Product Information
Full details
The Rugs Derby Doormat is a high-performance entry solution designed for busy households looking to trap dirt and debris before it tracks into the home. Ideal for hallways, porches, and sheltered outdoor entrances, this 45cm by 75cm mat combines a sturdy rubber surround with a natural, removable coir insert to effectively scrub shoes clean. While it is built for durability and convenience, it is best suited for sheltered areas rather than fully exposed outdoor environments where heavy rain could saturate the material.

FAQs
Can I use this mat outside?
Yes, it is suitable for sheltered outdoor areas like covered porches, but it should not be left in fully exposed areas where it will be soaked by rain.
How do I clean the removable insert?
You can remove the coir insert to shake it out vigorously, brush it, or vacuum it thoroughly to remove embedded dirt.
Will this mat damage my hardwood floors?
The PVC backing is designed to be floor-friendly, but we recommend ensuring both the floor and the mat are clean of grit before placement to prevent scratches.
Is the size customizable?
The Derby Doormat comes in a fixed 45cm by 75cm size and cannot be trimmed.
What should I do if the mat gets wet?
If the mat gets damp, move it to a well-ventilated area to allow the coir to dry completely to prevent odors or mold growth.
Troubleshooting
The mat slides on the floor
Ensure the floor surface is completely clean and dry before placing the mat, as dust or moisture under the PVC backing can reduce grip.
Visible shedding of coir fibers
It is normal for natural coir to shed slightly when new. Regular vacuuming will remove loose fibers and settle the pile.
Debris trapped under the mat
Lift the mat regularly to sweep the floor area underneath, ensuring that no grit buildup compromises the grip of the PVC backing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Derby Doormat is straightforward; simply place the mat on a clean, dry floor surface. The PVC backing will naturally grip the floor to prevent movement. Maintenance is equally simple: for routine cleaning, lift the mat to shake out debris, or use a vacuum cleaner to pull dirt from the coir fibers. If the coir insert becomes heavily soiled, it can be removed from the rubber surround for a more thorough brushing. To prolong the life of the product, avoid placing it in areas that receive direct, heavy rainfall, as natural coir fibers perform best when kept in sheltered, dry environments.
