Description
WaterGuard Two End Round Mats feature dramatic dual semicircle ends connected by a rectangular center, creating the most impressive entrance aesthetic available. This grand design combines elegant appearance with aggressive dirt and moisture removal, making it ideal for luxury hotels, executive lobbies, high-end retail, and upscale properties where first impressions matter.
Both rounded ends guide traffic naturally while maintaining full scraping coverage. The raised pattern traps dirt and moisture beneath shoe level across the entire mat, while the continuous water dam border holds up to 1.5 gallons per square yard. Anti-static polypropylene fabric ensures quick drying and won’t fade or rot, making these mats suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Rubber-reinforced construction prevents crushing in heavy traffic and extends product life significantly.
Available with traditional rubber borders or matching fashion fabric borders for a refined aesthetic. Choose smooth rubber backing for hard floors or gripper backing for carpet installations.

Maintenance Tips
Proper care ensures WaterGuard Two End Round Mats maintain grand entrance appearance and performance.
Daily Maintenance
Vacuuming
Vacuum WaterGuard Two End Round Mats daily in commercial installations using commercial vacuum with beater bar or strong suction. Pay special attention to both rounded ends where traffic enters and exits.
The high-low surface pattern releases dirt easily during vacuuming throughout the entire length. Vacuum against the pattern direction for maximum dirt removal from both ovals and center section.
Traffic Pattern Inspection
Inspect both rounded ends daily as these high-traffic zones require close monitoring. The grand design naturally distributes wear across the extended length, but entry and exit points need attention.
Check the water dam border at both ovals and along all straight edges to ensure continuous moisture containment.
Weekly Cleaning
Extraction Cleaning
Extract WaterGuard Two End Round Mats weekly in high-traffic lobby installations. The extraction process removes embedded dirt from deep within the fibers across the entire extended length.
Use standard commercial carpet extraction equipment. Both rounded ends and the rectangular center extract identically—no special techniques required for the curved portions.
Hose-Off Method
Hose off outdoor or covered outdoor WaterGuard Two End Round Mats weekly or as needed. The dual oval design makes hosing efficient—water flows naturally toward all edges.
Use moderate water pressure to flush debris from the high-low pattern throughout the length. The water dam border channels water for efficient drainage from both ends simultaneously.
Monthly Deep Cleaning
Comprehensive Cleaning
Remove mat monthly for thorough hose-off or pressure washing. The extended length requires adequate space for cleaning and drying.
Hang to dry completely before returning to service. The polypropylene construction dries relatively quickly, typically 6-10 hours depending on weather conditions, air circulation, and mat length.
Seasonal Considerations
Winter Performance
During de-icing season, the water dam border prevents salt accumulation on surrounding floors at both entrance and exit points. The polypropylene resists salt damage throughout the length.
Hose off weekly during heavy salt use to prevent crystallization in the mat fibers. Both rounded ends may accumulate more salt due to traffic concentration—inspect carefully.
Spring Renewal
After winter, conduct comprehensive pressure washing to remove accumulated salt and seasonal debris from the extended length. The dual rounded ends may accumulate dirt differently than the rectangular center—inspect all sections thoroughly.
Summer/Fall Maintenance
Monitor the mat for wear patterns, particularly at high-traffic points along both rounded ends. The fade-resistant construction maintains color despite summer sun exposure in covered outdoor installations.
Rotate mat 180 degrees quarterly to equalize wear across both rounded ends and the center section. The extended length makes this easier with two people.
Cleaning Products
Recommended:
- Clear water for routine cleaning
- Neutral pH carpet cleaner for deep cleaning
- Commercial extraction cleaning solutions
- Standard commercial cleaning equipment
Avoid:
- Harsh chemicals (not needed for polypropylene)
- Bleach (can damage rubber backing)
- Abrasive scrubbing on fashion borders
- Oil-based cleaners
Inspection Schedule
Inspect WaterGuard Two End Round Mats monthly for:
- Surface wear patterns across both ovals and center
- Water dam border integrity (particularly both rounded sections)
- Backing adhesion to floor surface throughout length
- Overall appearance and cleanliness across entire mat
- Fashion border condition if applicable (both ends and sides)
Expect 5-7 years service life in moderate to heavy commercial lobby traffic with proper maintenance. The extended length and dual rounded ends typically show balanced wear due to natural traffic distribution patterns.

Size Notes: The “length” measurement includes both half-oval ends plus the rectangular center section. Both rounded ends add visual presence and functional length.
Longer configurations provide more dramatic grand entrance appearance. Common lobby installations: 15′-25′ total length.
Mat sizes are approximate as rubber shrinks and expands with temperature and time. Tolerable manufacturing variance ±3%.
Border Options
Rubber Border (Standard): Traditional heavy-duty black rubber beveled border. Durable appearance, extremely tough for high-traffic lobbies.
Fashion Fabric Border: Matching color border using surface material extended to mat edge. Refined, upscale appearance perfect for luxury lobbies. Same water dam functionality.
Both options feature identical beveled edge safety design around entire perimeter including both rounded ends.
Backing Options
Smooth Backing: For hard floor surfaces (tile, marble, concrete, vinyl, wood, LVT). Maximum surface-to-surface contact. Most common for lobby installations.
Gripper Backing: For carpet surfaces. Hundreds of rubber nubs grab carpet fibers to prevent mat movement during heavy traffic flow.
Color Options
Available in standard WaterGuard colors. Contact Universal Floor Mats for current color availability and samples.
Solution-dyed colors maintain vibrancy without fading throughout indoor and outdoor service life.
Weight Specifications
Weights vary by total length due to dual rounded end configuration. Extended lengths create substantial mat weight.
