airports and other transportation hubs experience a continual inflow and outflow of visitors each day.\u00a0 Such busy locations require unique <strong>commercial matting<\/strong> systems designed to clean and trap substantial amounts of dirt and debris, all while resting at a low profile so as to limit accidental slip-and-falls.<\/p>\n<p>Ordinary <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\" title=\"floor mats\">floor mats<\/a> may slip, slide, or curl as hoards of bustling guests enter and exit the building.\u00a0 Once disoriented, <strong>floor mats<\/strong> lose their ability to control dirt and debris.\u00a0 What\u2019s more, disheveled mats become an obstacle that may cause guests to slip or trip, triggering potential <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\/blog\/preventing-slip-and-fall-accidents-with-floor-mats\/\" title=\"liability for property owners\">liability for property owners<\/a>.\u00a0 <strong>Recessed floor mats<\/strong> are needed in areas of extreme traffic to prevent these problems before they occur.<\/p>\n<h2>How Do Recessed Floor Mats Work?<\/h2>\n<p>Most <strong>Recessed floor mats<\/strong> appear to be identical to ordinary entrance mats.\u00a0 The difference, however, is in their installation.\u00a0 Recessed floor mats are installed in one of two ways.<\/p>\n<p>First, they may be installed within an indentation, or <em>recess<\/em>, in the floor that measures approximately the same length and width of the mat.\u00a0 This makes for a \u201cflush\u201d application whereby the surface of the mat is in near-perfect alignment with the surface of the floor.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, recessed floor mats may be installed within a frame that lies on top of the floor surface.\u00a0 This installation method is referred to as \u201csurface-mounted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, recessed mats may come with \u201cgrills.\u201d\u00a0 These \u201cgrill mats\u201d feature an incredibly durable construction of horizontal metal and carpet inserts.<\/p>\n<h2>Recessed Grill Mats Overview:\u00a0 Pedimat, Peditred, &amp; Pedigrid Systems<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\/recessed-mats-grills-and-cocoa.html\" title=\"Recessed grill mats\">Recessed grill mats<\/a> are a special type of <strong>recessed floor mat<\/strong>.\u00a0 These \u201csystems\u201d are comprised of alternating horizontal strips of carpet and a type of metal, often times aluminum.\u00a0 The metal \u201cgrills\u201d embedded within <strong>Recessed Grill Mats<\/strong> aggressively scrape against the underside of shoes to remove dirt and other debris particles.\u00a0 Dirt and debris is effectively contained by the carpet inserts of Recessed Grill Mats, as is excessive moisture from rain, snow, or humidity.\u00a0 <strong>Eagle Mat and Floor Products<\/strong> carries 3 special types of Recessed Grill Mats:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\/recessed-grill-pedimat.html\" title=\"7\/16\" Recessed Grill Pedimat\">7\/16\u201d Recessed Grill Pedimat<\/a>:\u00a0 The <strong>Pedimat<\/strong> is the most popular Recessed Grill Mat on the market.\u00a0 Heavy-load bearing and noise canceling, the Recessed Grill Pedimat comes in 22 different eye-catching carpet colors that are sure to match most interior color schemes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\/recessed-grill-peditred.html\" title=\"3\/4\" Recessed Grill Peditred\">3\/4\u201d Recessed Grill Peditred<\/a>:\u00a0 The <strong>Peditred<\/strong> is built to withstand the industry\u2019s highest rolling load capacity:\u00a0 1,000 lbs.\u00a0 Engineered to last, this Recessed Grill Mat system is ideal for commercial buildings that experience relentless streams of traffic.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaglemat.com\/recessed-grill-pedigrid.html\" title=\"1 13\/16\" Recessed Grill Pedigrid\">1 13\/16\u201d Recessed Grill Pedigrid<\/a>:\u00a0 At 1 13\/16\u201d tall, the <strong>Pedigrid <\/strong>offers the most height in its class.\u00a0 More height means more room to contain significant amounts of dirt, debris, and moisture, making the Pedigrid an ideal choice for sites that experience high volumes of daily visitors, harsh weather, and persistent debris accumulation.<\/p>\n<h2>Are Recessed Floor Mats Right for You?<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Recessed mats<\/strong> are a superb option for most locations that experience a high volume of visitors each day.\u00a0 What\u2019s more, <strong>recessed floor mats<\/strong> may be installed with \u201csurface-mounts,\u201d eliminating the need to retroactively create a floor recess to facilitate mat installation.<\/p>\n<p>Choosing between a recessed mat and an ordinary entrance mat is a judgment call to be made by property owners or facility managers.\u00a0 Important factors to consider include seasonality of weather, number of expected daily visitors, and other environmental conditions unique to the location of the facility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a
