Mat-well mats; which are also known as fitted door mats, recessed door mats and inset door mats, are designed to be a permanent matting area that fits into a specific mat well or recess. The main advantage of fitting mats this way is that their surfaces are flush with the surrounding floors. Because of this, they are the preferred option for publicly accessed buildings such as supermarkets, large offices and amenities (schools, libraries, etc.) Coir matting is also commonly fitted into a matwell, especially in older buildings such as pubs, restaurants and homes.
There are many different variations of mats for matwells ranging from colours, textures and pile length that you can choose from. Below is a summary of the expanding selection of mat well mats that we offer:
One of the most popular choices for inset and fitted door mats in homes and older buildings, recessed coir matting is a very hard-wearing and versatile material that can be cut to size for virtually any shaped recess. Used in an aptitude of locations and historic buildings, coir matting has stood a test of time due to its natural absorbency and densely packed bristles – great against dirt and moisture.
If ordering Coir for a mat well, we advise that you add an extra 3cm to your measured sizes to allow for variances in the shape and squareness of the mat-well area. Any excess can be trimmed off using a sharp blade as the mat is fitted.
Matwell tiles are incredibly efficient and cost-effective pieces of kit - suitable for high volumes of footfall in busy commercial areas where safety is pivotal. They are suitable for wheeled traffic, making matwell tiles ideal for places like supermarkets and hotel entrances.
With an interlocking system, Mat well tiles are easy to install and can be trimmed to shape for a perfect fit. Mat-well tiles also sport a clever open or closed system, giving you the choice to allow debris to fall underneath the mat (open) or on top of it (closed) depending on how you want to clean it.
Each tile measures 29cm x 44cm, so simply order enough tiles to cover the area you have measured and clip them together to make one complete matted area. Excess can be cut with a sharp blade.
Unfortunately, we cannot offer matwell installation service but if you are considering installing a mat recess by yourself or know someone who can, below we have put together an essential guide of insider tips, tricks and advice that you need to know before getting your own personal matwell fitted or your home, office or building.
Please be aware that depending on the underlying surface and size of the entrance, mat wells can also be added to non-recessed doors by yourself or a specialist carpenter.
No. Matwells can be placed outside of doors but are exclusively used inside buildings for two major reasons. Firstly, most mat-well frames are comprised from metals or wood including iron, steel, brass, aluminium, copper, pine or oak. When in contact with water or oxygen emitted from outdoor environments, these materials start to decompose, decay and rust over time - massively reducing the effectiveness and lifespan of the matwell.
Another reason is because of the installation issues and safety risks mat recesses impose to visitors. Unlike indoor environments and floorings, trying to add a matwell frame on rough uneven concrete slabs, pavement and earth is not advised.
If you have a mat that is either not thick enough to fill the matwell frame then you can use an underlaying surface to raise the level of your mat. Popular choices for this include PU Foam underlay rolls, plyboard and medium-density fibreboard (MDF).
Yes, you can, but you will need to check your mat beforehand as not all mats are suitable to be placed within mat frames for varying reasons. Factors such as the size, backing, plush height, mat performance and more can determine if converting a loose-lay mat within a mat well frame is viable or not.
Our matwell mats have been expertly selected and certified for low and high-profile mat wells – taking any pressure with the compatibility and safety issues when choosing your picture-perfect mat.
Both matting options can be beneficial, but the main difference is that mat well mats are intended as a permanent solution whereas loose lay mats can be added and removed as needed, such as in extreme weather conditions.
Matwell Mats
Loose-lay Mats
Both options are designed to do the same job but do so in different ways. For buildings with a high volume of foot traffic such as supermarkets, train stations or airports for example, permanent and flush matting is essential to reduce the risk of trips whilst offering exceptional performance so a matwell solution is required. This can be supplemented with loose lay mats when needed too.
In a home or a building with low amounts of traffic then a loose lay mat will most likely be more than sufficient, but some homeowners may choose a fitted mat such as coir simply for aesthetic reasons.
To conclude, if you are looking to buy a mat for an existing mat-well, have one installed or are not still a bit overwhelmed with your options our best advice would be to decide on whatever suits your needs and preferences the most. Whether this is a custom cut coir mat for your traditional cottage or a loose-lay entrance mat for your office – the end choice is up to you, your work and your visitors.
