Question

What can I use to prevent my couch from sliding on sleek tile flooring without using an area rug?

Answer 1

Carla,

I think Joy has the same stuff.  We used a non skid liner for our shelves on our boat.  Rubbery and a bit nubby.  you should find this at any hardware or marine supplier.

Answer 2

Rubber pads on the feet should work.  Use glue vs screws or nails to prevent scratches on the floor.

Answer 3

summers idea may work but also  try cutting sandpaper to size and gluing it. I'm not sure if it will work but try it. good luck.

Answer 4

Get those little rubber gripper pads that you can buy at walmart to open jars, and cut them to size.... its how I did  it on my hard wood floors!!!

Answer 5

They have stuff that is sort of rubbery and nubby, mostly used to keep rugs from slipping about. I use it to keep the dash mat on my car dash. It really has lot's of uses and would probably work pretty good for keeping your sofa in place. I looked it up on line using the search terms 'rug non slip' and I got some good results. I've found it in home stores, grocery stores, hardware stores, bargain stores and fabric stores. Good luck.

Answer 6

I saw these at Lowes

Answer 7
