Lobster Rope Doormat Material
Are all Lobster Rope Doormats created the same?
Many factors affect the quality of a Lobster Rope Doormat - from rope construction and width, the quality of weaving equipment, weaver skill level, UV additives, and many more.
To be certain you are getting the best quality lobster rope doormat, always choose Wicked Good Doormats. We are the Original Lobster Rope Doormat since 2009 and America’s #1 rope mat.
Our nautical rope doormats are made with an extremely durable polysteel mix - a blend of polypropylene and polyethylene which produces rope much stronger than polypropylene fishing rope. Plus, only our heavy duty outdoor mats have extra UV protection to protect their vibrant colors and prevent rapid fading.
Our weaving equipment uses top quality materials for a firm weave, and we work carefully with all of our weavers to ensure they receive top-notch training.
Lastly, every Wicked Good Doormat goes through a Proprietary 5 Point Quality Check that inspects rope quality, rope color, weaving firmness, construction, and craftsmanship of each and every doormat. We pay close attention to quality, that’s why our customers trust they are getting a #1 quality-inspected doormat every time.
Are Wicked Good Outdoor Mats able to be used in uncovered areas?
Our Lobster Rope Doormats are made for wet areas! These are outdoor door mats that dry quickly so bring on the rain.
Fast-drying Wicked Good rope resists mildew and mold that otherwise would be tracked into your home.
Why is it important to use a front door mat specifically designed for the outdoors?
Doormats outdoors get wet all of the time. If their material is not weatherproof they will break down, or rot, quickly in the elements.
Wicked Good Lobster Rope Doormats are fast-drying and last for years, no matter how wet they get. Say goodbye to soggy doormats.
Do Wicked Good Lobster Rope Doormats take on odors?
While some outdoor doormats will take on odors, Wicked Good Doormats do not. You always have a fresh and cheery welcome waiting for you when you come home.
Lobster Rope Doormats Quality
How long do Wicked Good Lobster Rope Doormats last?
Our lobster rope doormats last for years - guaranteed. Plus, we have a 3 year warranty against manufacturer's defects.
Just look at our reviews - our customers have been using their Wicked Good Doormats for years and years - these outdoor mats just last that long.
Where are Wicked Good Lobster Rope Doormats made?
We weave each of our Lobster Rope Doormats right here in Maine using the toughest fishing rope around. We engineer our own rope to ensure it meets our quality standards.
Every doormat is inspected for quality and your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed.
How do Wicked Good Doormats compare to other front door mats like rubber or coir?
Coir mats are more suitable for indoor use. Most shed from the start, but the shedding can get much worse when these are used as doormats outdoors and are exposed to weather.
Natural fiber mats will rot when exposed to water. It only takes 24 hours for mold to grow on the surface.
Rubber mats hold up to wet weather, but they can crack easily in cold weather and get extra hot in the sun.
All-season Wicked Good Doormats are designed to be used all year round - while keeping their shape and color - all summer, fall, winter and spring.
Because our weatherproof nautical rope doormats last for years they outlive many of the natural fiber, coir and other doormats that break down and shed with increased exposure to the elements. Investing in a quality heavy duty outdoor door mat reduces waste and saves you money over time. Plus, because they are woven in the US they provide jobs and income to Americans.
Can I use my Wicked Good Lobster Rope Doormat year-round?
Of course! They are engineered to hold up to all 4 seasons.
What is the difference between Wicked Good Doormats and Recycled Lobster Rope Doormats?
Wicked Good Doormats are made from new lobster rope and the perfect choice if you like a consistent look for your outdoor doormat. We have over 35 Lobster Rope Doormat colors and styles available. With heavy duty lobster rope doormats woven from new rope, you won’t ever have to replace your outdoor mats regularly, saving yourself time and money while helping reduce waste.
Recycled Lobster Rope Doormats are woven from upcycled lobster rope (we've been working with local Maine lobstermen to keep these beautiful used rope out of landfills now for over 15 years!), so no two recycled rope doormats are ever the same.
Both of our doormat collections are designed to be fast-drying, weatherproof, easy to clean, and resistant to mold and mildew. They are both super durable and will last for years to come.
Cleaning and Care of Wicked Good Doormats

How do your Lobster Rope Doormats trap dirt?
