Our universal entry mat is designed to be placed on top of your living section mat at the sliding door entry point. This mat serves two primary purposes. First, it helps to minimize the wear on high-traffic entry point. Second, it can be placed on the ground directly in front of your sliding entry door. ***Note, we utilize our latex-backed material for this mat to minimize movement when inside the vehicle. This backing is NOT waterproof, so it must be allowed to fully dry out (if it has absorbed ANY moisture) prior to placing it back on top of your living mat.
