A Safer Home for All Ages: Why Entry Mats Matter for Kids, Seniors, and Everyone In Between

When it comes to home safety, small upgrades can make a big impact—especially at entryways where trips, slips, and uneven surfaces are common. Whether you’re welcoming young children, aging parents, or anyone in between, a safer entrance benefits everyone in your household.

One simple, effective solution? The TRANSITIONS® Angled Entry Mat from EZ-ACCESS®. Here’s why this versatile product deserves a place at every doorstep.

1. Help Prevent Trips and Falls for Kids and Seniors

Doorway thresholds can create small but dangerous obstacles. For toddlers learning to walk or seniors with reduced mobility, even a slight rise can lead to a stumble or fall. The TRANSITIONS Angled Entry Mat reduces this risk by creating a gentle, smooth incline over doorway lips or uneven transitions, making it easier and safer to move in and out.

Bonus: The mat’s slip-resistant surface adds extra protection in wet or muddy conditions, ideal for active kids coming in from the yard or adults carrying groceries.

2. Create Smooth Access for Mobility Aids

Whether it’s a stroller, rolling suitcase, walker, wheelchair, or scooter, wheels and raised thresholds don’t mix well. The TRANSITIONS Angled Entry Mat allows for smooth rolling access without the need to lift or awkwardly maneuver over a bump.

This not only helps caregivers or parents pushing strollers but also promotes independence for anyone using mobility aids to move confidently in and out of the home.

3. Reduce Wear and Tear on Floors and Door Frames

Dragging or bumping wheeled equipment (like carts, mowers, or rolling bins) over entry thresholds can damage both the equipment and your home. The mat protects door frames, entry sills, and flooring by providing a smooth transition surface, saving you money on potential repairs or replacements.

4. A Solution for Every Season

Rain, snow, dirt, or summer mud — outdoor conditions can make entryways slippery and hazardous. The TRANSITIONS Angled Entry Mat is made from durable rubber that withstands all weather while maintaining its grip and stability. This means safer access for the whole family, no matter the season.

5. Blends Seamlessly with Your Home

Designed with a low-profile, modern look, the TRANSITIONS Angled Entry Mat enhances safety without sacrificing style. Available in multiple sizes, colors, and optional “Welcome” imprint, it fits easily into any home environment, indoors or outdoors, while offering the peace of mind that comes with better access.

Make Every Entry Safer, Easier, and More Accessible

From little ones dashing outside to play, to older adults seeking stability, to guests arriving with strollers or luggage, a simple mat can make all the difference in comfort and safety.
