Product Description
Construct a door mat surround in your hall with the Premier Matwell for floors that expand
Create a practical and smart entrance to your home
- The Premier Matwell door mat surround is made in solid brass and available in a choice of 10 smart metal finishes to achieve a quality look to your entrance into your home.
- Supplied in a choice of lengths for constructing matwells of any size. Note: this is not supplied as a ready-made frame.
- The Premier Matwell Floating is ideal for coir (17mm thick) or ribbed (12mm thick) matting in a recessed matwell.
- Use this floating Matwell when your surrounding floorcovering is a floating one and therefore requires allowances for expansion e.g. floating LVT, certain types of engineered wood, timber and laminate floors.
- No screws are involved (just glue) and therefore ideal where underfloor heating could be an issue.
- The finished mat frame is designed to sit slightly raised above the floor level whilst also fixing into the recessed matwell.
- Available 900mm, 1000mm, 1800mm and 2700mm lengths to make on site any shape or size of frame to suit your needs.
- If your flooring is non-floating e.g. porcelain, stuck wood etc, then take a look at the Premier Matwells for Non Floating flooring. If your flooring is carpet you can use the Premier Square instead.
Size options
- A choice of three expansion options: please refer to the manufacturer of your flooring to determine which expansion allowance you need. The options are small (11mm expansion), medium (15mm expansion) and large (23mm expansion) for both the 12mm and 17mm matwell profiles.

- Calculate the size of the mat and add together the external dimensions to determine how many lengths you need to purchase.
- Build up under the mat to the appropriate height (see video) using the Shims provided.

Looking after & cleaning matwell edging and door thresholds
This product is made of solid brass and hand-finished and therefore the finish may vary slightly from batch to batch. To achieve an authentic look and withstand daily use, they are unlacquered and therefore may age naturally over time, depending on their environment.
