hi depends on thickness of the carpet 3 types of grippers short pin recommended mediun pin and long pin.also you get wood grippers or concrete grippers depends on your floor.thanks ozzy fitter.

Hi if using underlay yes. If not you dont need them you can use spray glue. Or also can depend of the thickness of the carpet. And just standard grippers will be fine.

Hi Carol, I’d highly recommend Gripper rods for any staircase not only for wear purposes but, for safety. Gripper rods should be installed with underlay. You should check the pile of your carpet. If you have a short piled carpet I’d recommend short pin gripper as to not catch your toes on the pins when travelling up and down the stairs as this can be painful. However, make sure you get the right gripper rods for the right area. Most professionals should have stock of various gripperods so always mention it to your installer before arrival to avoid disappointment. I hope this helps? Any further questions please feel free to get in contact. All the best and good luck. Scott

Yes ordinary will be fine but it is dependent on whether you are having underlay or not. Thanks

Hi with feltback carpet you must ensure you are using underlay with the carpet as the would become visible through the carpet without it. A short pin gripper would also need to be provided as you would find normal pin will come through the carpet and will prick you foot as you walk up.

Hi, grippers are to be used only when underlay is also being installed. if that is the case then you should aim to purchase low pin gripper for felt back carpet. This will help to avoid stabbing your heel on the grippers as you walk down the staircase. If no underlay is being installed then a good contact adhesive will suffice. Hope this helps!

Hi, if you are using underlay with the carpet then grippers are essential, ideally low pin gripper as this will prevent the spikes coming through and catching your toes! If you are not using underlay then it can just be fixed with a spray/contact adhesive. Hope this helps.
