Do the mats come in different sizes. Can they be cut?
PAM
Our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mats come in 4 sizes. If these sizes do not work for your application you can cut these mats with a sharp utility knife.
Is this waterproof for dog urine? Or does liquid go through the interlock sections?
Anonymous
The 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mats are water resistant but not waterproof. The tiles do interlock very tightly but if liquid is left at the seam of the tiles for a period of time, liquid can get through. These tiles are non-porous, so no liquids will get in the tiles making them great for doggy day cares and kennels.
How large are each of the individual mats that are fitted together? Can two 12' X 12' mats be joined together to be used for a 10' X 20' dog kennel/playground? Can the kennel frame be placed on top of the mat to avoid a tempting corner for avid chewers? Can I use the mats along with pet turf (on top of mats or side by side)?
With our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits, custom sizes can be made to cover the space you would like to cover without having to combine multiple mat kits together. To get a custom-sized kit, please reach out to one of our Flooring Heroes via chat, email, or phone. A kennel frame can be placed over our mats to keep the corners of the mat from being chewed on by pets. Any of our turf can be used in conjunction with our mat kits.
Is the diamond top dog kennel mats ok for outside. I live in Las Vegas and want to make a landing pad for my dog when she plays fetch.
Andrea Maloney
Our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits can be used outdoors. These tile kits are made of rubber which is mold and mildew resistant. These tiles are also non-porous, which means they are water resistant and will not allow for water or other liquids get in the floor. The only thing you will notice is that the flooring is not UV stable and will fade in direct sunlight.
I am looking for a mat to be used against our fence where my dog likes to sit a lot and he has worn the grass away so he gets muddy when it rains. However, I live in Southeast Texas so, it's very sunny and gets quite hot. I need a mat that won't get so hot and burn my dogs paws. Does your mat stay cool in the sun? Thank you.
Kay
Our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits are black and only come in black. This means they will get hot in direct sunlight. To keep them cool, we recommend spraying them with water every half hour to and hour during the hottest part of the day.
Are they chew proof?
Nothing is really chew-proof, but our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits are a very durable product and will be able to withstand a dog chewing on the floor a bit if they were to get a corner.
I am concerned with urine getting between the interlocking tiles. I am purchasing for my elderly dog who has frequent accidents, so I am wondering if you have another product that might be better, such as a rubberized roll-out floor instead of tiles? Also, does the product have a strong rubber odor? Thank you kindly.
Linda J Geer
Our 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits interlock very tightly, preventing urine from getting between and under the tiles. We do offer a number of rubber roll products, but depending on the size of the are, you may still end up with seams. If you are concerned about the seam, we would recommend adding some seam sealer glue to the seam to ensure there is no separation of the mat. These mats do have an odor to them that can be strong. You can mitigate some of the smell by mopping the floor with a mild soap and water solution, but there will still be a rubber smell to the mats.
I have 2 questions: I am covering a floor in an octagonal building, can I order custom kits? I would like to use this for a chicken coop, do you see any reason that this would not work or be a problem?
Meaghan Rader
You can order custom cut 1/2" Diamond Top Dog Kennel Mat Kits. You will just have to reach out to one of our Flooring Heroes via phone, chat, or email. These mats are not just good for dog kennels but have been used as flooring in horse stalls, chicken coops, and much more. These mats are non-porous and are very easy to clean and maintain.
I am considering this product for a doggy daycare/playroom. What products do you recommend for daily cleaning/disinfecting
Lynn Watkins
We recommend using Dawn dish detergent or a laundry detergent. Do not use any solvent or oil-style cleaners such as Lysol, Pine-Sol, WD40, Murphy’s Oil Soap, paint thinners, etc. since these types of cleaners will break down these mats over time.
