Spring is on its way, and the February sun reminds us of it every day. As the light increases, outdoor spaces start to call. A new terrace mat or balcony mat is one of the quickest ways to update your space for spring. A high-quality mat for the terrace or balcony mat for the balcony immediately makes the space more inviting – and installing the Dry Step™ thermal mat is so easy that you can do it together with a friend in a spirit of teamwork.
Preparation: a clean surface ensures a good result
Before placing the new terrace mat or balcony mat, it’s worth cleaning the floor thoroughly. Remove loose debris and dust from the area to be matted. When the surface is clean, lay out the thermal mat preliminarily and make sure the patterns on the bottom of the mat rolls are aligned. This is important so that the mat for the terrace or balcony looks even and polished.
Cutting: measure, mark, and cut carefully
The thermal mat is easy to cut to your own measurements, making it an excellent choice for both terraces and balconies. Cut any notches and spaces for posts using a utility knife or sharp scissors. If the cut is long or requires special precision, use a straight board as a guide. This way, you’ll achieve a neat and professional finish.
Placement: direction matters
Once the pieces are cut, place the mat rolls on the floor so that the patterns on the bottom face the same direction. This step ensures that the terrace mat or balcony mat looks uniform and stylish. The thermal mat usually stays well in place without additional fastening.
Make installation a friendly moment
Because installing the thermal mat is really easy and quick, you can make it a fun joint project. Call a friend and ask if they’re free for a little mat installation get-together. The installation goes quickly, leaving time to enjoy each other’s company and the spring atmosphere on your newly updated terrace or balcony.
