Recessed mats

We are considering using a recessed coir walk-off mat for a LEED project. It will be recessed with a stainless border. Does this count as a roll-out mat and would require weekly maintenance? It allows for cleaning underneath so we're hoping that we do not need the weekly maintenance contract. Please advise. Thanks!

Heather, I don't have experience with this solution but it seems like it meets the LEED requirements and will not need the weekly contract.

Hi Heather   Was curious if you were successful using this method without weekly contracted maintenance? Thank you   Chad
