What’s in the box?
Rug Cover: You received a folded Rug Cover with your rug design on the top and a grey fabric backing.
Rug Pad: You received a rug pad made up of interlocking pieces, with ClingEffect™ technology on the top and a rubbery bottom that will grip the floor.
How to Assemble
Before you begin: For larger rugs, you will need two people for assembly, so grab a friend to help!
To maximise the performance of the non-slip Rug Pad, ensure the area you intend to lay your rug on is clean, dry, and free of any dirt or other debris.
Indoor-only rugs (Flatwoven, Tufted, Plush): Avoid laying the rug on flooring areas with high humidity (i.e. right next to a vent).
Outdoor/Indoor rugs (Outdoor): While your rug is water-resistant, avoid letting it sit wet for prolonged periods of time.
Step 1: Prep the Rug Cover
Set aside the Rug Pad pieces as you prepare the Rug Cover.
Lay out the Rug Cover with the grey fabric side touching the floor and the design side facing up.
Then, starting from the bottom edge, fold up the Rug Cover into thirds, doing your best to keep the folds even and the folded edge parallel to the top of the rug (see the video above).
Next, fold the Rug Cover in half twice along the width (see the video above).
Step 2: Lay out the Rug Pad
Unfold the first piece of the Rug Pad and place it where you want your rug, ensuring that the rubbery side is down.
Unfold the next piece and ensure the rubbery side is down, then attach it to the first piece of pad and smooth the connection points as you go.
Continue with all Rug Pad pieces until the pad is fully assembled and resembles the diagram below.
Step 3: Attach the Rug Cover to the Rug Pad
Attach the folded Rug Cover to the top corner of the Rug Pad, leaving about one inch of overhang on either side.
Unfold the Rug Cover along the top edge of the Rug Pad, maintaining an inch of overhang and making sure the Cover is aligned straight with the Pad.
Unfold the Rug Cover along the length of the Rug Pad.
Note: Do not tuck the Rug Pad into the corners of the Rug Cover. These corners were designed to weigh the rug down and ensure the Rug Cover lays flat on your floor.
Step 4: Smooth the Rug Cover
To smooth out wrinkles, roll up the Rug Cover diagonally from the corner and gently unroll. Any remaining bumps or creases should relax after a few days!
Voila—your Ruggable rug is ready for action!
A Few Reminders
1. Our Rug Cover is designed to be bigger than your Rug Pad. This is to make sure that the Rug Pad stays out of sight once assembled.
2. Do not tuck the Rug Pad into the silicone corners underneath the Rug Cover. These are designed to weigh down the corners of the Rug Cover so it lays flat on the floor.
3. If the corners appear lifted, simply pull the Rug Cover up, give a little tug, then smooth the Cover back down.
