What is a standard door mat size?

The correct door mat size is a common question. The typical welcome mat size starts at 18" x 30", a popular choice for single doors. But, here's a handy tip: most front doors measure about 36" wide, so consider a larger size for a balanced look.

Another popular big entryway mat size is the 24" x 60". This extra large front door mat size is great for double doors since those usually start at 60" wide.

How do you measure for a front door rug? Try this simple trick: grab a piece of chalk and sketch out each door mat size. This way, you can visualize how each size complements your home.

What color should a door mat be?

Follow this simple rule: choose solids and double weave mats in natural tones for a classic look. For an entryway style that pops from the street, choose vivid colors for your outdoor door mats.

From bright stripes to earthy, natural tones, Lobster Rope Doormats work beautifully with any home. Here are a some more few popular pairing tips that our customers love:

Create Contrast

If your front door is a dark charcoal or black, opt for a lighter-toned doormat, like the Sand/Light Tan Double Weave. On the other hand, a white door is the perfect backdrop for bold colors - a Navy, Teal, Silver makes a fun, friendly welcome.

Add Drama 

Light-colored doors can create a show-stopping entrance when paired with deeper rope mat colors, such as solid navy or black.

Go monochromatic

For a cohesive look, choose an entrance mat with a color that matches your front door. For example, a navy door goes well with a Navy & Sand Double Weave doormat for that warm, inviting touch.
