Heat trak mats

 

At our home
(not a product photo)

This winter we splurged on some Heat Trak snow & ice melting mats for the front ramp. Other half would be away for 2 weeks in January and I was dreading it.

These mats are soooo worth it.

One day there was black ice at the gargage door out back. I was slipping all over the place getting my bike out.

As I approached the house at the end of the ride, I was dreading going back there. Then I realized the ramp was now the safest place to enter the house. So parked the trike there and #1 son to put in garage for me.

We got 4 @ 30" x 30" walkway mats that interconnect and a remote.

They have a gritty side that gives extra traction.

I'm thinking we need a couple of step mats for the back door as that's the final death zone.

These things are life-changing.

I've really begun to appreciate these more with use.

I bought the 'low profile, sharp' type.

Reduce a lot of slippage on polish concrete tiles in the garage.

And they really bite into the aluminum door jam.

They are indeed sharp, so I try to be careful to take them off close to the door so they don't rip up the floor.

Possibly the best everyday ice cleats I've ever bought. Made in the Yukon.
