Most hallways and stair runs work best with a 4–6 inch margin of bare floor on each side. A 3-foot-wide hall takes a 27″ runner; a 3.5–4-foot-wide hall takes a 31″ runner. If you’re between sizes, the narrower runner usually looks more intentional.

Multiply the tread depth + riser height by the number of steps, then add 6–12 inches for the landing wrap. Always round up; we can’t add length later. If you have multiple flights, order one continuous runner so the seam doesn’t fall on a step.

Every Well Woven runner is finished with a serged edge before it ships — the same edge treatment we use on our area rugs, professionally bound to prevent fraying. The cut you receive is the finished product; nothing about it reads like a remnant.

That’s a real product, not a leftover. Customers use 1-foot cuts for samples, repair patches, and custom edge sections — it stays in the dropdown intentionally. Most hallway buyers start at 4–8 feet.

Custom runners ship same-day if ordered by 2pm EST, then arrive in 3–7 business days. Free shipping on orders over $99.

Custom-cut runners are final sale because each one is cut to order from a continuous roll. If something arrives defective, contact us within 48 hours and we’ll replace it.

It’s weather-resistant, not weatherproof. Rain is fine; UV will fade colors over a season; standing snow or ice will shorten the rug’s life. If you can, roll it and store it dry through the deepest part of winter.

Outdoor light is strong, so no outdoor textile should promise to be fade-proof forever. These rugs are made with UV-stabilized yarn, which helps the color hold up better through bright patios, decks, and porches. For the longest life, rotate the rug occasionally and store it dry during long off-seasons.

Yes. An outdoor rug is meant for the kind of real life that happens outside: damp feet, passing showers, messy dinners, and doors that stay open. After heavy rain, let it dry flat with airflow underneath so moisture does not sit in one place.

Most days, shake it out or vacuum with suction only. For bigger messes, rinse with a garden hose, use mild soap if needed, and let the rug dry completely before putting furniture back on top. Avoid harsh cleaners; they can be harder on the yarn than the spill was.

Think of it as a rug for thresholds and open-air rooms: patios, decks, covered porches, mudrooms, kitchens, breakfast nooks, and busy entries. It is especially helpful anywhere you want pattern and softness without worrying every time someone tracks something in.

If your space gets snow, ice, or long stretches of standing moisture, yes. Roll the rug once it is fully dry and store it in a covered place until the season turns. A little weather is expected; months of trapped moisture will shorten the life of almost any outdoor rug.
