Why Should You Use a Rug Pad?
SAFETY
Rug pads hold rugs in place, helping prevent bunching & slipping
PROTECTION
Rug pads provide a buffer zone for dirt and dust, keeping them off of your hard surfaces, preventing staining and permanent damage.
CUSHIONING
Add cushion for a softer feel under foot. Rug pads provide extra padding, increasing comfort.
LONGEVITY
Rug pads protect the rug’s weave, extending the life of the rug.
How to Install Rug Pad
Make sure to measure your rug, and then mark off your rug pad so that the finished pad will leave approximately one inch of rug overlap on all sides. That doesn’t include any decorative edges or fringes.
Measure
Measure and mark rug pad 2” shorter, width and length, than your rug to allow for 1” overlap on all sides. Do not include fringe or tassels in measurements.
Cut
Trim rug pad along marked lines with a sturdy pair of household scissors. Place the trimmed rug pad where you want the rug to lie on the floor.
Place
Position the rolled-up rug on one end, with the edges lined up straight with the pad. Unroll the rug onto the pad, making sure that it lies flat without bunching.
