Yes.......I told one of the ladies at RaceDeck the general idea and she assembled the individual trim pieces.

Recently installed Racedeck in my garage and absolutely love it. I have a workbench and do a lot of metal work. The mat I had I was forever cleaning and if this was neglected, metal filings got taken into the house. I made a small mat out of Racedeck Tiles. All the metal bits drop through the...

Update: Working with RD, who have been very supportive, I have done the following. Two strips of very thin rubber,as used to line kitchen shelves, were set where the front wheels hit the floor when driving in to the garage. This helped but even with careful driving, the 'pad' moved. Then I...

RD have been most helpful in giving me two options to try. One of my boxes of tiles got lost in shipping so there is nothing I can do until they arrive and I will update this thread later.

I don't know how a photo would help but have included two. Shot of garage door showing slope up to threshold. and shot of floor.

Well I have split it in half so I can man handle it back into position but not going to do anything until consultation with the engineers at RD. I like the idea of anchoring the end opposite the door. It can still expand and contract in 3 directions, but held firmly on this one end.This would be...

Yes.......basically it's a 16x18 floating pad. Built in cabinets down one side and large metal lathe etc on the other. No way I will move the machinery.

Well I did my research and installed a 16ft by 18ft Racedeck floor. Used standard 12x12 Diamond tiles on a flat, painted and level concrete floor. There is a slight slope, 3ft before the door. When I drove my front wheel drive VW into the garage, the whole 16x18 floor moved forwards towards the...
