Troubleshooting
Runner slips or moves excessively
Ensure the stair surface is clean and dry. For smoother surfaces, consider using double-sided carpet tape or a non-slip rug underlay specifically designed for stairs.
Stains are difficult to remove
Blot spills immediately. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent diluted in water and gently clean the area with a cloth. Avoid scrubbing vigorously.
Appearance looks flattened in high-traffic areas
Vacuum regularly to lift the pile. The loop-pile construction is designed for resilience, but extreme, concentrated wear might require occasional attention to restore the pile's loft.
Edges are fraying slightly
This is uncommon with professionally finished runners. If minor fraying occurs, it might be due to snagging. Trim any loose threads carefully with scissors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This runner is professionally finished to your chosen size. Before installation, ensure the stairs are clean and dry. Lay the runner in the desired position. The gel latex backing is designed to grip most surfaces. For added security, especially on very smooth or angled stairs, consider using double-sided carpet tape or a suitable adhesive along the edges or underside, though this is often not necessary. Ensure the runner lies flat without any kinks.
Compatibility: The gel latex backing is compatible with most hard stair surfaces, including wood, laminate, and painted steps. It may not adhere effectively to carpeted stairs or very uneven/porous surfaces without additional fixation methods.
Care: Maintain the runner's appearance with regular vacuuming. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fibers. Due to its stain-resistant polyamide, most common household stains should lift easily. For deeper cleaning, a professional carpet cleaning service is recommended, using methods suitable for synthetic loop-pile carpets.
