If you have ever install stall mats before you know they are heavy, hard, unforgiving on your back and quite often more trouble than they are worth. We discovered the Interlocking Royal Mats at the Tractor Supply Company show in Nashville when we were out visiting with the Absorbine group. Their stall mat kit was the coolest and easiest installation of mats! Heavy duty yet easy to cut with a few passes! With the interlocking there are no edges to rub and shift when the horse moves around. We installed these mats five months ago and still there is no lifting or shifting what-so-ever. AWESOME!
