FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of this stair runner?

This specific runner measures 100 cm in width and 450 cm in length.

Is this runner suitable for outdoor use?

While it is waterproof and fade-resistant, it is designed and rated for indoor, heavy domestic use. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions may affect its longevity.

Can I install this runner on carpeted stairs?

The gel latex backing is designed for hard surfaces. Installation on carpeted stairs is not recommended as it may not adhere properly and could create a tripping hazard.

How do I clean up a liquid spill?

Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel. For more significant spills, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap if necessary, then rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry completely.

What does 'Heavy Domestic wear rating' mean?

This rating indicates that the runner is constructed to withstand frequent and heavy use in a typical home environment, including high-traffic areas like hallways and staircases.

Can I use this runner on stairs with underfloor heating?

The material is generally compatible with underfloor heating, but it's always advisable to check the specific requirements of your underfloor heating system and consult with an installer if unsure.

Is the red color prone to fading?

No, the runner is fade-resistant, meaning it is designed to maintain its color vibrancy even with exposure to natural light over time.

Troubleshooting

Runner is not lying flat

Ensure the subfloor is completely flat and dry. If the runner has been rolled for a long time, allow it to relax unrolled in a warm room for 24-48 hours. Check that the gel latex backing is clean and free from debris.

Slipping or movement

Ensure the gel latex backing is clean and free from dust or residue. For added security, consider using double-sided carpet tape or appropriate gripper rods, especially on very smooth surfaces.

Stain is difficult to remove

For stubborn stains, try a mild detergent solution. Blot gently and rinse thoroughly with clean water. Avoid excessive rubbing, which can spread the stain or damage the fibers. Test any cleaning solution in an inconspicuous area first.

Edges are fraying after cutting

Use a very sharp blade (utility knife or heavy-duty scissors) when cutting to ensure a clean, straight edge. Avoid sawing motions. If minor fraying occurs, a small amount of fabric glue applied sparingly to the edge can help prevent further unraveling.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability for high-traffic areas.
  • Secure anti-slip backing for safety and stability.
  • Resistant to flattening, maintaining aesthetic appeal.
  • Waterproof, stain, and fade resistant for easy care.
  • Suitable for flexible installation without underlay or gripper rods.

Cons

  • Specific dimensions may require cutting for custom fits.
  • Loop pile construction could potentially snag on very sharp objects.
  • Gel latex backing may not be suitable for all floor types without testing.
  • While stain-resistant, deep-set stains might still be challenging to remove entirely.
  • Thicker pile runners can sometimes be more challenging to vacuum thoroughly compared to very low-pile options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This stair runner can be installed flexibly. While underlay or gripper rods can be used for added cushioning and security, the gel latex backing may allow for direct fitting on many surfaces if preferred. Ensure the surface where the runner will be placed is clean and dry before installation. Cut to size if necessary, using sharp scissors or a utility knife for clean edges.

Compatibility: The gel latex backing provides grip on most surfaces. However, it is always recommended to test in an inconspicuous area or consult with a flooring professional if you have concerns about specific floor types (e.g., delicate natural stone or certain varnished finishes).

Care: Due to its stain-resistant and waterproof properties, general cleaning involves regular vacuuming to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which could damage the fibers or backing. For deeper cleaning, a mild detergent mixed with water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
