Cushioned Rug Pads - Natural Lock

Details

Natural-Lock rug pads combine an eco-friendly felt surface with a natural rubber non-slip backing. The grooved natural rubber lower surface will keep your rug anchored to the floor while a ¼” felt surface layer will aide in softening and cushioning your area rugs.

Natural lock is a premium rug pad, made with a natural rubber backing, not synthetic latex. Aside from its eco-friendly benefits, natural rubber will last longer and grip better than sprayed on synthetic alternatives. It’s also manufactured to avoid common problems associated with lesser quality pads, such as flaking & floor staining.

Combining Comfort and Grip – Natural Lock combine a textured felt upper surface with a non-slip natural rubber backing. The grooved tire tread natural rubber backing will grab floors while the felt surface will adhere to your rugs, offering both non-slip grip & cushioned support.

Enhanced Durability - Natural lock offers lasting durability over Similar styled Felt & Rubber rug pads. While the majority of felt and rubber rug pads use a sprayed on synthetic latex, our rubber is made in sheets then heat pressed to the felt backing. This helps avoid chalking and dusting issues that can occur after prolonged use.

Breathable: Natural Lock is needlepunched to enhance breathability and allow oxygen to reach floors.

Odorless: Natural Lock is free of harmful odors.

Soundproofing and acoustical benefits: Natural Lock is approximately .3 Inches thick which offers excellent sound dampening and acoustical benefits over traditional non-slip pads.

Made in the USA – All our rug pads, including Natural Lock, are made in the USA.

Natural-Lock Rug Pads – Frequently Asked Questions

Are your Natural-Lock Rug Pads Safe for Hardwood Floors?

Since our Natural-Lock rug pads are made with natural rubber they are 100% safe for all floors if used in accordance with your flooring manufacturers and if proper curing times are met.

Approximately how thick are your Natural-Lock rug pads?

They are approximately ¼” thick – thick enough to provide ample cushioning yet thin enough to prevent tripping.

When Should I use a cushioned rug pad vs. a thinner pad?

A cushioned rug pad will help to support your area rug while making it more comfortable to walk on, while a non-slip pad will only offer grip. Hence it’s entirely consumer preference if they want a cushioned rug pad vs. a non-slip one. Most customers buy a cushioned rug pad for larger area rugs and use a non-slip pad for runners and smaller area rugs.

What is the difference between felt and wool?

Felt encompasses a number of different materials including yarn, wool, carpet, and other recycled fibers from carpeting. Wool rug pads are made with only 100% natural wool shorn. Both are eco-friendly, since felt uses recycled materials that are then tested for VOC levels and other air pollutants. Wool however is a bit more eco-friendly because it’s biodegradable, yet is more expensive to produce.

Can your natural-lock pads be trimmed easily with scissors?

Yes, however you will need some thicker scissors, hence why we offer only custom cut sizes.

Too Thick Review by Terri

Quality
Price

Really high quality heavy duty felt rubber. I was however not able to use the pads on my area rug because it was much thicker than my expectations, transforming the rug into a speed bump. You may also be required to trim the pads into 4by6 rug, which is not a very pleasant exercise for me. (Posted on 5/13/2014)

excellent value and comfort Review by Paula T, FL

I bought only one very large rug and cut it into three pieces to fit into my 3 kitchen rugs. These are braided rugs and they do not budge at all. These rugs are best for people who spend several hours in the kitchen like me; they make your feet and legs easier while in the kitchen. (Posted on 4/29/2014)

Great for my rug on carpet! Review by Marcy

specifically bought this rug pad to protect my area rug from wrinkling/ bunching on top of the carpet. Additionally, I chose this rug to prevent the area rug from continuously shifting. I am not regretting at all, am happy to say that the rug is doing a perfect job. It is no longer necessary to bend over 50 x’s and more to have the area rug straightened. Am pretty sure that the life of my area rug will be prolonged. GREAT BUY for the listed price, keep the good job up.

Great pads! Review by Jeff R

I and my wife installed a brand new hardboard floor in our just recently remodeled house. My wife is particularly keen on how we look forward to keep the beautiful and new floors from damage. When we decided to purchase three new area rugs for the three rooms in the house, we took quite a lot of time doing research to find the right carpet pad-one that is not very light, not very thick, not too odoriferous and not fragile. After visiting most of the local stores and doing our research, we decided to go for a Duo-lock, non-slip floor pads that come in various sizes including the one am doing the review about here. We used scissors to trim the pad according to our needs. According to our judgment, the pad quality is suitable for our purpose and comes at a good price. (Posted on 4/19/2014)

This pad replacement was the right one. It’s much thicker than what I had before but not too high so you trip on it. The rug does not move so there’s no more sliding around. My room looks different already. (Posted on 12/22/2013)
