Product Overview
Here’s a brilliant, no-fuss solution to a problem every business faces: dirt, dust, and water being trod through the door. This commercial-grade Fingertip Entrance Mat is designed to be the first line of defence for your floors. Its tough, flexible rubber 'fingertips' actively scrape muck from the bottom of shoes, trapping it within the mat itself, so your reception or dining area stays looking its best, whatever the great British weather is doing outside.
Perfect for any establishment with a steady stream of customers, from bustling restaurants and cafés to village pubs and retail shops. The medium size is a versatile fit for most standard single doorways, offering excellent coverage without being obtrusive. With its smart black finish and robust build, this fingertip entrance mat medium not only performs brilliantly but also adds a professional touch to your entrance, welcoming guests while keeping things safe and clean.
Ultimately, it’s a small investment that pays you back every single day. It protects your expensive interior flooring from wear and tear, reduces your team's cleaning workload, and, most importantly, minimises the risk of slips and trips with its anti-slip base and clever bevelled edges. It's the simple, effective welcome your business deserves.

Daniel Foster – Maintenance View Profile →
- Rock Solid Grip: The anti-slip base genuinely works, it doesn't budge on tiles.
- A Bit of Heft: At 4kg, it's reassuringly heavy but requires a firm hand to lift.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle, a popular tearoom in York, was struggling with a constantly damp and dirty entrance, especially on rainy days. They needed a robust matting solution that could handle the tourist footfall and protect their beautiful original floorboards.
"We were mopping the entrance five or six times a day, and it was still a slipping concern. Since putting down this fingertip mat, the floor stays dry, it looks professional, and we've had no close calls. It’s been a simple but incredibly effective fix for us."
Robert Mills – Proprietor
The tearoom reported a 70% reduction in time spent cleaning the entrance area, allowing staff to focus on customers.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the mat and allow it to sit flat for a few hours to settle, especially in colder weather.
- Ensure the floor area is clean and dry before placing the mat down.
- Position the mat so it lies completely flat, with the bevelled edges flush to the floor to prevent trips.
- Check that it doesn't obstruct the opening and closing of your door.
Keeping It Going
- For daily cleaning, simply lift the mat and sweep or vacuum the debris underneath.
- Give the mat a good shake outside to dislodge trapped dirt and dust.
- For a deeper clean, hose it down with water and let it air dry completely before putting it back.
- Periodically inspect the edges and underside to ensure it remains in good, safe condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this mat be used outdoors?
A: Yes, its durable rubber construction is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, making it perfect for placing directly outside your entrance.
Q: Is the mat heavy? Will it blow away?
A: It weighs 4kg, which is substantial enough to keep it firmly in place during normal weather and heavy foot traffic. It won't easily blow away.
Q: How do you clean a commercial fingertip door mat?
A: It's very simple. You can shake it vigorously to remove loose dirt, sweep it, or for a thorough clean, hose it down with water and let it dry.
Q: What does 'bevelled edge' mean?
A: It means the edges of the mat slope down to the floor, creating a smooth transition that significantly reduces the risk of trips.
Q: Will the rubber mark or stain my tiled floor?
A: This mat is made from high-quality, non-staining rubber, so it shouldn't mark clean, sealed floor surfaces.
Q: Is this medium size entrance mat suitable for a standard commercial door?
A: Yes, the 800x1000mm size offers excellent coverage for most standard single-width commercial doorways.
Q: Does the rubber have a strong smell?
A: Like most new rubber products, there might be a slight odour initially, but this typically fades very quickly, especially when used outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
Q: Can I cut the mat to a custom size?
A: We don't recommend cutting the mat, as this would remove the moulded bevelled safety edge and could compromise its structure.
The Coba Commitment: A Foundation of Safety
When you choose a Coba product like this F298 entrance mat, you're investing in more than just a piece of rubber; you're investing in peace of mind. Coba has built its reputation on creating straightforward, highly effective workplace safety solutions that stand the test of time. This mat isn't just about stopping dirt; it's a proactive tool for risk management. Every bevelled edge, every non-slip stud on the base, and every flexible fingertip is designed to prevent the slips and trips that can be so costly and disruptive for a business. It's a small, upfront cost that works tirelessly to protect your staff, your customers, and your bottom line by reducing cleaning labour and preserving the life of your interior floors. That's the real-world value of a brand that puts safety and durability first.
Explore more from CobaWhy 'Bevelled Edges' Are a Big Deal for Safety
You'll often see 'bevelled edges' mentioned on quality mats, but what does it actually mean for your business? Think of it as a tiny, built-in ramp. Instead of a sharp, 90-degree edge that you can easily catch your toe on or trip a trolley over, a bevelled edge slopes down gently to meet the floor. It creates a smooth, seamless transition from the floor to the mat surface.
This simple design choice makes a huge difference in busy environments. It dramatically reduces the risk of someone tripping as they walk in, especially if they're rushing, carrying things, or not looking down. For wheelchair users or staff moving wheeled carts, it means a smooth roll-on, roll-off experience. It's a small detail that shows a big commitment to safety.
