What's included?

CarpetKrin ships with all required components including:

1) Metal base-strip. Made from flexible but durable aluminum, the base-strip stabilizes the carpet. Patented Design flexes and conforms to the shape and height of your carpet during installation.

2) Peel-n-stick traction-tapes. The traction-tape is installed on top of the base-strip and provides grip and color profile.

3) Retaining screws. CarpetKrin ships with 1.25” (one and a quarter inch) WOOD screws by default, similar to what is currently underneath your carpet. Please contact us if you have CONCRETE underneath your carpet. We have special instructions and special concrete screws for when there is concrete underneath the carpet.

 

Pricing

Pricing is per strip. This allows customers to order only what they need. Longer lengths cost a bit more.

 

 

How to order

1) Measure the carpeted length of each step (longest side) and subtract 6 inches. The result is your maximum recommended length to order. This will give you 3 inches of clearance on either side. So if your stairs measure at 40 inches in length, then subtract 6 inches and order strips that are 34 inches in length. It is ok to order a shorter length and we recommend not exceeding your maximum recommended length.

Step 2. Install retaining screws per supplied instructions. Screws should not push against your feet when you stand on the Base-Strip.

Step 3. Apply peel-n-stick Bridge-Strips and/or Traction-Tape on top of installed base-strip.
