After finishing the chrome leather desk for my husband s office i realized that his rolling office chair was not the best thing for our new carpet.
Diy chair mat for hardwood floor.
These mats are often made of polycarbonate and will have a much better non slip backing than the cheaper mats.
Anything in the range of 40 to 70 is the medium price range.
This was filmed with an iphone 7 plus and edited with filmora.
Inexpensive chair mats for hardwood floors generally cost less than 35.
I needed a fairly large one at least 4 x 4 and i was shocked at the prices of even the cheap plastic mats.
These no frills mats are usually made from vinyl or pvc.
The pieces of flooring needed to be mounted onto a heavy flat base.
A single layer of vinyl is likely not thick enough to use as a chair mat unless the floor is wood or another hard surface.
So i went to look for a basic chair mat.
Particle board has a lot going for it in this application.
Even short utility grade carpeting will let the chair legs or wheels.
The base material i chose was 3 4 particle board.
