Provide a comfortable landing surface and prevent the unauthorized use of your climbing wall with the easy-to-use Cordless Mat Locking® System. To “close” the climbing wall, simply push mats against the climbing wall and hang the nylon webbing loops on the specially-designed holds. Next, push the red security latch up and lock by turning the security bolt. Mats fasten to each other and attach to the base of the wall with nylon tabs. Our “No Climbing” decal is printed on one side to further show that the climbing wall is closed. Traverse wall mats and top rope mats are available.
Our Standard Climbing Mats are available in two thicknesses:
- 2″ Standard Safety Mats: 2″ of polyethylene foam is enclosed in an 18-oz. polyester-reinforced vinyl covering.
- 3″ Premium Safety Mats: With 3″ of polyethylene foam enclosed in an 18-oz. polyester-reinforced vinyl covering, these mats provide an extra inch of landing surface. These industry-leading mats have been tested and meet ASTM Standard F1292-04 (with a critical height of 8′ at an ambient temperature of 66° F).
The Mat Locking® System includes specially-designed Mat Locking® Hand Holds, mounting hardware, locking tool and installation instructions. 4′ x 6′ sections are available in red or blue. Custom colors and sizes are available for an additional cost. Installation required.
Some jurisdictions require mats with various Fire Retardant properties. Please consult your local Fire Marshall to ensure you are requesting the proper safety surfacing.

FAQs
How do I know which mats I need?
Every local jurisdiction is tasked with enforcing their own local fire safety code. Please check with your local Fire Marshal or Building Safety Manager to see which standards need to be met for your building.
What safety standards do your mats meet?
All our Safety Mats have been safety tested for impact attenuation and for wall padding. Standard Safety Mats meet or exceed the performance requirements of ASTM F1292-04 and ASTM F2440-11. FR Safety Mats and Ultra FR Safety Mats meet or exceed the performance requirements of ASTM F1292-04 and ASTM F2440-04.
What fire retardant options do you have?
Our climbing mats are available in three options to meet the needs of local building codes. Be sure to check with your fire marshal to see if there are any codes to which you must comply.
Standard Safety Mats
Our standard climbing mats.FR Safety Mats
Meet the ASTM E-84 standard test method for surface burning characteristics of building materials at a Class C.Ultra FR Safety Mats
Have our highest fire rating and pass the NFPA 286 Standard Methods of Fire Tests for Evaluating Contribution of Wall and Ceiling Interior Finish to Room Fire Growth.Both types of FR Mats are available in two- or three-inch thicknesses.
Please keep in mind that not all Fire-retardant Safety Mats are made equal. Individual components may meet testing criteria, but to satisfy the code requirements the safety mats must be tested as a complete unit. We have had all our safety mats tested as complete units and can provide test results upon request.
What qualities should I look for in a Fire Retardant Safety Mat?
It is important to note that not all Fire Retardant Safety Mats are made equal. Individual components may meet testing criteria, but in order to satisfy the code requirements the safety mats must be tested as a complete unit. We have had all of our safety mats tested as complete units and are happy to provide test results upon request.
How far out do the mats need to extend for safety purposes?
We follow Playground Standards for fall zones which state that the fall zone should be 6'. Therefore all of our mats extend 6' from the climbing wall.
How do the mats mount to the wall?
Mats attach to the base of the wall with the heavy-duty tabs and accompanying bolts. Mats attach at the top of the climbing wall by the nylon webbing loops that are hung onto the specially-designed holds and locked off by a red security latch that is engaged with a few turns of the security wrench.
What if my wall is a custom size, can I have mats made to fit my wall?
Yes! We do make custom mat sizes. If you purchase mats at the same time as your climbing wall, there is no extra charge for an unusual size.
What if my wall goes around a corner, is there a matting solution for this?
Yes, we can create mat systems that wind around corners.
Can I have my mats made in a custom color?
Yes, for an additional cost we have a variety of custom colors from which to choose.
Can the Mat Locking System be used behind a basketball hoop?
Our 2" and 3" safety mats that are part of the Mat Locking System provide excellent protection. Standard Safety Mats exceed minimum performance requirements of ASTM F2440-11 Standard Specification for Indoor Wall/Feature Padding. FR Safety Mats and Ultra FR Safety Mats exceed minimum performance requirements of ASTM F2440-04 Standard Specification for Indoor Wall/Feature Padding. The closed climbing wall can be behind a basketball hoop. You do not need to build your climbing wall on either side.
How do I clean my safety mats?
Place mats in the down position on the floor. If needed, vacuum mats.
Wipe mats clean using a soft, non-abrasive cloth or sponge and warm water or mild soap. A soft bristle brush can be used for stubborn dirt. Note: Avoid steel wool and metal bristle brushes.
303 Brand Product Cleaners, Spot Removers and Protectants can be used following their instructions. Avoid harsh cleaning products, solvents and acid-based chemicals including household cleaners, concentrated detergents, concentrated bleaches, dry cleaning fluids, industrial cleaners, waxes, petroleum distillates and silicone oils.
Allow safety mats to thoroughly dry before closing them up against the climbing wall. Next, clean the outside “closed” side of the mats using the same instructions.
I lost my Mat Locking key. How do I get a replacement?
We offer replacement mat locking keys for purchase on our website, or call us to place an order.
How do I know when I need to replace my safety mats?
Even though we make our safety mats to last, they will eventually need to be replaced. How often you use your climbing wall and the number of climbers using the wall all play a factor in the longevity of your mats. If you notice any rips, tears, soft spots, dents, worn areas or stiffness, it’s time to replace your mats and we are here to help you replace them. We can walk you through all of the options since they may have changed since you first purchased your mats.
