Gym Flooring Accessories

Where rubber tiles stop and bare floor begins, an exposed edge looks unfinished and catches feet, bar plates and vacuum cleaners. Edge ramps (from £9.99) create a bevelled transition down to the surrounding floor, and corner pieces (£9.99) complete the junction wherever two ramped edges meet. Together they give an island of tiles — a lifting platform, a cardio zone, a half-covered garage — the finished look of a professionally fitted floor. Edge ramps are made for 15mm, 20mm, 30mm and 40mm rubber gym flooring and corner pieces for 20mm, 30mm and 40mm, so choose the size that matches your tiles for a flush transition.

On most floors the sheer weight of rubber keeps tiles put, but high-traffic walkways, doorway thresholds and spots where equipment gets dragged can slowly push joints apart. Interlocking connectors, from just £0.99, lock neighbouring tiles together so seams stay tight without any mess — and unlike glue, they let you lift and relay tiles whenever your layout changes. Where a truly permanent bond is needed, such as ramps and corners on busy thresholds, the 500ml spray contact adhesive (£6.99) fixes rubber directly to the subfloor. Connectors fit 20mm, 30mm and 40mm tiles only: 10mm and 15mm tiles have a lay-flat base and do not take them. Adhesive is best kept for edges, ramps and problem spots.

The easiest way to get an accessories order right is to plan it alongside your tiles. Our Gym Flooring Calculator works out how many square metres your space needs, and from there the finishing pieces are simple: measure the exposed edges of your layout for ramps and add a corner piece wherever two ramped sides will meet. Still comparing thicknesses or finishes? A rubber flooring sample (free, you only cover the shipping) lets you check the material in your own space before committing. Ordering everything together also means the whole floor turns up ready to fit — see our delivery information for UK timescales.

A rubber floor should outlast most of the equipment standing on it, and a little upkeep keeps it looking new. This collection includes the essentials: the daily rubber floor cleaner (from £7.99), a microfibre spray mop made for rubber surfaces, and a protective coat that guards hard-working areas. Sorted early, maintenance takes minutes a week rather than a weekend of restoration later.
