Should I make a rug that extends past the dining chairs when pulled out?

Wide Carpets, Rugs & Custom Sizes · Historic BCC Q&A archive

Rugs that extend beyond the dining chairs generally improve comfort, protect flooring and help define the dining area. A commonly recommended guideline is to allow approximately 60–75 cm beyond the table edges so chairs remain on the rug when pulled out; this creates a cohesive look and avoids frequent snags. Consider traffic patterns, table shape and the rug’s pile height when choosing size. For custom sizing, material advice and to view samples, contact BCC Taren Point showroom on 02 9526 6421 or visit Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW.
