Matwell frames, also known as entrance mat frames, are metal holders designed for entrance matting or floor coverings in place within a recessed area in the floor. They provide a neat and finished appearance to the entrance area while also helping to secure the mat in place. Commonly used in commercial buildings, offices, retail spaces, and other high-traffic areas to enhance the aesthetics and functionality of entrance areas.
