Original price was: $38.89.$32.90Current price is: $32.90.
Product Overview
The Gorilla Grip Extra Strong Rug Pad Gripper, measuring 6×9 feet (72 inches x 108 inches), is engineered to deliver uncompromising stability for area rugs on smooth indoor flooring. Whether you’re securing a runner in a busy hallway or stabilizing a living room mat, this non-slip underpad prevents shifting, bunching, and sliding—enhancing both safety and comfort. Ideal for homes with children, pets, or seniors, it offers peace of mind by reducing tripping hazards and maintaining consistent rug placement over time.
Founded in 2014 by two working moms and pet owners, Gorilla Grip has spent over a decade refining functional, high-performance home solutions. Their philosophy centers on creating products that solve real-world problems with durability and ease of use. This rug pad reflects that mission: combining industrial-strength grip with everyday practicality to support active households without added stress. Customers consistently highlight its reliability, noting how it performs under daily wear while requiring minimal maintenance.
What sets this pad apart is its adaptability. Unlike rigid, one-size-fits-all alternatives, it can be easily cut to fit custom shapes or undersized rugs using standard scissors or a utility knife—making it suitable for entryways, under furniture legs, or along door thresholds. Its seamless integration into various spaces ensures your rug stays exactly where you want it, no matter the layout or traffic pattern.
Key Features
- Extra Strong Grip: Engineered with a high-friction surface that firmly anchors rugs to the floor, significantly reducing movement even in high-traffic zones. This minimizes slips, trips, and accidental rug displacement.
- Customizable Fit: Can be precisely trimmed to match any rug size or shape—ideal for irregular layouts, partial coverage needs, or specialty mats like bath runners or kitchen strips.
- Durable Performance: Constructed to endure years of daily use without losing effectiveness. Resists compression, tearing, and breakdown from foot traffic, pet claws, or repeated repositioning.
- Multi-Surface Compatibility: Works reliably on smooth, hard flooring types including tile, hardwood, vinyl, and laminate. Not recommended for carpeted surfaces or uneven textures.
- Tool-Free Installation: Simply unroll, position under your rug, and enjoy instant stability. No adhesives, tapes, or complex setup required—just effortless placement.
Technical Specifications
- Dimensions: 6 feet wide by 9 feet long (72″ x 108″)—provides ample coverage for most standard area rugs.
- Material Composition: Not specified in source content; however, user feedback indicates it maintains structural integrity after cutting and repeated use.
- Cutting Capability: Easily trimmed with household tools such as scissors or a utility knife without compromising adhesive properties or overall performance.
- Recommended Floor Types: Smooth, non-porous surfaces only—including polished tile, sealed hardwood, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and engineered laminate.
- Brand Heritage: Established in 2014 by two co-founders who identified gaps in everyday product reliability, particularly for families managing pets and children.
Benefits & Use Cases
This rug pad excels in environments where stability directly impacts safety and usability. In living rooms or bedrooms with frequent foot traffic, it keeps rugs flat and secure—eliminating the frustration of constantly readjusting mats after vacuuming or rearranging furniture. For entryways and hallways, it prevents rugs from curling at the edges or shifting when doors open and close, protecting both the rug and the flooring beneath from excessive wear.
Families with young children will appreciate the added layer of protection against slips during early walking stages or playtime. Similarly, pet owners benefit from reduced rug movement caused by energetic dogs or cats darting across rooms—ensuring their furry companions don’t disrupt the mat’s position mid-sprint. Elderly individuals navigating transitional spaces also gain confidence knowing their footing remains steady beneath them.
Beyond safety, the pad helps extend the life of both your rug and underlying floor. By minimizing friction-related damage from constant sliding or bunching, it reduces the need for replacements and preserves the aesthetic appeal of your interiors. Unlike temporary fixes that degrade quickly, this underpad maintains consistent performance over years of regular use, making it a smart investment for busy homes.
Important Notes
Designed strictly for indoor application—never place on outdoor surfaces, textured carpets, or uneven terrain such as concrete slabs or shag carpeting. Adhesion strength may diminish if used on porous, dusty, or excessively soft substrates.
While the pad can be cut to size, exercise caution during trimming to avoid splitting layers or exposing underlying materials. Always test a small section first to ensure clean edges and preserved grip function.

Rugs donât move
This rug pad really grips and holds your rugs down tight! Easy to cut to fit and works great. I have quite a few of these in my house on tile and hardwood floors

This Rug Pad Gripper Actually Works (With Tips To Ensure Adhesion)
I am so happy with these rug grippers by Gorilla Grip! To ensure both the rug gripper and rug remain in place, below are a few tips, which — by trial and error — worked perfectly for us.I have several thick throw rugs in my various bathrooms, each with a so-called non-skid rubber-like coating on the bottom, all of which never stayed in place. I lost count of the number of times I purchased similar rug grippers to this one (but never before by Gorilla Grip) — from Bed, Bath & Beyond, Walmart, etc. Frustratingly, NONE held the rugs or the grippers in place, i.e., not only would the rug still move, but then the (other brand) grippers would “sneak out” beyond the border of the rug and look “tacky”.These rug grippers were delivered on 10/26/2024, and we put them in place that day. Today is 12/30/2024, and they have not budged even a half inch after experimenting with different options and finding a solution that worked. TIPS:1) We cut each rug gripper in a rectangle shape to almost exactly ONE INCH from the edge all around each rug (you will need that small uncovered border near the edge of each rug not protected by the gripper pad for this solution to work).2) We first tried professional-grade MASKING TAPE. It did not stick at all to the non-stick rug bottom and it popped right off. Then we tried ProTape’s professional PAINTER’S TAPE. That also did not adhere the non-stick rug bottom, and it, too, popped right off.3) On our third try, we added a continuous strip of GORILLA TAPE (Mini Duct Tape To-Go, 1″ x 10 yd Travel Size), not their two-sided tape (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001E5ZWT4/). We placed the MIDDLE of the Gorilla Tape over the rug gripper so that one-half inch of it covered the UNCOVERED border of the rug bottom, and the other half-inch was OVER the rug gripper.4) We are using the pet tool of a Black & Decker hand-vac to vacuum each rug on a weekly basis (if the rugs are visibly dirty and need to be washed, you likely will need to remove the Gorilla tape and rug gripper and see if the tape adheres after the rug is fully dry).One, I cannot say what the success rate would be if we did not take the extra step of using the Gorilla Tape. Two, I have never purchased woven/cotton rugs, such as those with fringed edges, so I don’t know if our solution will work with them . Thus far, however, I am more than pleased that my rugs are not slipping and sliding, and that the rug grippers do not show beyond the edges of the rugs. I highly recommend this product.

Works Fine, Good for Dogs, but Requires Occasional Adjustments. Requires pressure to work.
Had the product for a year now and no major issues. It stops the rug from sliding when you walk on it.Pros:Got it because my dog likes to gallop and slide across a hallway rug while chasing things. The product does a good job keeping things in place, but will occasionally bunch up underneath in a way that I notice while walking over. The worst is when the dog is kicking the rug in it’s sleep.I do have to readjust the rug every so often, probably once a month. It will peak out after vigorous running across it, but it’s a minor thing that only takes a minute.Dog hair doesn’t seem to affect it. I have a little build up under the grip pad, but there’s still no slipping.Cons:I have noticed that it slips easily when pushed from the side. My conclusion is that this product is most effective when it is being squished. I’ve seen a few people in the comments who used with with a throw rug on a couch and this doesn’t seem to be the product for that. It’s not inherently sticky, so it will slide more easily on smooth surfaces if it’s not being squished. That being said, I used to be able to run and jump on the rug and it would slide across the floor. Now it barely moves.It does seem to be degrading slowly though. It’s probably from the dog kicking it, but the little foam balls on top are slowly coming off. It’s only a few so far, and performance hasn’t been affected.This product would probably be most effective if it was attached to the rug with a sticky backing, preventing the two from moving independently.

easy to customize, super cushioned
The 5×7 rug pad has plenty of extra material to trim as needed to fit seamlessly under my 5×7 rug. It keeps it from slipping and adds some nice additional cushioning. I was considering just getting some “carpet tape” to keep my rug from moving, but I was worried about residue on my floors and rug. I was a bit hesitant about a low-tech rug pad like this, but it works great – no bulk, no debris, A+

Grips the rug & hardwood floor
No more slip and slide.We stacked the gorilla grip over an oval braided rug and cut the oval rug about an inch smaller rug.It was inexpensive and works great!

Overall good product, with reservations
The Gorilla Grip Extra Strong Rug Pad Gripper does a decent job at keeping rugs in place on hard floors. Itâs thick enough to add a bit of cushioning, and the slip resistance works well initially. I do like that it can be used on rugs with uneven surface, where rug tape won’t work. However, over time, I noticed the pad tends to lose some of its grip, especially in high-traffic areas.Another downside is that the pad was slightly larger than my 2×3 rug, so I had to trim it, which was inconvenient. While it offers some protection for hardwood floors, itâs not as effective as I had hoped in preventing scratches or rug movement entirely.Overall, itâs a good product for light use, but it may not be the best choice for heavy-duty needs or high-traffic areas.

Stays in place when stepped on
This works better than expected. I ordered a second, larger, one. It’s not sticky, it is just not slippery. When you stand on it or, the dog runs across it, the pressure on the rug holds it in place.

Secure your runner/rugs to keep in place!
I purchased these to go under my runner rugs because the dogs constantly had the runners all over the place. They work perfectly to secure to rugs to the floor.They worked so well I ordered more for the rugs in front of the doors. A must if your dogs tear through the house like my 3 do!

What a great product. Was very easy to trim to size of my area rug. Placement on the floor was so easy…slid easily into place. And when the reg was added, I was easily able to make a few adjustments by simply holding the rug and pad together. I was then wondering if it’s so easy to move, how will it hold the rug in place…but no worries…it doesn’t budge at all, with foot traffic nor when vacuuming!! Before I got this great pad, every time I walked on the rug, it moved out of place. Solved! And added little bonus, when I opened the package, there was no odor, like with some new rubber products.

Realmente funciona, es antiderrapante y además, le suma un poco de volumen a mi tapete. Gracias

This is my 3rd attempt to find something to stop my rug moving on the hard floor. Tried tape and other rug grips. This is perfect, adds extra cushion, doesn’t ride up under the rug and most certainly stops the rug moving.

Works like a charm. No more slipping and sliding area carpets.
