Each of our Floor Protectors are quick and easy to install; they can be used on a short or long term basis and are cost-effective upon replacement.

As well as Adhesive Floor Protectors, we also stock a range of other fastener styles such as: Screw On Glides, Nail On Feet & Glides, Saddle Glides, Insert Glides and Threaded Glides.

Aesthetic & Hygienic benefits of using Floor Protectors

Within the past few years, there has been a huge shift in the way that the people view their homes. Decor is ever-changing, increasingly aesthetic and becoming less functional with statement furnishings not always being easily manoeuvrable.

As well as Protective Floor accessories preserving hard flooring from scratches and scuffs, they also prevent indentations forming on carpets and rugs from heavy furniture; allowing you to change the configuration of your furniture without worrying about eyesores.

For families and pet owners, the ability to easily access and thoroughly clean hard to reach areas is extremely important to prevent the build up of pet hair and dust, retrieve toys and look for missing items.
