Trolley for a single shortmat bowls carpet
onlybowls.com product eq021

A simple trolley on roller castors for moving one carpet bowls carpet, or a short mat bowls carpet. It is not a good idea to store a carpet on this as the weight of the carpet would cause permanent indentations, but it is useful for moving a carpet from, say, a storage area into a hall. It is strong enough to take any make of carpet up to 45ft x 6ft

Handling unit for bowls carpets up to 4m wide
onlybowls.com product cp120

This unit, or rather these units (you are buying the pair of units plus a centre spindle) are used to transport carpets that are between 6ft and 4m wide, most often for carpets that are 4m wide.

The procedure is that the carpet is rolled onto the strong centre spindle by hand as usual. This is made easier if you use our Velcro products to attach the carpet to the spindle (see below). A handling unit is inserted at each end of the spindle and the handles used to jack the carpet off the floor.The whole assembly of two units and carpet is then wheeled to the desired location where the carpet should be lowered to the floor. A carpet can be raised and moved by one person, but it is a lot easier with two or more.

When putting the carpets out the units are reinserted and the carpet raised. It it then wheeled into position, lowered and unrolled as usual.

Verde shortmat bowls carpet handling units
onlybowls.com product cp100

Short mat bowls carpets are heavy and difficult to roll and store, unless you use a handling unit. The Verde units can handle 1, 2 or 3 mats. Check the instructions before using the unit - some types of carpet are rolled with the underside to the outside, others the other way.

Verde handling units are shipped in flat-pack form, so a certain amount of assembly is needed on site (tools are supplied, basically it's screwdriver and spanner).

50mm Velcro bowls carpet strap
onlybowls.com product eq090

This strap is 6ft long, made mainly of 50mm velcro loop material with a six inch length of velcro hook material stitched to one end. On the other end is a plastic loop. Throw the strap around the carpet, push the free end through the plastic loop, bend the strap back on itself and bingo! your carpet is securely strapped. Long enough for any carpet. A carpet needs at least two of these to secure it, but we'd recommend three for a six foot wide carpet (see next product).

50mm Velcro self-adhesive loop x 25m
onlybowls.com product eq070v

Velcro is a 'touch and close' fastening made from two tapes with different surfaces. One is soft, covered with a nylon fuzz - called the 'loop'. The other side is firmer and covered with tiny nylon hooks - called the 'hook', these catch in the loop when pressed together.

A 25m roll of self-adhesive loop Velcro. This is used in shortmat or carpet bowls to attach to a central core. Then using hook type Vecro strips on the carpet, the carpet is attached to the core and rolled. Widely regarded as the best method of handling shortmat carpets and carpet bowl carpets.

Supplied in black only. For three mats you would need about 11 metres of hook velcro and about 2 metres of self adhesive loop velcro. Over time the Velcro will pick up dust, fluff, bits of cotton and gradually lose its effectiveness, as all Velcro bonds tend to do.

50mm Velcro hook x 25m
onlybowls.com product eq076v

Velcro is a 'touch and close' fastening made from two tapes with different surfaces. One is soft, covered with a nylon fuzz - called the 'loop'. The other side is firmer and covered with tiny nylon hooks - called the 'hook', these catch in the loop when pressed together.

A 25m roll of hook Velcro. This is used in shortmat or carpet bowls in two ways. Firstly, using hook strips on the carpet, the carpet is attached to the loop strips on the core and rolled. Secondly, once the mat is rolled, two or three strips each about 1 metre long are used as straps to keep the mat bound together. Widely regarded as the best method of handling shortmat carpets and carpet bowl carpets.

Supplied in black only. For three mats you would need about 11 metres of hook velcro and about 2 metres of self adhesive loop velcro. Over time the Velcro will pick up dust, fluff, bits of cotton and gradually lose its effectiveness, as all Velcro bonds tend to do.
