How to Measure, Cut and Order a Custom Doormat
Get the perfect fit for your space. In this guide, we'll show you how to measure, cut and order a custom doormat step by step. Our made-to-measure doormats work as both a drying mat and a dirt-trapping mat, and can be ordered as a doormat cut to size for any entrance, hallway or recessed floor. Custom cut to your exact dimensions for a perfect fit.
01
The measurement process begins with identifying where your doormat will live.
Measure your recess horizontally (width) and vertically (length).
Always measure at multiple points, as walls and floors are rarely perfectly straight. If your space has corners or irregular edges, take the widest width and longest length. You can trim for a precise fit afterwards.
Use the largest measurements and round up to the nearest whole centimetre.
Order your exact measured size.
Since walls aren't always perfectly straight, we make your mat 5 cm larger in both width and length, giving you a trim allowance so you can adjust it at home for a perfect fit.
Measure the entrance area where you want your mat to sit.
Measure the width and length.
Round up to the nearest whole centimetre.
Order your exact measured size.
Corners or edges can be trimmed if needed. Your mat may vary by up to 1 cm due to the cutting process.
Our custom doormats are super flexible and easy to cut at home. Follow these professional guidelines for a clean edge.
Unroll your mat and let it rest flat. It may look slightly smaller at first, but will settle into its final size. Add a few books if needed.
Measure your space carefully and double-check your dimensions before you start trimming.
Accurate measurements make all the difference.
Use a sharp knife and work step by step. For the cleanest result, make small guide cuts and trim from the back. Check as you go to stay on track.
Take your time, or leave it to a professional, especially for complex shapes.
Shake off any loose fibres. Place your mat and press it down evenly for a perfect fit.

Not sure about the colour?
We recommend ordering a sample first to experience the colour, texture and quality in your own home.
A made-to-measure doormat is custom cut to your exact dimensions, making it ideal for recessed entrances, unusual layouts and spaces where standard sizes don't provide the perfect fit.
A recessed mat sits inside a floor recess for a flush finish. A surface mat is placed directly on top of the floor without installation.
Yes. Our doormats are suitable for both recessed floors (mat wells) and placement directly on top of the floor.
Measure the inside width and length of your recess at multiple points. Since walls and floors are rarely perfectly straight, always use the largest measurements and round up to the nearest centimeter.
For recessed floor installations, we add approximately 2.5 cm extra on each side, in both width and length (5 cm extra in total for each). Since walls aren't always perfectly straight, this gives you a small trim allowance so you can achieve a precise, wall-to-wall fit on-site.
Measure the area where you would like the mat to sit and order your exact dimensions. We recommend rounding up to the nearest centimeter.
Yes. Our doormats can easily be trimmed at home using a sharp utility knife. For the cleanest result, trim from the back and work gradually.

Yes. We recommend pairing your indoor doormat with a brushed outdoor mat. The outdoor mat helps remove coarse dirt and debris before it enters your home, while your indoor doormat absorbs moisture and traps finer dirt. Together, they help keep your floors cleaner and your doormat looking its best for longer.

As each doormat is produced specifically for your order, it cannot be returned or exchanged unless there is a manufacturing defect or quality issue.
For regular maintenance, vacuum the mat frequently to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use water and a mild natural soap solution. Allow the mat to air dry completely before placing it back in use.
The best colour depends on your home and how the entrance is used. Lighter colours tend to show dirt more quickly, while darker colours are often a practical choice for busy households, children and pets.
Yes. Our doormats are OEKO-TEX® certified and tested for harmful substances.
Our doormats are designed to maintain their colour and appearance through everyday use. However, like most textile products, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may gradually cause colours to fade over time.
