Matwell
If you are looking to create a matwell Quality Carpet Trims is here to help
This matwell is designed to be used with floors which require expansion, for example, engineered oak flooring or click LVT.
It can be used with the following floor types:
- Engineered oak flooring
- Laminate flooring
- Click or loose-lay luxury vinyl tiles
- Karndean floors (floating)
- Amtico floors (floating
- All other luxury vinyl tiles (floating)
For non-floating floors such as ceramic tiles and glued down vinyl tiles use our matwell frame
The product
This flooring trim is part of our premier trims range
The premier trims range is made from a base material of high-quality solid brass
Therefore, the trims are durable and won’t easily bend or dent, which is important, especially in the case of a matwell, as this is a high traffic area
This matwell is available for two different mat thicknesses, (8-12mm or 13-17mm) plus 3 different sizes of flooring expansion (11mm, 15mm or 23mm)
Choose from 10 colours and shades to suit your home perfectly, and also choose from three lengths
Please note that the trims are priced pro rata, meaning there is no price difference depending on the length you choose, the 270cm trim costs the same as 3 x 90cm trims, however, the 90cm trims usually arrive slightly quicker and are easier to handle.
Fitting Matwell
Fitting is a little detailed, however, a little extra work upfront will give you an amazing finish, superior to most other matwells you’ll find online
The videos below give you an outline of the product and there is also a detailed fitting video
The thicker your flooring the more you will need to build up your matwell well base, a guide to how much building up is required is shown in second image
If you are at all unsure about fitting this matwell, we are always available to talk, either by email or telephone, we would be more than happy to help you choose the correct size for you

Should corrosion appear, we use this finishing pad, Mirka Total Finishing pad P1500 (grey). Rub the area to remove contamination and buff up with HG copper shine cloth.
