What should be considered when buying a runner rug?

When choosing a runner rug, factors such as the dimensions of the area to be used, the style and colour scheme of the space, walking comfort and ease of cleaning should be taken into consideration. While thin runner rug models offer a more minimalist and simple look, durability and quality are also important. Options that provide a comfortable feeling under your feet with their soft texture and contribute to sound insulation can be preferred especially in multi-storey apartments or places with sound permeability.

The runner rugs that you will include in your home as a decorative item differ with different weaving techniques and materials. For example, bamboo runner rug models create a natural atmosphere on the floor, while laser cut runner rug models offer a more modern and artistic expression. Choosing the colour in harmony with other textile products and furniture to be used in the room will help you maintain aesthetic integrity.

On the other hand, you should also consider the intended use of the runner rug. Kitchen runner rug models should have stain-resistant and easy-to-clean properties, because spilled liquids and food stains can be encountered more frequently in kitchens. Entranceway runner rug models, on the other hand, should be dirt-repellent to prevent the spread of dirt and dust that can be brought from outside to the interior.

To prolong the life of your runner rug, remember that you should apply cleaning methods suitable for its material and weaving type. For example, a hand-woven rug runner rug may require delicate cleaning, while modern runner rug models made of synthetic materials may offer more practical cleaning opportunities. Regular maintenance of the runner rugs will protect both their appearance and lifetime.

Non-slip soles that you can place under your runner rug provide extra safety, especially in homes with children and elderly people. Non-slip soles protect the floor while helping to keep the runner rug stable. Lifting and ventilating from time to time so that the bottom of the bed liner can breathe will also increase the hygiene and freshness of the bed liner.

Considering that the pathway you will prefer will be the first item you encounter when you enter the house, you can choose more assertive and striking patterns for entrance area pathways. Thus, you will invest in entrance hall runner rug models that will reflect the energy of your home in the first step.

How to measure the runner rug?

Taking the right runner rug size increases the effect of the runner rug as a complementary element of the space. Measuring the length and width of the area to be placed is very important in terms of both aesthetics and functionality. For example, a 4 metre runner rug is perfect for a long and narrow corridor.

When measuring, it is important to consider the entire length of the corridor or passageway and to leave a suitable space around the runner rug. In this way, the runner rug both defines the circulation area and is pleasing to the eye. While standard sizes such as 80x150 runner rugs are preferred for small spaces, you can choose the most suitable runner rug for your space with measurements.

The width of the runner rugs is as important as the length. Generally, the width of a standard runner rug is one third of the width of the corridor or passage. This measurement allows the runner rug to integrate harmoniously with the space. You can personalise your decoration with grey runner rug models or colour options suitable for the space.

For a complete runner rug decoration, the runner rugs should be selected in a certain order as unifying elements that will provide the transition between different spaces. For example, harmonious designs are recommended to connect the entrance of the house with the entrance hall runner rug models, the kitchen area with the kitchen runner rug models and the bathroom floor with the bathroom runner rug models.

Taking the right measurements is a very important factor in creating the aesthetic and functionality you desire in your space. IKEA's exclusive designs are designed to help you find the perfect runner rug for you, with a choice of runner rug sizes and handy size guides. IKEA's range of high-quality runner rugs offers a variety of styles to suit any space, with both modern and traditional styles to enhance the atmosphere of your home or workplace.

What should be done to prevent the runner rugs from slipping?

Ensuring that the runner rugs remain stable in terms of safety and comfort is a necessity that we frequently encounter in homes and workplaces. Anti-slip runner rugs are especially preferred in homes with children and in environments where elderly people live, thanks to the extra grip they provide while walking. Placing non-slip pads specially produced by IKEA under your runner rug prevents scratching the surfaces and allows you to use your runner rug safely.

Non-slip base mats placed under the runner rugs are effective in laying the runner rugs properly and preventing them from moving on a flat surface. These mats slow down the wear of the runner rug, prolong its life and reduce disturbing noises. For high traffic areas, non-slip tapes with extra adhesive or double-sided adhesive bases are also functional solutions. These products hold the runner rugs firmly in place and can prevent possible accidents.

In order for your runner rugs to remain stable even under changing light and temperature conditions at different times of the day, the bottom base of the runner rug should be checked regularly and the necessary cleaning procedures should be carried out. In order to provide a long-term solution to your runner rugs, it is also possible to apply anti-slip measures only at certain points instead of fixing all edges of the runner rug.

In order to prevent slipping on the runner rugs or mats, in addition to using an adhesive base under the runner rug, regular maintenance and cleaning also helps to maintain the non-slip feature. It should be kept in mind that the detergents and cleaners used during cleaning should not damage the surfaces under the runner rug and should not adversely affect the anti-slip properties.
