Practice Dance Tile Kits are easy to install. Installation of these interlocking dance floor tiles typically includes:
Surface Prep: You must clean your subfloor so that it is free of all dirt, dust, grease, or other foreign material before beginning installation.
We will start at the top left corner of your designated dance area. Put a tile down with the male edges (no loop) facing towards the top and left direction. Make sure the female sides (loops) of the tile are facing the bottom and right direction.
Attach your second tile to the right side of the first tile, lowering and interlocking it into each loop.
Repeat step #2 until you have completed one full side of your dance floor.
Once you’ve secured your last tile into place in the first row, you’ll begin a second row beneath the very first tile you started with. Interlock the top of your second-row tile with the bottom of your first-row tile. Follow step #2.
Follow the same process to fill in all of your rows of tiles to create your full dance floor size.
Once the tiles are in place, you can snap in the edge pieces, if you purchased them. Start with the male edges. Lay them out to be sure you have enough before clicking them into place as shown in the step #6 diagram.
As you did with the male edges, lay out all-female edges to make sure you have enough. Once you are ready you can click the female edges into place to complete your floor.
**For wall-to-wall installations: When you come up to a wall or object, don’t worry. Simply measure the area and cut the tiles with a tile cutter or a power saw with a fine-toothed blade. Interlock the trimmed tiles into place. When trimming the tiles into place, make sure you leave about a 3/4” space between the tiles and the wall or obstruction. Once the tiles are in place, you can then snap in the edge pieces if you purchased them.
Please note: Since these dance tiles feature a vinyl top adhered to the tile with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, pressure may be needed to ensure that the vinyl top fully adheres. You can easily accomplish this by walking across the floor or by using a flooring roller for larger areas.
Practice Dance Tile Kits interlocking tiles are very easy to maintain. Cleaning of these multi-use floor tiles typically includes:
Vacuuming or sweeping any loose crumbs, dust, or debris from the Practice Dance Tiles when necessary.
Damp-mop the floor tiles with a mild soap and water mixture for tough or caked-on dirt and/or stains.
We have had several customers install these tiles over carpet. We would recommend use with carpet that is dense and low pile, since a fluffier high pile carpet may bring the tiles to have movement issues if it cannot lay flat. Another idea would be to...
The tiles is constructed of hard plastic and has several 'feet' which supports the base of the tile. You'll definitely want to put something in between dance tiles and hardwood floor so that the tiles don't damage your floor and so that they don't slide...
