Often popular choices for barn stalls, gyms, basements, or garage floors, rubber provides excellent impact absorption while also being water resistant. Once rubber flooring is installed, it requires little to no maintenance, with a sweeping, vacuuming, or damp mop cleaning process, as needed.

How Many 4x6 Rubber Stall Mats Do You Need For A 10x10 Space?

Most horses will be comfortable in a 10x10 horse stall. This stall provides a safe, controlled space that can keep a horse out of the weather elements, and it can also keep his movement limited to allow him to heal from an injury. If outfitted with 4x6 rubber stall mats, it can even keep your horse more clean and comfortable.

In thinking about a 10x10 foot show or stall space, you may be wondering how many 4x6 rubber stall mats you should supply for the floor. To cover a 100 square foot space, you would need four full 4x6 rubber stall mats and another partial mat that will need to be custom cut. So plan on purchasing five 4x6 rubber stall mats to cover a 10x10 space.

sundance matsSundance Mats are ¾ inch thick and offer a non-slip pebble top that provides comfort and traction. The mats also insulate against cold and damp conditions, and they offer anti-fatigue benefits. They also reduce horse stall bedding costs. You would purchase five of these mats, which would cost approximately $288 prior to shipping. The first four mats would provide 96 square feet of coverage, and you would need to cut the fifth mat to provide the last 4 square feet of coverage. They are pretty easy to cut. As Greatmats customer Ben wrote in his review of the product, “These were not too hard to cut. I used a drywall square and box cutter and got them to fit a very crooked 400 square foot room perfectly. The mats seem invincible.”



button top matsThe Button Top mats are ½ inch thick and offer a floor for your horse that is stable - even when wet. They offer traction and are non-porous, so they are not impacted by freeze and thaw conditions. They are a really great choice for wash bays or any area that would tend to be wet and muddy. Again, you would need to buy five of these mats to cover your 10x10 foot stall, which will cost about $219 plus shipping. This is a very affordable option. You will cut the fifth mat to complete the install. Or, you can ask a customer service agent about ordering a custom size mat to complete the install, as they are available.

The ¾ inch thick product is about $56.40 each, or about $282 for the five required to cover a 10x10 space. The ½ inch thick product is about $55.75 each, or about $279 to cover a 10x10 foot space. They work great in wash areas, as the mats will stand up to being exposed to constant water. They also provide good traction.

You can easily cut a stall mat if you have a straightedge and a sharp utility knife. After marking the mat where you would like to cut it, place a 2x4 board under the area you’d like to cut. Using your straightedge as a guide, use your utility knife to score your mat. Make a series of shallow scores - allowing the cut to open as the mat folds over the 2x4 board. Continue scoring until all the way through the mat, and the mat falls away. This is the easiest method to use to cut any heavy duty rubber product. Although a power saw could be used, the friction created by the non-slip rubber material could grip the blade, resulting in rough cuts and damaged blades. In some cases, it may be helpful to spray a lubricant, such as WD-40 on the blades to reduce friction. No worries. As long as that utility knife is sharp, the scoring process is easy.

How Much Do 4x6 Rubber Gym Mats Weigh?
