Can these tiles be left outside year round? Will they hold up to rain and snow?
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles were designed to be used indoors only.
Was this helpful?Can you drive and park on these with your vehicle? We would be putting them in the garage and we'd rather not take it apart constantly. Thanks.
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles are a hard plastic polypropylene tile able to handle the weight of a car.
Was this helpful?Can these HotShot Hockey Floor tiles be used for roller skating with regular indoor roller skates or would they be too slippery?
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles were actually made to be used with regular indoor roller skates or rollerblades. These tiles would not be too slippery for either.
Was this helpful?I bought the hockey tiles. Do you suggest using a rubber hammer to lock the tiles together?
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles do not need a rubber hammer to interlock them. Just simply step on the tiles at the locking mechanism and they will lock together. You can use a rubber hammer if you like, but it is not necessary and a lot more fun to stomp on the floor.
Was this helpful?What type of finish do these tiles have? Are they shiny or matte?
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles have a semi-matte finish.
Was this helpful?Can I use a regular ice hockey puck on this, would it slide well?
You can use a regular ice hockey puck on our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles. It will not slide as well as it does on ice, but it does slide very well for inline hockey play.
Was this helpful?Can you use this product for a probable roller rink?
You can use our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles as a roller rink floor.
Was this helpful?Do you have to use a polish on the tiles every so often? If so what kind, and how often?
You don't have to use polish on our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles.
Was this helpful?Can you put these on top of any surface or just concrete?
Our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles can be installed over any hard, flat surface. Examples would be concrete, asphalt, wood subfloors, and the like.
Was this helpful?Can I use my regular goalie gear on these tiles?
You can use your regular goalie gear on our HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles. The only thing we do not recommend are ice skates.
Was this helpful?Can these be assembled and disassembled?
Yes, our Hotshot Hocket Floor Tiles can be installed and then disassembled. They are connected through an interlock.
Was this helpful?Can this withstand heat? My garage gets really hot during summer.
As long as there is a gap around the parameter, these tiles should not expand or contract in a hot environment. These tiles can also withstand a weight of a car on them.
Was this helpful?Since they only offer one color tile, any recommendations for a blue crease around the net?
We do not have any official paint for these tiles for the goal crease. We would suggest testing your own paint and tape products for something that will hold up to the 'hack-and-whack' of the goal crease without making it harder for the goalie to move around.
Was this helpful?Can these be used on top of apartment style carpeting? (I'm not sure if it's low pile or not? I doubt it. Though)
Yes, but we recommend installing these over hard surfaces. They would be better off if it's a low pile carpet, since these tiles may not fit well on a high pile carpet as they're more squishy/fluffy.
Was this helpful?Can you skateboard on these tiles?
Yes, you may use a skateboard on these tiles.
Was this helpful?I'm looking to build a 40ft by 60ft outdoor hockey rink that you can roller blade and shoot hockey pucks on. What product would you suggest and what would be the price?
You may use our Outdoor Sports Tiles for this purpose. Please use the flooring calculator on the product page to calculate pricing.
Was this helpful?Hello, Our son needs some outdoor tiles for use in shooting on his hockey net. Given that your HotShot Hockey Floor Tiles are only for indoor use, what would you recommend? Thanks! Chris
Our Outdoor Sports Tiles are used for roller hockey, we recommend getting a sample to see if these tiles would work for him.
Was this helpful?I am considering creating a blue line when I set these up in the garage. I don’t want it to scratch off though so instead of applying to the top, I was thinking of painting the back. Would blue spray paint applied to the underside appear similar to a blue line under ice?
The tiles are pretty opaque so they may not be truly visible, however, we recommend you getting a sample and trying it out to be sure.
Was this helpful?Can they be used as sub flooring over carpet for dance? Like ballet or jazz?
Yes, these tiles may be used as a subfloor over the carpet, as long as the carpet is low pile since high pile carpets can feel squishy underneath and the tiles may not stay properly interlocked.
Was this helpful?I am looking to build a rink to use 12 months a year. Do you have tiles kids can rollerblade and play ball hockey on. Then do you know if I can lay ice on top of it. There would be a liner over the tiles just want to know if it can be done if they can stay out in the winter
Hotshot Hockey Floor Tiles can be used for regular rollerblading and ball hockey, these have been designed for use as a hockey floor. We wouldn't recommend using these tiles outside since these are designed for indoor use only.
