Short answer
What is UnderItAll?
UnderItAll makes patented custom-cut rug pads for the design trade. Every pad is cut to your rug’s exact dimensions and perforated every 2 inches, so a designer or installer can adjust it by hand on site — no scissors, no measuring, no felt dust on a finished floor.
Why the trade specifies us
Everything about this pad is a labor decision.
Rug pads are not a product problem for design professionals. They are an install-day problem, a floor-warranty problem, and a scheduling problem. Here is what changes when the pad arrives install-ready.
No scissors on a finished floor
Pads arrive cut to your rug's dimensions. Any final adjustment is a two-second pull along a perforation line, so nothing sharp comes out in front of a client.
Install time measured in seconds
Measuring and hand-cutting felt runs twenty to forty-five minutes per rug. Peeling a perforation strip takes a fraction of that, with no cleanup afterward.
Consistent sizing, every project
One ordering rule for your whole team: order at the rug's finished dimensions. No stock-size compromise, no freehand cuts, no visible pad edges.
Cut and shipped same day
Manufacturing and cutting happen in one Georgia operation, so a custom size does not carry a lead-time penalty. Most orders arrive in one to three days.
Safe against the floors you specified
100% post-recycled felt with no latex rubber to harden or go tacky against a urethane finish. The pad that damages a floor is almost always a rubber-backed one.
Trade only, by design
Credentialed designers, firms, showrooms, retailers, and specifiers get trade pricing, a dedicated representative, and the full custom-cut size range.
Patented technology
The 2-inch perforation, explained.
Every pad leaves our facility cut to the dimensions you ordered, then scored with perforations every 2 inches along its adjustable edges. On site, you tear along a line exactly like tearing a paper towel.
Why 2 inches?
Two inches is the practical unit of error in a real room. Rugs are woven to tolerance and rooms are built to tolerance, so field adjustments almost always land within an inch or two. A 2-inch increment absorbs that variance without leaving a visible pad edge.
Why not just order a custom-cut pad?
A conventional cut-to-order pad is final. If the room or the rug is off by an inch, you are back to shears. A perforated pad is cut to order and still adjustable, which is what makes a single-visit install realistic.
Does it affect performance?
No. Grip comes from the density and surface of the felt across the full area of the pad, not from its edges. Removing a strip changes the pad’s dimensions and nothing else.
The install, side by side
- Conventional pad
- Unroll an oversized pad, measure, lay blue tape, cut felt freehand without a table, collect offcuts, vacuum the dust, then set the rug. Twenty to forty-five minutes, in front of a client.
- UnderItAll
- Unroll a pad already cut to your rug, pull a 2-inch strip if the room disagrees, set the rug. Under two minutes, no tools, nothing to clean up.
Across a six-rug residence, that difference is most of a working hour recovered on the single least flexible day of the project.
Run your own numbers
An hour here, an hour there, every month.
Twenty minutes of measuring and cutting per rug does not feel like much until you price a year of it. Add what you pay to ship pads one box at a time and the number moves again.
- Your rugs per month, your hourly rate.
- Labor and shipping recovered across twelve months.
- Free to use, and free to embed on your own site.

The pad itself
Designer quality that’s durable and comfortable, always.
- Keep it simple with two thicknesses
- Luxe 1/4 inch is the trade favorite, with the density and body most rugs want. Luxe Lite 1/8 inch handles the low-profile jobs: door clearance, transitions, layering, radiant heat. Two options, one decision, no spec sheet required.
- Rapid Relax for a smooth install
- Rolled or folded in transit, your pad lays flat in no time. No weighting it down overnight, no fighting a curled corner while a client watches. Unroll it and it settles.
- Pretty grippy, latex-free backing
- Our Daisy Grip backing locks the rug to any indoor surface without the messy residue latex leaves behind. It's the prettiest, grippiest rug pad you'll never see.
- 100% post-recycled felted fibre
- Felted from 100% post-recycled polypropylene, polyester, and nylon. Cutting to order means we're not producing remnants nobody can use. A conscious choice against latex, and a shorter story than most eco claims because it's the whole story.

How it works
Three steps. No scissors.
From specification to a rug on the floor, with nothing in between that requires a blade.
- Step 01
Order at the rug's size
Enter the rug's finished dimensions and choose Luxe 1/4 inch or Luxe Lite 1/8 inch. That is the whole specification decision.
- Step 02
We cut and ship same day
Your pad is cut to order and perforated in 2-inch increments, then shipped the same or next business day from Georgia.
- Step 03
Unroll, peel, done
On site, unroll the pad, pull a perforation strip if the room requires it, and set the rug. Under two minutes, start to finish.
Answers
The questions the trade asks most
Short answers to the questions designers, retailers, and specifiers ask before they open an account.
How do perforated rug pads work?
The pad is cut to your rug's dimensions at the factory, then scored with perforations every 2 inches along the adjustable edges. On site you tear along a perforation line to remove a 2-inch strip, exactly like tearing a paper towel. No scissors, no measuring, no dust.
What is a scissorless rug pad install?
A scissorless install means the pad reaches its final size without a cutting tool. Because the pad ships cut to your rug size and perforated in 2-inch increments, any final adjustment is done by hand. Nothing sharp comes out on a client's floor.
Can rug pads be custom cut?
Yes. Every UnderItAll pad is cut to order at the dimensions you provide, then perforated in 2-inch increments for final adjustment. There is no stock-size compromise and no in-store cutting table involved.
Why use a custom-cut rug pad instead of cutting from a roll?
Cutting from a roll costs labor, produces scrap you pay to dispose of, and rarely yields a straight edge on felt. A custom-cut pad arrives at the right size with a factory edge, and the 2-inch perforations still allow field adjustment.
What rug pad thickness should I specify?
Luxe 1/4 inch is the trade default: it adds cushion, body, and acoustic damping under most rugs. Luxe Lite 1/8 inch is for low-profile situations such as door clearance, transitions, layered rugs, and thin flatweaves.
Can rug pads be resized during installation?
Yes. That is the point of the perforations. If the room or the rug measures differently than expected, pull along a perforation line to remove a 2-inch strip. It takes seconds per side and requires no tools.
How much time do perforated rug pads save on an install?
Measuring, taping, and hand-cutting a felt pad to a rug typically runs twenty to forty-five minutes per rug, plus cleanup. A perforated pad needs seconds per adjusted side and no cleanup, so most teams recover the better part of a working hour on a multi-rug install.
What tools do I need to install the pad?
None. Unroll the pad, let it relax for a moment, pull along a perforation line if the room requires adjustment, and set the rug on top. No shears, knives, tape, or adhesive.
Do rug pads protect hardwood floors?
Yes, when the material is right. A felt pad lifts the rug off the floor so grit cannot grind into the finish, cushions furniture load, and stops the rug from sliding and abrading. The risk comes from latex- and rubber-backed pads, which harden and break down over time and can leave a residue on a finish.
Can a rug pad void a floor's warranty?
It can. Many hardwood and LVP manufacturers exclude damage caused by pads with latex, rubber, or adhesive backings, which degrade over time and can discolor a finish. A latex-free felt pad avoids that category of failure entirely.
