How to Cover a Worn Landing Carpet with a Landing Rug · Step 5 of 6
In this video
Once the rug is completely flat, the final step is to secure it to the floor to prevent future movement or curling. Use indoor carpet tape, which is a very sticky double-sided adhesive. Cut pieces of the tape and apply them to the underside of each corner of the rug, and optionally along the middle of each side. Leave the backing on the top side of the tape for now. Once all tape pieces are in place, carefully position the rug in its desired location in the room. Then, lift each corner or side where tape is applied, remove the protective backing from the tape, and firmly press the rug down onto the floor to secure it.
