For all those high traffic areas in your home or where you have
children constantly going to and fro through the house, then a
carpet runner is an ideal solution. This is particularly so if you
have expensive wall-to-wall carpet and are concerned about wear
and tear.
Hallways, stairways and entrance halls are particularly suited to
runners as they provide a means of visually connecting one room to
another.
A carpet runner is easily cleaned and if damaged or worn can be
easily removed and replaced. Vacuum your runner regularly and in
those areas where the runner is not fixed to the floor, ensure
that you vacuum under the rug as dust tends to fall through to the
undersurface.
Stair runners are almost essential if you have a set of hardwood
stairs. A carpet runner installed on your stairs has many
advantages including:
• Protection from wear and tear
• Provides protection in case of falls
• Softens the sound of heavy footsteps
• Provides traction
Both carpet and stair runners are generally custom-made to suit
your individual requirements. However, you can also purchase a
carpet runner in a pre-cut length if you are not concerned about
an exact fit.
When installing a carpet runner, ensure that you use rug pads to
prevent slipping.
