Ideal runner size
That leaves 10 to 15 cm of floor each side and 15 to 30 cm at each end of the usable floor ( after door swings and obstacles).
This hall is very narrow for a runner. Check the width at the narrowest point, including skirting and radiators.
Your hall is longer than our longest runner ( cm). Two matching runners with an even gap between them often look better than one that falls short.

The rules behind it
- Width: 20 to 30 cm narrower than the hall, leaving 10 to 15 cm of floor each side.
- Length: 15 to 30 cm short of each end of the usable floor.
- Doors: a door that swings into the hall needs its arc kept clear; we allow 80 cm per door, which you can adjust by measuring your own door.
- If your hall is much longer than our longest runner, two matching runners with an even gap often look better.
Runner sizes and prices are live from our catalogue, and each result links to the product with that size selected. More detail in the hallway runner size guide.
Frequently asked questions
How wide should a hallway runner be?
About 20 to 30 cm narrower than the hall. A 95 cm hall suits a runner of roughly 65 to 75 cm.
How long should a hall runner be?
Long enough to leave 15 to 30 cm of floor at each end, after keeping door swings clear.
Should a runner go under the door?
Only if the door clears the runner and underlay comfortably. Otherwise keep the runner outside the door swing.
