Hi All,

I only suggested the coir because it would clean the soles of shoes more
effectively than carpet, and as the carpet (or coir) is recessed into the
floor, would be flush with the tiles. Extended door mats in large buildings
really reduce the amount of dirt etc that needs to be swept up in lobbies. I
feel sure it would work for us.
