Look out, the entrance matting market is about to get exciting. It’s not often we have to issue such warnings in an industry that, let's face it, isn’t quite as fast paced as, errrm let's say, Motorsport, but today we feel it’s only right.
No longer do we have to be a slave to the same old standard sizes of mat that fit in more with how the manufacturers work rather than what we need.
There are many matting systems out there nowadays which can be made to custom lengths. There are even some which allow you to do both a custom length and width. However, there are very few that can compare with what a modular system can offer you. Prepare to be thrilled.
Waterhog Classic Modular Tiles are a Modular Entrance Mat System and link together to fit any shape or size of area, whether it be a long run you need to cover, a wide concourse or perhaps you have an entrance in the shape of a dodecahedrane(?) A modular entrance mat system will handle them all and is far more flexible than standard entrance mats for the following reasons:
- Each tile measures 45x45cm (18 x 18 inches) and can be linked together to fit any shape or size of area.
- Tiles can be laid and cut flush to the wall, so that you have a wall-to-wall entrance mat system. Otherwise edging can be fitted around the perimeter of the mat size or shape you choose.
- If you have an existing well or recess, the tiles can be cut to fit into this.
- Got a pesky object in the way, such as a pillar or a wall? Simply cut the tile to fit around this.
- Once laid, tiles can be repositioned, added or removed. So, if you’ve just realised that you don’t actually know what a dodecahedron is, then you can make up for your error and have more or less matting as required.
Traditional bespoke systems, such as metal entrance matting systems, are extremely costly. They typically require an installation team to fit, and you will need to close off the entrance whilst the work is done. Who needs an entrance anyway though right? To avoid this inconvenience, if you can do the simplest of jigsaws, then you can fit Waterhog Classic Modular Tiles yourself. The system requires very little downtime and no installation fees.
Traditional Waterhog Entrance mats have been trusted for use in high foot traffic entrances for decades. When it comes to stopping dirt and water, these tiles match the unrivalled performance of Waterhog mats, and they are just as durable. If a tile did become damaged or worn, they have the added advantage that it can simply be lifted and replaced with a fresh one.
Entrance mats may not excite you as much as they excite us, and we can’t say we blame you, but hopefully we’ve convinced you to find out a little bit more about how these mats can benefit your business.
