Doormats for a Cleaner and More Welcoming Entrance
A doormat helps remove dirt from shoes before entering your home while also creating a welcoming entrance. Positioned at an entrance, a suitable door mat provides a practical surface for wiping footwear before stepping inside.
Intergard offers decorative doormats in different sizes and designs, including natural coir mats with a rubber anti-slip backing.

Coir Doormats
Coir doormats are made using fibres obtained from coconut husks. Their characteristic natural fibre surface gives the mat a distinctive appearance while providing a practical surface for wiping footwear.
In the UK, these types of mats are commonly known as coir doormats. They may also be referred to as coconut doormats or coconut fibre mats.
Natural Fibre Doormats
The Intergard range includes doormats made from natural materials such as coconut and other natural fibres. The exact composition can vary between individual models, so check the product information when material choice is important.
Natural fibres also give these doormats their characteristic texture and appearance.
Doormats with Rubber Anti-Slip Backing
The supplied product information states that the doormats feature a rubber anti-slip layer. This backing helps provide additional grip between the mat and a suitable floor surface.
The effectiveness of any anti-slip backing also depends on the condition and type of surface beneath it. Position the mat on a clean, stable surface and check that it remains securely in place during use.
Designer Doormats by Rodolfo Navarro
The collection includes handmade doormats designed by Valencian artist and designer Rodolfo Navarro. This gives the range a distinctive decorative identity in addition to its practical function at the entrance.
Different designs allow you to choose a doormat that complements the character and style of your home.
Decorative Doormats
A decorative doormat can make the entrance to your home more welcoming before visitors even step through the door. Instead of being purely functional, the mat becomes part of the appearance of the entrance.
Choose from the available colours and designs according to the style you want to create.
What Size Doormat Do I Need?
The right doormat size depends on the width of the entrance and the available floor space in front of the door. Measure the intended location before ordering rather than choosing a mat based on appearance alone.
Also make sure that the position and thickness of the mat do not interfere with the opening and closing of the door.
How to Measure for a Doormat
Measure the available width and depth at your entrance before selecting a doormat. This helps you choose a mat that is proportionate to the doorway and does not obstruct normal use.
- Measure the width of the entrance.
- Measure the available floor depth.
- Check the direction in which the door opens.
- Allow sufficient clearance for the door.
- Compare your measurements with the available doormat sizes.
How to Choose a Doormat
Choose a doormat according to its size, material, backing and design. A coir mat is particularly recognisable for its natural coconut fibre appearance, while the decorative design determines how it complements your entrance.
Before ordering, consider:
- the dimensions of the entrance;
- the size of the doormat;
- the material;
- the design and appearance;
- the backing;
- the intended location.
Where Should You Place a Doormat?
A doormat should be positioned where footwear can be wiped conveniently before dirt is carried further into the home. The exact location should also be suitable for the materials used in the individual mat.
Always check the product information and care instructions when deciding whether a particular doormat is suitable for the intended indoor, sheltered or outdoor location.
How to Clean a Coir Doormat
Cleaning and maintenance should be appropriate for the natural fibres and backing used in the doormat. Loose dry dirt can be removed regularly, while any additional cleaning should follow the care instructions supplied with the individual product.
Avoid assuming that every natural fibre doormat can be washed or soaked with water unless this is specifically stated for the product.
Are Coir Doormats Suitable for Outdoors?
Outdoor suitability depends on the construction and specifications of the individual doormat. The supplied category information confirms the materials used but does not establish that every mat is suitable for permanent exposure to rain and other weather conditions.
Check the individual product information before positioning a natural fibre doormat in a fully exposed outdoor location.
