FAQs
How many stair mats are included in one package?
Each package contains 15 stair mats.
What material are the stair mats made of?
The mats are made of 100% polypropylene needle-punched fabric.
Are these stair mats suitable for outdoor stairs?
These mats are designed for indoor use. Exposure to the elements may degrade the material and adhesive.
Can I cut the stair mats to fit smaller steps?
The mats are foldable and designed to be used as is. Cutting them may fray the edges and compromise the structure.
What are the dimensions of each stair mat?
Each mat measures approximately 65 cm in length, 21 cm in width, and 4 cm in height (L x W x H).
How do I clean the stair mats if they get dirty?
You can spot clean them with a damp cloth or hand-wash/machine-wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Ensure they are fully dry before re-installing.
Will the adhesive damage my stairs?
The mats come with two-sided adhesive tapes. While generally secure, it's advisable to test on an inconspicuous area first, as residue or damage may occur on certain finishes or materials.
Troubleshooting
Mats not sticking securely
Ensure the stair surface is thoroughly cleaned and completely dry before application. Remove any dust, grease, or old adhesive residue. Press down firmly on the mat after placement to activate the adhesive.
Mat shifting during use
Verify that the correct side of the adhesive tape has been used and that sufficient pressure was applied during installation. Clean the stair surface again and reapply the mat, ensuring a strong bond. Consider using stronger double-sided carpet tape if the issue persists.
Color fading over time
While designed for durability, prolonged direct sunlight can cause fading. If placed in a sunny area, consider rotating the mats or using window coverings to reduce UV exposure.
Mat developing creases or wrinkles
Ensure the mat is laid flat and smoothed out during installation. If creases occur after washing, allow the mat to dry completely flat before reattaching it to the stair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure stair steps are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease.
- Peel off the protective backing from the two-sided adhesive tapes on the back of each mat.
- Carefully align the mat with the edge of a stair step, starting from the top or bottom.
- Press down firmly on the mat to ensure secure adhesion.
- Repeat for all desired steps.
Compatibility:
These mats are generally compatible with most standard stair materials, including wood, laminate, and tile. However, test the adhesive on an inconspicuous area first if applying to delicate or antique surfaces, as the adhesive tape may leave residue or affect finishes on certain materials.
Care:
- Cleaning: The mats are washable. Spot clean minor spills immediately with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, they can be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Ensure they are thoroughly dried before reattaching.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the adhesion of the tapes. If a mat becomes loose, re-clean the stair surface and reapply pressure. If the adhesive weakens over time, replacement two-sided tape may be necessary.
