FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the mat?
The mat measures approximately 35cm in width and 30cm in depth, with a height of 6.5cm.
How often should I clean the doormat?
For best performance, it's recommended to clean loose dirt regularly by beating or brushing. A deeper rinse may be needed depending on foot traffic and weather conditions.
Can this mat be used indoors?
While it is designed to prevent dirt from entering, it can be used indoors. However, be aware that coir can shed, and it's best placed on a surface that can tolerate some debris or is easily cleaned.
Is the brown color consistent across all mats?
The mat is described as brown. As it is made from natural coir, slight variations in shade may occur.
What is the best way to dry the mat after washing?
After rinsing, lay the mat flat to dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid hanging it, as this can distort its shape.
Will this mat scratch delicate flooring if used indoors?
It is primarily intended for outdoor use. If used indoors, it is advisable to place it on a non-delicate surface or use a protective underlay to prevent potential scratching.
Troubleshooting
Mat is shedding fibers
Some shedding is normal for new coir mats. This will reduce over time with use and cleaning. If excessive shedding persists, ensure the mat is not being subjected to excessive abrasion.
Dirt is not being effectively removed
Ensure the mat is placed directly outside the door where shoes are wiped. For heavily soiled shoes, a secondary brush or wipe may be necessary. Check that the bristles are not overly matted down and attempt to brush them clean.
Mat appears damp or waterlogged
Allow the mat to dry completely in a well-ventilated area before repositioning. Avoid leaving the mat in areas where it will be constantly exposed to rain or standing water.
Mat is curling at the edges
Place heavy objects on the curled edges for a period or try rolling the mat in the opposite direction of the curl. Ensure it is laid flat on a stable surface.
