Carpets

[JP senior]

We added the full set of Brandrup carpets soon after van purchase in 2023 and have been more than satisfied.
However, although they came with sticky strips on the back, they are not very adhesive to the floor. There are a few trip hazards particularly in the slide door area.
Have tried various double sided tapes & double sided velcro but nothing seems to 'stick' strongly.
Has anyone had this problem and if so, found a solution? I only want to do the edges.
Thanks

We did the carpet thing when we got our van. Quite quickly binned and never bothered again. Much easier to keep clean on a site with a dustpan and brush.

You need the Industrial Velcro tape.

Agree 100% on no carpets, dirty smelly dust and germ traps. Carpets are an rather English obsession, the continentals like to wash their floors (certainly where there is food) which is my preference too.

Even better than a dustpan and brush is a small vacuum, I keep a Bosch Ultimate 6 on board.

We had the same issue with ours lifting near the sliding door - ended up using 3M double-sided mounting tape on the edges and it's held up pretty well so far!
