“Use The Insider's bold colors and patterns to add visual interest to an otherwise neutral space.”

FAQ

With an incredibly minimal pile height, The Insider line can fit under most doors easily. But it never hurts to check! The height (or thickness) is 1/8''. We recommend a door clearance of 1/4”.

Yes, but the Insider is designed for direct contact with hard flooring surfaces and this is not our recommended use.

Our preferred method is to shake out the mat. If vacuuming, be sure to adjust settings so the rotating brushes are on higher setting to prevent fiber damage or fraying from the beater bar.

Our preferred method: Rinse or hose down with cold water to remove dirt and stains—a little extra pressure goes a long way. Hang to dry completely.

For tougher stains, we’ve found that OxiClean™️ works best. Apply a small amount with a damp microfiber cloth, gently rub it into the stain, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, then rinse and hang to dry.

Whatever you do, don’t put it in the washing machine—even on delicate. Spin cycles can damage the mat’s structure and cause the slip-resistant backing to separate from the top layer.

Yes! We recommend giving your floor a quick wipe down before placing your new mat. Removing dust and debris allows the slip-resistant backing to do its job and helps keep your mat securely in place.

Hang it to air dry after hosting it off, the Insider dries quickly. Once dry, bring it indoors and lay flat. Avoid leaving it hanging over a railing or in direct sunlight for long periods, as heat can cause kinking.

Yes! The Insider’s 100% polyester woven face fabric is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, meaning it’s been tested for more than 400 harmful substances. A little peace of mind with every step. The certification applies to the face fabric only.

Thin, durable, non slip, perfect for elderly dogs

Needed mays in my hall to keep my senior dog from slipping on the hardwoods, but also needed them to be thin enough to open closet doors. These are perfect. I got both an xl and regular in champagne. They brighten the hall and do exactly what I need them to. No off gassing and very comfortable.

Thanks so much for your kind words and for choosing Porte + Hall!

Low profile and beautiful

Purchased two inside runners for our kitchen and love how they lay flat (although still waiting for the very ends to flatten out) and stay put! Hoping that cleaning them off outside will not be too much of a challenge. They are fairly new, so haven’t had to do that yet. So far, we are very pleased with our purchase, so is our dog! Will likely purchase additional mats from Porte+Hall when our others need replacing.

Guys, ignore the one star ratings: it’s supposed to be thin! It’s for inside a door that opens inwards. That’s why it’s called “the insider”. I got a lighter colored one. I don’t have dogs or kids, so that works for me. You might wish to get a darker colored one if you do. It’s not completely nonskid, it’s not a yoga mat, but it’s not a flying carpet, either. It is exactly what I wanted/needed.

ROAR!

Each time my door is open and my neighbors are able to see my rug, I get so many compliments.

So Pretty

The perfect rug to welcome all into my home while keeping my wood floors clean. So thin yet so durable!

I was looking forward to loving this rug. I like the thinness, the colors are beautiful, size is perfect.
The only problem is, it moves. I find myself having to straighten it many times a day. The write up says it grips but it doesn’t.
I feel the rug is way too expensive to have this major problem.
My rug sits on nice wood floors in front of an interior door.

Hi there, thanks for taking a moment to share your thoughts with us! Sorry to hear if your Insider Mat is sliding. The mats work best on hard flooring surfaces, and we find that dust buildup may at times be the cause. With that in mind recommend hosing down the back of the mat and allowing it to dry completely as well as wiping down the area where the mat lies, and that should help the slip-resistant backing perform at its best. Please don't hesitate to reach out to our team with any further questions or concerns—we're here to help!

Love these but

I really do love these indoor rugs. I ordered the ripple indoor rug for my foyer. The biggest size they offer is 3x5. I could use double that. So I simply ordered two 3x5 rugs to lay them side by side as if it's one rug. Unfortunately the size of each rug is not exact. There is a 1-1/2 inch difference. One is shorter than the other. If only one of the sizes works for your space then you're fine. But in my case it really doesn't work that great. I'm keeping them anyway because I love the low profile and they really do stay down when I vacuum them. For that reason I will definitely be bordering two runners for my kitchen. I just wish they didn't have primarily contemporary looking patterns. I have a rustic country style kitchen that limits my options.

Entryway Upgrade

The quality is exceptional. It looks great while doing it's job in my busy, pet filled home. This was an investment that I hesitated to make without seeing in person, but I am glad I went through with.

Not worth $70

I understand this is marketed as a super low profile doormat. But it is also marketed as a high end low profile doormat and it is definitely not high end. In person, the edges show as if it were cut from a roll of linoleum, who cares if it is Made in Italy! It's not worth the money.

Hi Leah, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Our Insider line's low profile of just 1/8' and lack of bound edges is a part of its intended design so that it can clear even very tight door spaces and still look sleek and beautiful. That being said, we understand if it might not be for everyone, so please reach out if we can help with any other questions, concerns, or getting you started with a return. Our team is available at support@porteandhall.com. Thanks for giving us a try!

I love these mats! I put four of them in my house and I am going to order two more. They clean up so nicely and like flat. They have beautiful patterns and doors slide over them flawlessly. They are flush to the floor so they are not a trip hazard and have a gripping underneath so they don’t slide. These mats are expensive but well made and very nice aesthetically.

Pretty but so thin and crease won’t come out

It’s pretty and yes my door opens and shuts but for $165 for a 3x5 it should be softer and not crease. It’s been over 24 hrs and same gravity not doing a thing. How about when you ship these to customers, you rolled them the other way to avoid creases popping up instead of curling down where it would make sense especially for the well earned money spent. Like I said it’s pretty, but I probably won’t buy another one.

Hi Gabrielle, thanks for taking a moment to share your thoughts with us! The Insider has an intentionally ultra thin design with a thickness of just 1/8' to maintain an ultra low profile and easily clear doorways. Any creasing from the mat being packaged should settle with time and this can be helped along with gentle reverse rolling. However, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team at support@porteandhall.com for further product support or assistance as needed—we're here to help!

Just what I was looking for

I wanted a door mat that would be functional and not overwhelm my space. This was just what I was looking for. It’s beautiful and works well at my 12 foot slider door.

Hi Jennifer, thanks so much for sharing—we love to see how the Champagne Runner complements your space!

Hudsy the Lab Approved!

So far I am loving it! So chic! It is very thin, doesn’t stay in place perfectly, and I have not had to clean it yet. But, it’s cute and Hudson, my yellow lab, approves!

Just as described! 👍🏼

The smaller ones for the door are great. Love the color, thin, stays in place and easy to clean.

Hard to clean

This feels impossible to clean, it’s become more of an eyesore than an attraction in our kitchen. So disappointing

Hi Janet, sorry to hear if you're having trouble cleaning your mat! We recommend rinsing or hosing the mat down with cold water (the stronger the pressure, the better) and hanging to dry completely. If anything sticks around or you have a tougher stain, spot treat with OxiClean™️ or your favorite cleaner and a damp cloth, then rinse and hang dry. If you have any other questions on concerns we can help with, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@porteandhall.com.

Beautiful, thin and absorbent

I love this rug so much. I have bought three doormats and three runners so far. They are just perfect for adding protection without a trip hazard. I have a runner and two mats in a mudroom/pool bath area that are perfect for absorbing drippy grandkids. I have not washed them so far but plan too soon. The reason for four stars - they are showing a bit of wear and tear after a short period of time around the edges, probably where the vacuum brush grabs. But this could be avoided with proper vacuuming. Overall, a great product!

Inside Doormat

I moved to a new apartment where there is very little space between the bottom of my front door and the entry floor. You can literally hear the door sweep scraping the floor. However, this rug is so thin, it works! It's beautiful and feels great as well. Totally worth the money! Thank you:)

Perfect for front door

This rug is perfect for the front door. We live in a sandy area and that can be rough on hardwood floors. We wanted to have a rug at the front door right as you step in to catch the sand and not be sandpaper to our hardwood floors. Most rugs wouldn't allow the door to open, so we settled for many years to have a solid 4' of area without protection to have the door not get stuck on the rug. This rug was the perfect solution to our troubles. Very pleased with the size.
