FITTING A MODULAR ENTRY MAT
The mat can be easily trimmed to accommodate lower heights and narrower
widths and, if necessary, notched to suit the doorjamb configuration.
Alternately, mat can be combined with an additional Modular Entry Mat and
one set of
Risers to create a maximum height of 4¾”.
1. If door threshold is equal to the height of the Modular Entry Mat (2½”
high), use mat as is (FIG. 2, section A).
2. If door threshold is less than the height of the Modular Entry Mat (2½”
high), trim mat to the desired height, depth and/or width using a
reciprocating saw, razor knife, or hand saw (FIG. 1).
Use caution when operating any non-manual saw as serious
injury may result due to unexpected binding or pinching of
rubber mat
material. Always follow tool manufacturer’s safety
guidelines.
3. If door threshold is greater than the height of the Modular Entry Mat (2½”
high), two Modular Entry Mats (shown in FIG. 2, sections A & B) along
with one pair of Risers (FIG. 2, section C) can be combined to
accommodate a rise up to 4¾” high.
With this configuration, section A must remain at its original
height (ok to trim width only).
a. FIG. 2, section B, can be trimmed to the desired height, depth
and/or width. If section B is trimmed, section C, which is used to
increase overall height, needs to be trimmed to match the depth
and/or width of section B.
b. Secure section B to section C using supplied Phillips Head
Screws.
FASTENING THE MAT
It is recommended that the mat be securely fastened.
1. ATTACHING TO WOOD
a. Place mat in desired location and ensure that
surface is free of dirt and debris.
b. Secure mat using supplied Phillips head screws
(2 each). Space screws evenly (see FIG. 2 for
placement) and drive until head is ¼” below the
mat surface.
2. ATTACHING TO CONCRETE
a. Place mat in desired location and ensure that
surface is free of dirt and debris.
b.
Using a ¼” diameter masonry bit, drill a hole 2”
deep 1” from the corner edges at the taper
(FIG. 2).
Ensure the holes are free of any
residue.
c.
Drive the supplied ¼” diameter mushroom
head pin anchors (two each) into the holes
with a hammer until the head is seated.
SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
1. At all times, keep mat clear of snow, ice, dirt,
leaves, and other debris that may accumulate on
the surface.
2. Clean mat with mild soap and warm water. Rinse
well and use extra caution when mat surface is wet.
