FAQs

Is this runner suitable for spiral staircases?

This runner is designed for standard staircases. Its flatweave construction and length may make it challenging to fit precisely on tightly curved spiral stairs without professional cutting and fitting.

How do I clean the runner if it's installed?

For installed runners, spot clean spills immediately by blotting. Regular vacuuming is recommended. For deeper cleaning, a solution of mild detergent and water can be used, followed by thorough blotting. Ensure the area dries completely.

What is the thickness of the runner?

The runner has a slim 2mm flatweave construction, designed for durability and a low profile.

Can I cut this runner to a custom length?

While it's possible to cut polypropylene runners, it requires specialized tools and techniques to prevent fraying. It is recommended to purchase the closest available size or consult a professional installer for custom cuts.

How long will the reversible feature last?

The reversible feature is dependent on the integrity of the runner's construction. With proper care and installation, both sides should remain usable for the product's intended lifespan.

Does the runner come with any fixing materials?

No, this runner does not include fixing materials such as tack strips or adhesive. These must be purchased separately based on your installation method and stair type.

Is the brown plaid pattern consistent on both sides?

The description states the runner is fully reversible, implying the pattern should be consistent or at least present on both sides, offering a fresh look when flipped.

Troubleshooting

Runner is shifting or bunching up.

Ensure the runner is securely fastened to each step using appropriate tack strips, adhesive, or carpet tape. Check that the securing method is suitable for your stair material.

Stubborn stains are not coming out.

Use a dedicated carpet stain remover suitable for polypropylene. Always test the remover on an inconspicuous area first. For outdoor use, consider a pressure washer on a low setting.

Edges are fraying.

This usually indicates the runner is not properly secured or has been cut unevenly. Ensure edges are properly finished and secured. If frayed significantly, consider professional repair or replacement.

Runner appears faded.

While UV resistant, prolonged direct sunlight can eventually cause fading. Ensure the runner is positioned to minimize direct sun exposure or consider using the less-exposed side if it's significant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Measure and Cut (if necessary): Ensure the runner is the correct length for your staircase. While this model is 480cm, custom lengths might require professional cutting.
  2. Secure the Runner: For safety and to prevent shifting, the runner must be securely attached. This typically involves using carpet tack strips along the edge of each step, or a suitable heavy-duty adhesive or double-sided carpet tape.
  3. Installation: Lay the runner smoothly over the steps, ensuring it lies flat. Carefully attach it to the tack strips or apply adhesive as per manufacturer instructions for the securing method.
  4. Reversing: To reverse the runner, carefully detach it from the steps, flip it over, and re-secure it.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for most standard staircase constructions.
  • Can be used on wooden, painted, or carpeted stairs (ensure secure attachment methods are compatible).

Care:

  • Spot Cleaning: For immediate spills, blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mild detergent mixed with water for tougher stains, then rinse and blot dry.
  • Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly to remove dust and debris. Avoid using a beater bar on high-pile settings, as this may damage the flatweave.
  • Deep Cleaning: For a deeper clean, use a hose to rinse the runner (if removed) with water and a mild cleaner, then allow it to air dry completely before reinstallation. Ensure it is completely dry to prevent mold or mildew.
