Setting Up Your Proximat

Getting Started

Hard Floors

The ProxiMat acts as a suction cup on its underside to enhance stability and grip. For optimal performance, ensure that both your floor and the bottom of the mat are clean well and prepared before you begin your gaming session.

Using on Carpet

Carpet Hook Placement

To achieve optimal adhesion for the hook coins, first clean the intended attachment area with an alcohol swab. Then, peel off the backing from the coin and firmly press it onto the cleaned area of the mat surface.

PLAYING ON HIGH PILE CARPET - 3D PRINTING SOLUTION

If you have a 3D printer, we've created an STL file that you can download and print to create your own grabbers for the mat. This method will require extra velcro for attaching the 3D printed grabbers to the bottom of the mat. Ensure you clean the mat with alcohol swabs at the points where you intend to place a carpet grabber. Feel free to add as many as necessary. Using both sides of the velcro allows for easy removal of the 3D printed discs, which is convenient when you want to use the mat on hardwood floors or roll it up for storage. You can use self-adhesive velcro in various forms, such as strips, coins, or squares, as long as they are about 1.5"-2" in size. Use whichever type is readily available to you.
