THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE

Stop Dirt Before It Enters Your Building

Scraper mats are the first zone in the 3-zone entrance matting system. Positioned outside your building entrance or just inside the door, their job is to aggressively remove heavy soil, mud, gravel, and debris from shoe bottoms before visitors go any further.

The bi-level surface design is key: raised rubber cleats or turf-pile fibers scrape shoes clean, while recessed channels trap debris below foot level so it can't be tracked back out. These mats are built for the harshest outdoor conditions — UV resistant, weather-proof, and heavy enough to stay in place through wind, rain, and snow.

Zone 1 scraper mats handle the heaviest lifting in your entrance system. Without them, all that debris moves directly to Zone 2 and 3 mats, overwhelming their capacity and shortening their lifespan.

Where to Place Scraper Mats

Primary Placements

Directly outside exterior doors
Covered entrance areas (porte-cochere)
Just inside vestibule doors
Building main entrance

Often Overlooked

Parking garage pedestrian doors
Loading dock entrances
Side and back entrances
Rooftop access doors
Pool and fitness center entrances

For maximum effectiveness, allow 3-5 feet of scraper coverage — enough for visitors to take 2-3 full steps on the mat.

What to Look for in a Scraper Mat

Aggressive scraping surface

Raised cleats or turf-pile fibers physically remove soil from shoe bottoms. Look for bi-level or multi-directional patterns that scrape from every angle.

All-weather durability

Zone 1 mats live outdoors. UV resistance prevents cracking and fading. Nitrile or SBR rubber handles extreme temperatures.

Drainage capability

Rainwater needs somewhere to go. Drainable borders or open-construction designs prevent puddles and keep the scraping surface effective.

Heavy-duty construction

Outdoor mats take abuse — foot traffic, weather, maintenance equipment rolling over them. Heavy rubber construction resists curling and stays flat.

For maximum effectiveness, allow 3-5 feet of scraper coverage — enough for visitors to take 2-3 full steps on the mat.
