Felt glides (scratch protection) favorably with doormat and adhesive tape

Who does not know the problem? You buy new furniture and realize that they might leave a mark on the expensive parquet or laminate floor (scratches, etc.)?

That's what happened to us when we moved into our new apartment, in the living room and dining area is 50 years old parquet. Unfortunately we had no finished felt gliders in the house and of course it was Sunday.

So I thought of it ... That's when I came up with the idea of ​​using a doormat bought from the Swedish furniture store.


So I cut out suitable pieces, provided them with double-sided adhesive tape and was able to attach my felt pieces to the furniture quickly.

The doormat cost just under 0.70 euros and the role Doppelseitges tape I had anyway at home.


The advantage with this mat is, you can cut the required sizes to size ... I had once bought such a set with 35 felt gliders in different sizes, but it was never the right size ...


The tip has now been adopted by many of my friends.
