Stair runner and the hallway runner rugs create a positive an impression at the entry of your home. A hallway runner rug is designed to lead the visitor into the house to the rooms where the general living and entertaining take place. A stair runner is going to lead upstairs or downstairs and will be largely used to protect the treads of the stairs. A decorative feature that also provides functionality.

There are many different designs and colors that can be used when buying runner rugs and so you will have every opportunity to match the runner rug to the surrounding decor. Visit our showroom for complete details.

There is a difference between a stair runner and a hallway runner. The difference has a lot to do with the way the rugs have been woven and how the edges have been finished. A hallway runner rug will have a bound edge on all four sides because the intention was always to place it out in the open space where foot traffic could walk on it from any angle. The stair runner rug will have come from a single roll and will have been cut to size from this roll. This means that either end is not going to be finished in the same way as a hallway runner.

When a stair runner rug is laid the ends are secured with a strip at either end. At the top of the stairs the end of the rug is secured to the strip that is fitted snugly against the riser. The rug is then fitted into the corner of each riser and tread all the way down until it reaches the bottom. At the bottom of the stairs the rug is again secured, this time to the bottom of the last riser so that it is up against the floor.

To make the installation of your stair runner and your hallway runner as successful as possible, and so that they do not become traffic hazards, a rug pad should be laid underneath to prevent the rug from slipping and to provide a more durable and cushioned surface. Ayoub Carpet Service offers in-home installation of hallway and stair runners.

Use a stair runner carpet to protect the surface of your stairs and for decorative purposes. A runner carpet looks especially great on a wooded staircase, but you must choose the right one. Here are a few tips to help you decide which runner is right for you.

Match to Room Decor

Consider the colors and style of your home before selecting a stair runner carpet. Keep in mind that the stairs are visible both at the base and at the upper landing. If necessary, stick to neutral colors to complement the looks of both upper and lower rooms.

Width of Runner Matches Stairs

There is a wide variety of different sizes and widths of stair carpet runners. If your stairs are 32 inches across, for example, then you have two options. You can choose a runner that is half that width and sits in the center, or one that is 28 to 30 inches wide. The latter type will cover most of the stairs.

Thickness and Padding

The rise and run of your stairs will also have a part to play in the runner you choose. Some stair carpet runners have padding underneath for a softer feel. The thicker this is, the smaller the rise of each step. If it is easier to keep the standard rise and run of your stairs, choose a runner with little backing or padding.
