Do these mats have some kind of spikes on underside?I want to use these spike-side up as a way to keep my pups off the furniture.

They do, but, I don't think they would be strong enough to keep the pups off the furniture. They were not strong enough to stay attached to the carpet in my car. Good luck! I gave up and just put blankets on the furniture and let the pups sit on the blanket. I have 5! Ugh!

Spikes are there but they are not sharp at all as a result they didn't stick to the carpet. I doubt if they will work in your case to keep the pups off.

They do, although they are very small and not at all sharp. I would describe them more as 'nubs' than spikes.

They aren't exactly spikes but one of my dogs wouldn't walk on them, the other one didn't seem to even notice them.

Hi Karen. It depends on the size of your dogs. Unless they are very small they will figure it out and jump over it as my 2 cats did. But I put two mats widthwise across the door to my carpeted dining room and the extra width was too much area for them to easily breach.... so it worked for me. Also the mats were very effective to keep the little rascals of the sofa... bed... whatever. I would recommend them. Jan M.

No problem. They ship with spike-like feet as well as padded for hard floors too. The spikes would sink into your carpet for stability.

I wouldn't say so, but mine sit against a wall next to the fridge so they are pretty protected from tipping. Although , the dogs do stick their noses in to look for goodies and I haven't had them tip over yet. Hope that helps.

No Once installed they stay put from the spikes on the underside onto the carpet, the edges tend to roll up a littlle bit but for the most part they are really nice, saves your car from messes

Possibly, they are hard plastic outside. You could always add a piece of felt or a towel under to protect wood. Otherwise, they are the best knee pads we've found yet [20+ years in the flooring biz] and well worth the money

These pads will definitely hold the bar stools in place and they do not have adhesive on the sides, however because the size of the stool legs may be smaller than the pads it is possible that dog hairs could adhere to the part of the pad that is not underneath the bar stool. Hope this helps.

Mine are on carpet. However, they tend to be very well made on the bottom of the legs. Don't feel that would be a problem.

I have found you really don't need the spikes. Out of doors it might be an issue as I find mine tends to blow over but in a garage it should not be a problem. I use the small caloway mat (about a square foot or so that I hold down on with a 30 or 40 penny nail. It's less expensive than a bigger mat though you might have problems anchoring it on a concrete floor. Though you could nail it to a large sheet of plywood.

I did textured side down as they move around less on our wood floor. I don't really think it matters if it's on carpet

They are thin and I'm sure you can put padding under them. I considered it but decided not to do that since it wasn't that important to me. I love the carpet tiles...very satisfied with my purchase.

Yes, I would guess the thickens is the same but the spikes are missing off the back. I am very pleased with the mat and it is working very well to protect my hardwood floors.

Yes, there is a bit of raised edge that catches water. However sometimes my dogs will get some on the floor as well.

If you want to keep them from moving, you can run a bead of spray foam around the baseline I did. I also placed insulation around it to prevent me jostling it out of place. I like to keep the top easily accessible so it can be found later.

Yes, the edge is rolled. There would be room for bugs to hide, but so far I haven't found that to be a problem, and I've been using my saucers for over a year. One of them is on the ground, filled with water for the rabbits, squirrels, and coyotes, but it hasn't collected any hiding spiders.

I would suggest a little paw mat in front of the box. The crystals tend to stick between their toes a little when they cover.

There actually are spikes on the bottom of the mats, they appear to be somewhat short. And the following still applies, They have heavy ribbed areas, but some minor sliding will occur.
