Posted: March 10, 2023 |
We know the importance of using floor mats in our homes. But you may not know which one to choose and how to use it in the right place. There are different types of mats, and each type has a purpose. They must be used in the appropriate areas in the house to avoid entry of dust, and debris, and to absorb wetness. So, without knowledge about mats, you cannot properly place the right type in the right place. With this in mind, we shall discuss the type of mat to be used in different parts of our house in the best way. Here are the places in your home you will need mats compulsorily and we shall also mention the type of mat you must use for it. Entrance Doors Entrances are the major areas where dust can easily enter the home. People who enter the house through these entrances can easily bring in dust with their shoes. So, you have to place a mat at every entrance door or entry point of your house. These mats must be in such a way that they will scrape away the dust stuck in your shoes or slippers. They can either be plain brush and scraper mats or logo mats that might attract your guests. These scraper mats will have long brush-like bristles which remove most of the dirt from your shoes. Even if people don’t wipe them off on the mat, dust can be removed just by walking over them. Inside the entrance Previously we talked about placing scraper mats outside the entrance door which will be outside the house. But it is also very useful if you have one soon after opening the entrance door. Since many people might skip brushing off their shoes on the outer doormat, this inner doormat will help further reduce the dust entering the home. You can place the mat in a vertical manner or length-wise to trap the dust within a particular distance without letting it all over the home. Mats in Wet areas In some parts of the house, you may be using water and the area might be prone to a lot of wetness. For example, in the backyard entrance, you might be watering your garden and it is important to have a proper mat to trap the wetness before entering the house. This is where absorption mats come into play. These mats offer both scrapings and retain wetness with it. It should be placed appropriately in the entrance towards the garage and the backyard. Conclusion These are the areas where a mat is highly necessary, and you must not skip using a mat in these places. It will help protect your flooring and prevents dust from entering the house.
