Are you thinking of purchasing entrance mats for a condominium or facility that you manage? Entrance mats can help create an attractive and appealing welcome for your condominium building, commercial building, store front, or office. Other than aesthetic appeal, they have multiple benefits to help protect your flooring finish, reduce your housekeeping costs, and keep everyone safe.

Here are some important reasons to place entrance mats at every door:

Line of defense for the carpet

One of the biggest advantages of placing entrance mats at each door is that they track and capture dirt, debris, and moisture from migrating into the property! Dirt, debris, and moisture brought into a property comes in on the soles of our shoes. Entrance mats become the first line of defense for the indoor area, whether the interior is carpeted or not. Entrance mats wipe and/or scrape the soles of the foot traffic coming and going from a property, which then holds it in place and reduces the soiling of the carpets throughout or from wearing down the finish on hard surface flooring.

Provides a layer of security

Entrance matting provides an extra layer of security and safety by preventing accidental slips and falls. Whether you see neighbors or visitors rushing or walking into a property, entrance mats that are securely in place, prevent slips and falls. During extreme weather conditions in any season, entrance mats remove dirt, debris, and moisture from the soles of our shoes, which then stop the migration to the rest of the property. Quality entrance mats will trap and hold moisture making it safe for people to walk in without slipping.

Makes interiors attractive

Entrance mats provide an aesthetic appeal to the interior. Attractive entrance mats can add a decorative touch to any property’s entry way. They create a feeling of warmth and security. As a condominium or building manager, you can work with the entrance matting providers to find the perfect color, style and size that suits the décor and the building’s decorative theme.

Improves indoor air quality

A building’s indoor air quality can be compromised due to dust, contaminants and other allergens that come in on the soles of footwear. People with severe allergies, asthma or other health concerns can often feel the effects of accumulated allergens in an area. Entrance matting can help to reduce the migration of these allergens throughout the building. Proper vacuuming and hot water extraction can help maintain the entrance matting as well, while eliminating the trapped allergens.
