Start by Measuring Your Space Before selecting a mat, note these key measurements: Floor Area Measure the length and width of the open floor space you want to cover. Your mat should complement—not overpower—the room. Furniture Placement Ask yourself: Will the mat go under a bed or sofa? Should it sit in front of a door or sink? Do you want full coverage or an accent area? General Paladin Mat Size Guide Use this quick reference: Room Type Recommended Size Large rooms / Deck areas custom large sizes 2. Match the Mat Size to Room Type Bedroom For small bedrooms: use narrow side-runner mats. For king/queen beds: choose larger coverage to create symmetry. Kitchen Choose a mat that covers the standing area—front of the stove, sink, or island. Medium sized anti-fatigue mats in 45*29 are perfect here. Entryway Pick a size slightly larger than the door width usually 45*29. This keeps the space tidy and visually anchored. Outdoor Deck or Patio For wide open areas, go big! Paladin’s waterproof outdoor mats in 31 x 19.5 or 45 by 29, or custom sizes work best. 3. How to Choose the Right Color for Your Space Color affects mood, cleanliness, and overall style.
