and porches. Commercial carpeted entrance matting is a lower-profile polypropylene matting designed to trap dirt and moisture in busy public entrances, and is better suited where a thinner, more fitted entrance mat is needed.
