BTW Loew's carries an indoor/outdoor carpet runner by the yard that works beautifully on outside ramps, slippery decks, etc. In fact it works so well that ours is not 4 years old and we will continue to use it after Echo is gone. It has ridges, and we simply stapled it to the deck, and it's not expensive.
I have this, too. Dunno if this is the exact same kind, but here it is:
I totally cannot figure out how to make this bigger...or actually put in the image and not a link...hubby made me a special program that I normally upload from...hd crashed...had to use Flickr for first time.:shrug: ***Fixed it!***
And one more...so you can see it more of it:
It's wider than it looks...the edge is actually blocked from view by the counter. :tongue: I have runners of it by both the front and back doors-no wiping muddy paws for me -and something very similar on the front porch. It's about 3 ft wide, and doesn't show anything (unless you have white dogs!). It doesn't snow on the porch, so can't tell you what it's like in the snow. :shrug: The only maintenance needed seems to be vacuuming, and my cat thinks it is great for scratching, so parts of it are now fuzzy. It comes backed with rubber (well, it used to; the second pic is this kind), and without backing (the first pic)...I have both. And it comes in both black and dark grey...both colors work equally well to hide stuff.
