What Are Your Bespoke Door Mats Made From?
Our made-to-measure mats are made from a high-quality coir material. Coir is made from coconut husks that have been woven together, making it incredibly durable and hard-wearing. It's also great at trapping dirt, moisture and debris, so your entrance stays looking clean and tidy.
We understand the importance of having a doormat that fits your entrance exactly. After all, if your mat isn't as wide as your door, there's a high chance it's not as effective as it could be. To account for this, all you have to do is let us know the exact dimensions, and we'll cut your matting to size. It'll be with you in no time!

Custom Door Mat FAQs:
We've done our best to try and answer some of the most common questions about custom door mats below:
How Do You Make A Custom Doormat?
To make your own doormat, you can purchase a coir mat and a stencil. From here, you can apply paint to the coir matting in the shape you desire. However, it is important to note that commercial types of paint are often water soluble and can smudge when wet shoes make contact with them. To get the best-personalised doormat, we recommend purchasing one from a professional company. This ensures that your doormat will be of the highest quality and last for years. Made-to-measure door mats are also available, so you can have the perfect fit and design.
Is it Better to have a Doormat Inside or Outside?
Here at Make an Entrance, we'd recommend using two doormats. Use durable floor mats such as rubber for the outside, as these will scrape most of the dirt off before entering your home. In addition, they're also water-resistant, so they can withstand weather conditions. Then, place a water-absorbent matting such as coir inside your doorway, absorbing the excess moisture and giving your guest a warm welcome. Combined, this is the most effective combination.

do welcome mats go inside or outside? for more information.
What Material is Best for an Outdoor Doormat?
We would recommend a rubber doormat for the outside. This is because it is durable, water-resistant and lasts for years. If you choose a water-absorbent material, such as coir, it could get waterlogged and damaged more easily.
Should a Doormat be Wider than the Door?
A doormat needs to be at least as wide as your front door to be as effective as possible. If your entrance mats are a smaller width, likely, they won't capture the majority of dirt and moisture that comes through your door. We offer made-to-measure mats that are cut to the exact size you need, so you can find the perfect one for your house.
What Doormats last the Longest?
A high-quality doormat can last for years when maintained and cared for properly. Materials such as rubber and coir are durable and long-lasting, so they're great long-term investments. On top of this, they come in a huge range of sizes and textures so that you can choose the one to suit your home. Additionally, if you fancy adding a personal touch to your doormat, you can add your family name or house name. Synthetic mats are also a great option.
