PVC Floor Tile supplies entrance matting sold per metre, allowing customers to order a practical length for doorways, entrance passages, reception areas and wider commercial access points.
Ordering entrance mats by the metre can reduce unnecessary joins, improve coverage and create a neater installation compared with placing several small mats next to one another.
Entrance matting creates a cleaning zone between the outside environment and the interior floor. Depending on the product, the surface may scrape larger debris, trap finer dirt, absorb moisture or combine more than one of these functions.
Front doors, apartment entrances, covered patios and home access points.
Reception doors, foyers, corridors and staff entrances.
Customer entrances, shopping areas and service counters.
Classroom entrances, administration buildings and busy passages.
Shopping centres, healthcare facilities, hotels and public buildings.
Staff entrances, office access points and selected high-use doorways.
Important: Entrance mats do not remove every floor risk. The product must match the location, weather exposure, traffic level and type of dirt or moisture entering the building. Mats should also remain flat, correctly positioned and regularly maintained.
| Mat type | Best suited to | Main function | Recommended environment |
|---|---|---|---|
| General Entrance Mats | Homes, offices, shops, schools and receptions | General dirt and moisture control | Indoor, covered or suitable outdoor entrances depending on material |
| Coir Mats | Homes, offices and protected entrances | Scrapes dry dirt, sand and loose debris | Indoor and covered entrance areas |
| Vinyl Spaghetti Mats | Wet access points and high-dirt entrances | Looped structure traps dirt and moisture | Selected indoor, covered and outdoor areas |

Indoor entrance mats are commonly used after the initial exterior or covered scraping stage. Depending on their construction, they may capture finer dust and absorb moisture remaining on footwear.
Suitable locations include office receptions, shopping centres, hotels, schools, healthcare facilities, apartment buildings and residential entrances.
Outdoor entrance mats are normally selected to remove larger debris such as mud, gravel, leaves and sand before people reach the internal entrance.
Outdoor suitability depends on the mat material. Not every mat can remain exposed to direct sunlight, heavy rainfall or standing water, so the product specifications should be checked before installation.
A multi-stage entrance system can provide better dirt and moisture control than a single short mat.
The first stage can remove coarse dirt and mud, while the internal stage captures finer particles and remaining moisture. Larger commercial buildings may benefit from longer matting zones that allow several footsteps across the surface.
Commercial entrances often experience regular customer and staff movement. The selected matting should suit the expected traffic, entrance width, weather exposure and cleaning programme.
Commercial entrance mats may be used in:
For the surrounding business floor, browse the Commercial Flooring collection .
High-use entrances may need stronger matting designed for repeated pedestrian traffic and more demanding cleaning schedules.
Product suitability should be confirmed for shopping centres, hospitals, schools, transport facilities, factories, logistics buildings and other busy access points.
Heavy-duty does not mean every mat is suitable for wheeled equipment, vehicles or industrial machinery. Confirm the exact loads and use before ordering.
Sold-per-metre entrance matting gives customers flexibility when planning custom doorways, long walkways and wider entrance zones.
Always confirm the roll width because ordering by length does not automatically change the product width.
Measure the usable entrance width and confirm the fixed roll width of the selected matting.
Measure how far the mat should extend from the doorway into the entrance or reception area.
Confirm that the door can open freely without catching the mat or creating movement at the edge.
Where the mat will sit inside a mat well, measure the internal width, length and depth carefully.
The mat should provide useful contact with footwear along the natural walking route rather than covering only a small section beside the doorway.
| Traffic level | Typical areas | Main considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Light traffic | Homes, private offices and small consulting rooms | Appearance, doorway size and routine cleaning |
| Medium traffic | Retail stores, restaurants, hotels, churches and schools | Dirt control, durability and cleaning frequency |
| High traffic | Shopping centres, hospitals, universities and public buildings | Longer entrance zones, wear resistance and frequent maintenance |
Warehouses and factories may use entrance mats between external yards, staff areas, offices and administrative sections.
Rubber-based or stronger scraper mats may be more appropriate where dirt levels are high or the entrance forms part of a demanding work environment.
Entrance matting should not be installed in forklift, pallet-jack or vehicle routes unless the product has been confirmed for that use.
Polypropylene is commonly used in textile-style entrance matting. Depending on construction, it may capture dirt and moisture in indoor or covered commercial entrances.
Rubber mats are often chosen for resilient entrance and utility applications. Outdoor and chemical suitability depends on the exact rubber compound and product design.
Combination mats may use scraping and absorbent sections to help control more than one type of contamination at the doorway.
The correct cleaning method depends on the product material. Check whether the mat can be washed, rinsed, vacuumed or only spot-cleaned before using water or detergents.
Products listed as sold per metre allow customers to select the required length. Confirm the fixed roll width before ordering.
They help remove or trap dirt, dust, debris and moisture from footwear before these materials spread further into a building.
Outdoor scraper mats generally target larger debris, while indoor mats may capture finer dirt and moisture. Suitability depends on the exact material.
